[question] How to use organization in a cli?

[harshes53]

So I have a lynda account using New York Public Library, this is the url I use to access the account: nypl.org

I tried all the possible variations for -o, can you show me how to use in a cli for a given organization link?

Thanks!

Sooo it worked, all I had to do was to change org_url in lynda/_compat.py from org_url = "https://www.lynda.com/portal/sip?org={organization}" to org_url = "https://www.lynda.com/portal/patron?org={organization}"

Thank you! 💯

@Murtadhajfadhil edit this line, replace it with your organization url. make sure {organization} is still there in URL.
