A bit of helpful advice to people trying to get the IDs #4

Closed Joshua-Baca closed 5 months ago

Joshua-Baca commented 5 months ago

Just wanted to give a bit of helpful advice to people I use FireFox, so it likely won't be different for Chrome.

Variables base_url = "https://platform.virdocs.com/rscontent/epub/XXXXXXX/XXXXXXX/OEBPS/images/page-{}.jpg"

To find the base URL in inspect element, search for

../images/page-1.jpg

This will show up as a link, so right-click it click on "Open Link In New Tab" then look at the URL. It should look something like the URL below.

https://platform.virdocs.com/private/manifest_item/XXXXXXX/XXXXXXX/YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY.jpg?AWSAccessKeyId=YYYYYYYYYYYYYY&Signature=YYYYYYYY&Expires=YYYYYYYYYY

The spot where I marked it as XXXXXXX will be the two variables that you need.

Cookies So, for the session_ID and csrftoken. For the session_ID, there's only one, don't confuse it with "sessionid". On my end I get multiple IDs for the csrftoken, just be sure you get the long csrftoken, it will be basically the same length of the session_ID.

Hope that helps someone else out.

Hi, Joshua-Baca

Thanks for the clarification on the usage with Firefox, it really is very similar to Chrome as you rightly say.
