Sync only Favourites #539

Closed edunhill closed 2 months ago

Is it possible to download only 'favourite' photos?

I assumed this could be achieved using the photo_album config field but I get an error. Are favourites not treated like other albums by Apple?

Is there any way to achieve this?

Thanks!

I think I may have answered my own question here - in the UK, when you access iCloud, Favourites is spelt with a u in the UI which led me to use the British spelling as the album name.

It appears this is just a UI localisation as when I amended the photo_album config field to the American spelling (favorites) the album was found and synced successfully.

Hope this helps someone in the future.
