As i said, we're not going to download the files on the pc, but rather we're going to get the curl string to download the file on the NAS. Once you click on "download", Google will ask you to log in again and then the browser will prompt to select a location where to download the file. Google will send you a link to download your files. I don't use Chrome so I hope somebody will suggest a similar extension for Chrome in the comments. curl is a command that allows to make http requests with a lot of options in our case, it will attach google cookies so Google will believe that we are logged users that are doing the download. Basically, this extension will translate the download link to a curl string. a browser extension that allows cookies in download link.You'll receive an email from Google when this is done. Click on create export and wait a couple of hours.
#SYNOLOGY DRIVE SYNC PHOTOS ARCHIVE#
We will download the archive on the NAS directly, without passing from our local pc. Select Email me a link to downlad and select 50 GB archive size. Tip: you can select only one year to do a test before selecting all years. These are albums that will contain all photos for every year I assume other albums contain duplicates of these photos, that's why I deselected all the others. Click on deselect all again and select only albums Photos from XXXX that you are interested to.Then, wait a lot (20-30 seconds?) until the button All photo albums appears.In the end, it's not that difficult but it will require time. Scary, of all those steps? It took me months to perfect this procedure, but now I am quite happy with it and I have almost completed the migration. SSH to your nas and extract the archives.You'll need a browser extension for this. Take the download link and download it on your NAS.Go on Google Takeout - the unified service to download all your data from google servers - and select only the photo albums you want to download.My article will try to cover both, but since I migrated to version 7, this is the primary target of my guide. To be precise, on Synology DSM (the operating system) 6.* the photos app was called Synology Moments, while on version 7.* it's called Synology Photos. Synology offers an alternative called Synology Photos that works "well". you care about the privacy of your photos.
