Cannot download board/section pins

[ValentinDORMANN]

My pinterest board has the following structure:

• <user_name>
  • <pin_0.1>
  • <board_1>
    • <pin_1.1>
    • <section_11>
      • <pin_11.1>
    • <section_12>
      • <pin_12.1>
  • <board_2>
    • <pin_2.1>
    • <section_21>
      • <pin_21.1>

All my boards are secret board so i must add --cookies cookies.txt argument.
When I execute pinterest-downloader.py <user_name> I can recursively download pins children of user_name (pin_0.1), pins of boards (pin_1.1, pin_2.1) but I cannot download pins from sections (pin_11.1, pin_12.1, pin_21.1).
Executing pinterest-downloader.py <user_name>/<board_1> or pinterest-downloader.py <user_name>/<board_1>/<section_11> seems not function with error

[✖] Get this board/section failed : <user_name>/<board_1>
[✖] No item found.
Please ensure your username/boardname/[section] or link has media item.
 Abort.

Same problem, a fix for that would be nice.

Where are you getting your cookies file from?

Where are you getting your cookies file from?

I use EditThisCookies extension on chrome.
Login to your pinterest page where you have your boards.
Open debugger console (Press F12)
You should have the following tabs: Elements, Console, Sources, Network, ... EditThisCookies.
On EditThisCookie tab you have Name=_pinterest_sess; Copy value
Paste your token into a file called cookies.txt in the same directory where the pinterest-downloader is.
Call the script and add the -co cookies.txt arguments to download your secret galleries.
This file contains
_pinterest_sess="put_your_token_here"; expires=""; Path="/"; HttpOnly; SameSite=None; Secure; Domain=".pinterest.com";
