5 years ago I have an account on linkedin:learning. So it's not because I'm trying to grab them "for free" it has worked fine in the past.
EDITED: But I can confirm what you are saying even tho you supply a login and the script says it's logging in. It will only grab the free videos and not the paid ones.

5 years ago an account is needed to check the issue and make a fix for the problem if it's caused by youtube-dl.

5 years ago I get this when using cookie.txt extension:

5 years ago Guys, I was able to download using cookies after I uninstalled youtube-dl through pip and installed using pip3. In my machine, pip relates to python 2.7 and 'unicode' object has no attribute 'items' appears to be related with it.

So when it gets something that isn't str (unicode I presume) from File "/usr/local/bin/youtube-dl/youtube_dl/extractor/common.py", line 2819, in _get_cookies it tries to treat it like a SimpleCookie and invokes items() on it. Since it's not a SimpleCookie it throws.
Technically not youtube-dl's bug, but should be easy enough to code around. Note that the above snippet is from Python 2.7.12 as installed on my Linux machine so not exactly current.

5 years ago Hmm, interesting @hexerus tried the same thing (apart from the external downloader flag) and still getting the same issues!
Out of curiosity are you on a paid account or one through a partnering organisation (i.e. a uni or library)?
edit: Tried again using the aria2c download library and still no dice!
youtube-dl --cookies cookies.txt --ignore-config --hls-prefer-native --external-downloader /usr/local/aria2/bin/aria2c --write-sub --verbose -o "downloads/%(playlist)s/%(playlist_title)s-%(playlist_index)s-%(title)s.%(ext)s" "https://www.linkedin.com/learning/fusion-360-essential-training-2"

5 years ago @scgreenhalgh Well, yes, I think at this point the only logical culprit would be account type. I have a yearly premium LinkedIn account that I migrated from Lynda.com. Do you have access to Lynda? If yes, try downloading from there. I remember using a university account there and it downloaded all courses that I needed, flawlessly, using the cookies.txt.
scgreenhalgh
commented
5 years ago @hexerus yeah it does seem to point to the account type being the issue which is kind of interesting seeing that it should be pulling from the same pages! Unfortunately they forcefully migrated me over and i can no longer access lynda.com.

4 years ago Hi, I'm having the same issue as @scgreenhalgh described: my LI Learning access is not from a premium account but rather an "enterprise" one provided by a 3rd party which in my case is my employer. This basically lets me access the LinkedIn Learning via a single sign-on from outside LinkedIn itself (universities, companies, libraries, etc..) which is likely the cause of trouble.
I've been investigating the difference between what youtube-dl does now and how a browser behaves with the "enterprise" type of access and I've noticed it is all about just one missing extra header which can be seen through the browser's network inspector: x-li-identity
It looks like this is some kind of base64 encoded string containing extra entreprise account information in a format:
urn:li:enterpriseProfile:(urn:li:enterpriseAccount:<acc_number>,<unknown_number>)
there are two numbers first of which seems to be an user ID while the other one's meaning is so far unknown to me.
Anyway, to use this with youtube-dl it is possible to simply specify the header with --add-header flag and use the base64-encoded string retrieved from browser:
youtube-dl --add-header x-li-identity:<base64-goes-here> --cookies cookies.txt https://www.linkedin.com/learning/aws-for-architects-network-and-storage-design
So far I was not able to figure out where this string actually comes from so if someone has more luck it would be great start for fixing this problem within the code.

So far I was not able to figure out where this string actually comes from so if someone has more luck it would be great start for fixing this problem within the code.
I found two sources for the "x-li-identity" value:

4 years ago Hi @martin54
I just wanted to thank you for your detailed explanation. Your problem was the same as mine, and your solution worked for me as well.
To add, I am also using SSO (single sign-on) and have my personal LinkedIn account linked to my LinkedIn Learning account that uses SSO.
When explicitly using the cookies and the x-li-identity header, I was able to grab the entire playlist of video files.
Thank you again!

3 years ago lyon667 already described above the main part, how to get this working again … . In case it’s not clear yet, I wrote a more detailed step by step instruction:
My problems were:
- Could only download free public videos (e.g. only the 1st from a course, and got “ERROR: No video formats found” for the others).
- Unable to use cookies (error “AttributeError: 'unicode' object has no attribute 'items'”)
- After fixing the --cookies error, still got the error “No video formats found”
- FYI: I’m using an enterprise learning account (which is connected to my private linkedin account)
My workaround looks like this
C:\youtube-dl>python -m youtube_dl --cookies "cookies.txt" --add-header "x-li-identity:dX...Sk=" https://www.linkedin.com/learning/python-essential-training-2/hello-world[linkedin:learning] hello-world: Downloading 360p JSON metadata [linkedin:learning] hello-world: Downloading 540p JSON metadata [linkedin:learning] hello-world: Downloading 720p JSON metadata [linkedin:learning] hello-world: Downloading m3u8 information [download] Destination: Hello world-687478.mp4 [download] 100% of 4.57MiB in 00:00The essential part is:
--cookies "cookies.txt" --add-header "x-li-identity:dX...Sk="FYI:
- No need for username/password on the command line.
- The file cookies.txt + header value must be retrieved as described below.
- I'm using the source code of youtube-dl, therefore
python -m youtube_dlSolution for --cookies error “AttributeError: 'unicode' object has no attribute 'items'”
- Simply update from Python2 to Python3.
- Probably alternative solution for Python2: Edit source file “youtube_dl/extractor/common.py” as described here.
How to get a valid cookies.txt file
- Install Firefox with this Plugin
- Use Firefox to login to linkedin:learning
- Play a learning video e.g. on this page.
- Use the plugin to export the file
cookies.txtHow to get the "x-li-identity” header value
- In Firefox press Ctrl-Shift-E to open the Network Monitor (development console).
- Reload the linkedin:learning page with the video.
- In the Network Monitor, search for “/learning-api/detailedCourses”, and click on one of the lines with the HTTP requests.
- On the right side, scroll down to the request header line “x-li-identity: ...”, and copy the value to your command line option: --add-header "x-li-identity:..."
This simple javascript code works for extracting the x-li-identity for me, paste it into the the course page with developer tools console:
console.log(document.getElementsByTagName('code')[0].innerHTML.match(/"enterpriseProfileHash":"(dX.*?)"/i)[1])

Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information
The formatting of the
playlist_titleis changed. The same with thetitleit didn't always give you underscores in the filenames, just spaces. (Photoshop_CC_2018_Essential_Training_-_The_Basics) But the main issue is that it seems to download the first "section" of the videos just fine. But as soon as the new section begins it spits out this error.
