I am trying to get my trakt data by using the web page as I have no idea how to use this script
https://darekkay.com/blog/trakt-tv-backup/
Unfortunately it creates a zip file with 0 byte json files! Can someone please help me with this?

@rezpower that's strange. I just tried the web page route and it worked, as per usual. It was only when I tried to run the script locally that it created the zip file with 0 byte json files.

@micmalti Thanks a lot for replying. By confirming that it worked for you I started trying again to see why it's not working for me and I finally figured out that it was because of my username. My username on Trakt was my e-mail address with a dot in the middle. ([email protected]). I changed it from the email format and only kept myname.s , but trakt changes the URL from . to -
So to fix the problem I entered myname-s in the website and I was able to get it work.
Mentioned all this in case someone else faces the same problem!
