a way to claim already uploaded recordings?

andy108369 opened this issue · comments

Say I have uploaded some recordings to the asciinema but forgot to asciinema auth, is there a way to authenticate / claim them?

I guess I'd need to download them until they haven't been archived yet and then push them back (asciinema upload file.json) once I asciinema auth'ed again.

Before I close this one, is there a way to download the archived recordings?

Such as these 3:

From what I'm able to see, when no asciinema auth is run, there is a different link for claiming that record:
Look:
asciicast

Cool, it works now.

How do I derive the number off of the above 3 links that I've got archived?

From what I'm seeing, you cannot.

Upon a recording, you get that uuid for reclaiming the recording.
If you do not claim that, the recording will be deleted after 7 days.
If you have a recording link, and it is currently working, I shall assume it was claimed by someone (or else, it is some old behavior I don't know about)

(or is archived very different from deleted? 🤔)

Archived is slightly different than deleted - it's hidden/inaccesible, but recoverable upon request. Periodically (irregularly) I do delete recordings which were in archived state for a long time.

If you upload first, forgetting to asciinema auth, you can still asciinema auth later from the same machine and it will link the recordings to your asciinema.org account. In other words: you can do it in any order, as long as you do it from the same machine (and system user).

You can't claim a recording from another system because the thing that links you to your recordings is "installation ID" stored in ~/.config/asciinema dir. Unless you sync your asciinema installation ID file across machines, but that's not recommended (although would work).

@andy108369 I've recovered your 3 old recordings.
