Bulk Download IssueFORUMS HOME SEARCH FORUMS

The first bulk download was gpx and the second was fit - that was not intentional as I wanted gpx.

I did not receive any error messages.

Sorted alphabetically, the gpx down load is missing the first four routes and numbers 7 & 8. And the fit version is missing #1. 

I agree with Mark and would prefer not to have the plotaroute ID number appended to the filename.

I tried this on 35 files, tagged in My Routes.

All formats dowloaded 35 files except KML whiich downloaded 34. The missing file was in the middle of the list. I tried the download many times; each KML download was the same (34 files, same missing file). Repeated just with GPX and each download was the same, 35.

Not sure if it's filename/length related. My missing file was truncated to 23 characters plus the 3 for the extension, but then, so were many others.

On this note, could something be done about the filenames after downloading? The routename 17, Unst To Lerwick ends up as 2298402_17_Unst_To_Lerw.gpx. Not sure why the filename length should be truncated, or why the random 7 digits are added. The latter means the files are not in the same alphabetical list as they are in My Routes. They can be bulk trimmed using a 3rd party app, but that's a faff.

Hope that helps

Hi Michael - yes, that does sound like an issue. What format did you select? Were there any error messages during the download?  And did you notice if it was the last routes on the list that were missing or just random ones from the list?

I just selected 28 routes and performed a bulk download. The zip file only contained 22 routes.

I thought I did something wrong so I tried a second time and received 27 routes in the zip file. The zip file size is well under 1MB so I'm not even close to approaching the max file size limit.

Is this an issue or am I missing some technique to properly bulk download?
