Download all videos at once

Can this functionality be added to the extension? If so I'll try to implement it my self. Any things I should consider before proceeding?

May I ask what you mean with all videos at once? Different formats? Different recordings? Is there a Webex page with multiple recordings?

There is a page where you can view all the recordings for a particular course then, if you click on one of them, after requesting you the password, you will be redirected to the recording page where you can view it and download it.

What I want to is from that page, download all the recordings at once, without going through each one

Is this specific to your university? This repo contains a generic tool that is supposed to work on "every" Webex, not only on UniFi recordings. I am studying at PoliMi and we have a similar page, but it seems to be custom and not hosted on the Webex subsite. I am afraid your proposal goes beyond the scope of this project. You may fork the repo and develop a version that is more integrated with UniFi services, but I do not have enough experience to give you guidance on how to proceed :(

I don't think it's specific to my university because that page is hosted on Webex so I don't think it's beyond the scope of the project. When I get home I will post the specific endpoint to prove what I said.

P.s. I was working on a forked version to support this but because I've never created a browser extension it's not straightforward for me to write code.

Well then I'm waiting, it might be valid for everyone!

P.s. I feel you, I have only fixed some bugs here and there, but I do not know how to properly structure extensions.

Here I am. This is a screenshot of the page: image Turns out that it's a Webex extension(?) so it maybe not be present in all Universities but it is inside the Webex suite.

At this point I don't really know if it's in the scope of this project, but to inform anyone who maybe interested, as you can see from the screenshot, there is a list of the recordings (the title is blurred for privacy reasons) and there is a button on the side to go to the recording. If you click on the bottom, the recording's password will be revealed and you will be redirected to the recording page where you have to type the password to enter. Here are some screenshots: image image

What I want to achieve is to be able to add a button in the recordings list page to download them all at once. image
