Hi, can't download any course anymore because Linkedin set a CAPTCHA on my account. Hope this will not be forever. Beware of not downloading to many courses in short time or Linkedin will track it and take action. Able to log in normally on Linkedin Learning in my browser after passing the captcha.

Does anyone have the same problem?

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "linkedin_learning.py", line 225, in
loop.run_until_complete(process())

Hi DrewLukas,
I am just using this python script since a few days and now get a captcha too.
Did you achieve to solve it, bypass this captcha?

Hi, I got the same message, but since Linkeding is using a captcha for every new sessión for security reasons you won't be able to login from this tool, I started to search another way to do this from a saved sessión with cookies and youtube-dl can do this and supports Linkedin learning/lynda courses.

Use youtube-dl instead, this allows to use a cookies.txt file to save the Linkedin session and download the video content.
