bash-4.2$ gallery-dl --clear-cache all
all
is not the same as ALL
in this context. This did not delete the old access_token
and therefore reused it in your next DA download attempt. It should work without 429 errors now, as access tokens are only valid for 60 minutes.
Is it at all possible to download much from Deviant Art these days?
I was downloading pictures with no problems, using gallery-dl 1.26.8, until a couple of months ago. Now I get immediate 'API responded with 429 Too Many Requests' warnings and nothing downloads.
I've looked at other issues here which mention the problem, I believe I've properly set up my API credentials and refresh-token, but the issue persists.
I can use Deviant Art 'manually' via browser with no issues, on the same IP address and account credentials.
I've got listings of configuration files and output below; I'd appreciate any help.
First of all I tried a very simple configuration file using public credentials:
This was the output when I ran gallery-dl against a public gallery:
Then I tried using my own Deviant Art account and setting up the refresh-token (I've obfuscated my client-id and client-secret):
I set up the refresh-token:
But still no joy on my run:
The most recent open issue about this Deviant Art '429 Too Many Requests' error is issue #5558, wherein it was noted that DA have significantly lowered their API limits. But I can't download anything at all. I'd think that DA might have 'blacklisted' my IP address but my manual browser downloads work fine.
Thank you for any help.
