Cannot get GNIRS DQS files?

Question

Hello,

I am trying to get files from the GNIRS DQS file service using:

storeClient.get(fr = 'gnirs_dqs://013417.81-005036.2.txt', to = './013417.81-005036.2.txt')

But I am getting an error

['Error: The requested target URI is invalid']

Though I can see that this file exists in the file service when I do storeClient.ls('gnirs_dqs://')

Thanks for reaching out. I ran your exact code snippet under my account and the file transfer worked correctly...
Can you please check a few things:
- That the 'minus' sign in the file name is actually '-'? (sometimes, when for instance copy-pasting from a PDF, these characters might be looking the same, but aren't.
- This shouldn't matter, but for good measure: could you please try to log out and log in again, and also try to get a new token in the Jupyter notebook via:

from getpass import getpass
from dl import authClient as ac
token = ac.login(input("User name [+ENTER]: ), getpass("Password [+ENTER]: "))

Then try storeClient.get() again.

Please note that we know of one current bug that throws the "invalid URL" error when a file name has a '+' sign in it. We expect a fix very shortly.

Please let us know if your current problem was solved by the recommended steps. We will continue to help if it hasn't solved it.
