Hi, tried creating the basic hello world alert in the examples using the command console in Ubuntu --> google-alerts create --term "hello world" --delivery 'rss' --frequency 'realtime'

And got this:

  <p><b>500.</b> <ins>That’s an error.</ins>

Does anyone know what's wrong? The credentials are okay, it even says that the user is already authenticated. Please, advice.

Thank you.

Hi, does anyone know what's wrong or is having any issues at all?

sergiopedrazaags commented 2 years ago

Hi! Isn't this monitored anymore?
