An error occured while downloading settings ...

[JoTrab]

I manage to upload to my github gist, but downloading seems impossible. I get a notification that: ''An error occured while downloading settings ...'' and neither Tweaks, key-bindings, nor extensions are downloaded.
Best regards, jo
Gnome version 3.36.3 on ubuntu 20.04.

Can you check the logs with journalctl -f /usr/bin/gnome-shell while trying to download? What does it say?

[JoTrab]

It says

Too many arguments to method Gio.OutputStream.write: expected 2, got 3

and

gnome-shell[2654]: [extensions-sync] [api] error occured during download SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 2 of the JSON data

Can you share your gist if it is ok for you? There seems to a problem with json in gist

In your gist, there should be extensions, keybindings, and tweaks files. If you have files other than these three, you should delete it as a workaround for now. I have fixed it and will upload a new version soon.

Thanks, it works now. I thought I had already deleted the dummy file needed to create a gist but it was still there. I made sure to delete it and it works fine. Thanks again for the quick answer and the great extensions.
