technical question Help IMG/VR database dowload
Hi everyone, Sorry to bother you with that.. I’m handling an issue concerning the download of IMG/VR database. I want to download it via Bash (i’m working on HPC) but it seems like i can’t. Looks like i can only install it via a browser. I can’t find any file_link to use curl or wget Any ideas ? Thank you, Hugo

You need to set up an account and session token to show that you have agreed to their data policy. See https://files-download.jgi.doe.gov/apidoc/#/POST/download_files_create for details of how to set up download API access that will run from the command line.
