PDFs from Trove newspapers no longer downloading

edited yesterday at 11:26pm
Hi,
I have noticed that for the past few months, when newspaper articles are imported into Zotero from Trove (https://trove.nla.gov.au/), the article PDF is no longer automatically downloaded with the metadata. A note is created, which is helpful but the OCR on Trove's side is pretty janky and needs a lot of correction. A fix was created quite a few years ago that worked beautifully, (https://github.com/GLAM-Workbench/trove-newspapers) but it seems that whatever update Trove has undergone recently has caused this to break. Does anyone have a fix for this? It's way too technical for me :).
  • It's a bot check that might break the PDF import anyway, but currently also just seems broken
    (Technical: You need a token to get the PDF, the translator gets the token from a Heroku app, like this: https://trove-proxy.herokuapp.com/pdf/173062296 -- that app uses Anubis for bot protection, which might not work in the first place, but definitely won't work in it's current state where it doesn't even load if you load the page manually)
  • @scharing: Thanks, we'll take a look.
