Hi everyone! I am currently working on a project metadata using python requests. I am using a template you can see here:

I understand most of the code but I’m confused on where I can find the install_location. From what I understand, the problem may be that I’m working with the demo database. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

I’m not familiar with this specific piece of code, but it looks here like install_location is just the URL to the Omeka S site you’re working with.

So for the demo site the URL would be:
http://dev.omeka.org/omeka-s-sandbox/admin/item
or does it matter what comes after “/omeka-s-sandbox” , if I can even upload to the sandbox?

From just a quick look at the script I would say that nothing should come after “omeka-s-sandbox” in that example.
