Not getting any images

[igillespie]

If I run, bin/rivian_cli --vehicles I can see my Gen 2 R1S.

However, when I the images command, I get no images:

bin/rivian_cli --images  
[]
No Images found

I'd expect to get back an array of URLs pointing to images representing my vehicle.

Can you run it with the --verbose option? It will give more info on whats going on

[igillespie]

Yeah, here you go:

% bin/rivian_cli --images --verbose
images:
{'data': {'getVehicleOrderMobileImages': [], 'getVehicleMobileImages': []}}
[]
No Images found

Hmm it looks like Rivian is not providing any data. The response is valid but the contents are empty. What state of delivery are you in? Like do you already have it or is it being built etc?

[igillespie]

I took delivery about a week ago. Got any other ideas, do you know if it is working for other Gen 1 and/or Gen 2 owners?

So I have a Gen1 R1T and it gives this:

 % bin/rivian_cli --images --verbose
images:

Im not sure why yours isn't returning the info, but the API is giving a response its just empty for some reason for you.

[igillespie]

Interesting. Do you know of anyone else with a gen 2 that has this api call working?

[the-mace]

I don't, its not something that most people seem to use via the API and my guess is Rivian moved away from assets via the API (data intensive, slow etc) vs building them into the app images. Anyway, the API is returning results, they're just empty.
