Instead of the direct download url, have you tried Github API? Here's how you can download a certain asset in a release. (See Github API Doc) # Download a certain asset file in a release
curl -L \
-H "Accept: application/octet-stream" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer <YOUR-TOKEN>"\
-H "X-GitHub-Api-Version: 2022-11-28" \
-o {destination-file-name} \

curl -L -H "Accept: application/octet-stream" -H "Authorization: Bearer " "<url/assent>" -o "<myfile.exstection>" modifies the fields inside <> instead of url/asset it must be the version of the url "api.github.com" and must also include assets of the single file you want to download (I also have some working (albeit simple) C# code if you need it) curl command works on linux |
