Re: How to download files with a "#" in file name

Hi Ahit,
 
The Zowe CLI is backed by z/OSMF REST APIs, and it might be good to try and issue a REST API command directly to see if where the error is being thrown.
 
The REST API documentation is at https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/zos/2.2.0?topic=interface-retrieve-contents-zos-data-set-member for the z/OSMF REST API used to retrieve a PDS member contents, and an example API would look something like https://<host>:<port>/zosmf/restfiles/ds/HLQ.PDS(MEMBER).  I tend to use postman which is a great tool to test REST API requests and responses, although there are other great REST API explorers such as restlet client.  
 
Are you able to construct a raw REST API request to get the contents ?  
 
If you need to reach out to the Zowe CLI squad members themselves a good idea might be to use the slack workspace https://openmainframeproeject.slack.org/ channel #zowe-cli.  if this is your first time to sign up to the workspace us the link https://slack.openmainframeproject.org/.  
 
Best regards,

The command is the same as you tried but I don't go by API mediation layer, I use zosmf directly with url and port..
 

zowe zos-files download all-members "datasetname" -H “url zosmf” -P “port zosmf”

 

node --version

 

v14.15.4

npm --version

6.14.10

zowe --version

 

6.31.1

But then I don't use ml, you might try without it.
