Can the API be used for downloading media files?

A colleague is rather good in using “R” for downloading our collected data from the kobotoolbox API. But up to now he has not been able to download media files that way.

Is it also possible to download the media files using the API, as I am having problems downloading the large quantity using the ZIP-file method or even by the Firefox-DownThemAll extension method.

@BartRoelandt, pinging @dickoa for your support here.

Hi @BartRoelandt

You can try robotoolbox. There’s a kobo_attachment_download function to download all attachments, including media files.

Hope it helps.

Estimados

Con relación a este tema de mi parte probe todas las alternativas que dan como opción en Downloading Photos and Other Media — KoboToolbox documentation pero no obtengo éxito en ninguna, siempre sale error o lo que descarga esta vacio.
Alguna otra alternativa para estos inconvenietes?
