Hello @nicolevanderhoeven, thanks for your scripts. However, downloadfirebase.py doesn't work on my MacBook Air with macOS Monterey 12.1.

Since I haven't module Requests, I installed pip at first, then installed Requests, and finally run your script. It says:

% python3 ./downloadfirebase.py

Though it might be because of my environment, I'm not familiar with Python so I couldn't solve this problem. Could you tell me how to fix? Thank you very much.

Hi, it seems like the script is complaining that the URL is incorrectly formed. Specifically, something with this line: /%5C?alt(.*)%5C%7D',%20line, which is part of the script. Is the script within your Obsidian vault? If so, the script may be attempting to parse itself. Could you remove it from the vault and run it again?

Thank you for quick response!
Yes I put the file in my vault. I just moved your script to out of my vault and run it, but there was still an error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./downloadfirebase.py", line 26, in <module>
    fhand = open(fileFullPath, errors='ignore')
TypeError: 'errors' is an invalid keyword argument for this function

I have the same error regarding the invalid keyord :
