unable to download c2l1 data prior to December 2020

[22epl2]

Hello,
Thanks for creating this great API. I'm unfortunately having trouble downloading any collect 2 level 1 data prior to December 2020. For example, I would like to download LC08_L1TP_044035_20200130_20200823_02_T1, a c2l1 scene from January 2020. landsatxplore download --username <USERNAME> --password <PASSWORD> LC08_L1TP_044035_20200130_20200823_02_T1 errors out with landsatxplore.errors.EarthExplorerError: Download is not available, as does attempting to download with the entity id using landsatxplore download --username <USERNAME> --password <PASSWORD> --dataset landsat_ot_c2_l1 LC80440342020030LGN00. I have also tried going directly to the download URL, https://earthexplorer.usgs.gov/download/5e81f14ff4f9941c/LC80440342020030LGN00/EE/, and encountered the same error. This issue does not affect data from December 2020 or later.

Hello and thanks for the bug report,

Did you try to launch the command again with the same entity ID a few minutes/hours later ? I noticed that some products are made available once requested.

I am gonna check if we have some info about download availability in the metadata returned by the API

Hi, thanks for the response. I can't say if I requested that specific product with the CLI multiple times within a few hours, but I can confirm that I requested a number of products over the API repeatedly within a few hours and also over a couple days.

I faced the same issue. The workaround is a combination of #45 and de530c1

In summary, at earthexplorer.py:

DATA_PRODUCTS_II = {

and

    try:
        url = EE_DOWNLOAD_URL.format(
            data_product_id=DATA_PRODUCTS[dataset], entity_id=entity_id
            )
        filename = self._download(url, output_dir, timeout=timeout, skip=skip)
    except:
