Downloading a dataset from Zenodo


This example shows how to download a dataset from Zenodo Sanbox (https://sandbox.zenodo.org) as it is a test environment. You can however download directly from Zenodo (https://zenodo.org) if you wish to download a published study.

  1. Find the dataset you would like to download: In this example we want to download the following study: https://sandbox.zenodo.org/record/1240226, as this dataset is quite small.

2. Copy DOI or webpath: In our example the DOI: 10.5072/zenodo.1240226 The webpath: https://sandbox.zenodo.org/record/1240226

    • Downloading the dataset using Solidipes:

      Go to the directory where you wish to download the dataset or specify the path to the destination folder. In your commande line interface use the following command:

      solidipes download zenodo 10.5072/zenodo.1240226
      

      or:

      solidipes download zenodo https://sandbox.zenodo.org/record/1240226
      

4. Initialize the project If the downloaded study has not been published with solidipes (.solidipes directory already present), you can run solidipes init at the root.
