[question] How to import an acsm file?

[IceflowRE]

I installed the plugin and connected to ADE.
And then?
I drop an acsm file into calibre but have an item with format acsm.

Did i miss something?

No, you didn't miss anything. Once you have the plugin authorized (= the settings screen shows "Authorized with ADE ID ...") you just drop the file into Calibre.

If it still imports as ACSM there was an error during import. Right-click the Preferences icon then choose "Restart in debug mode". Calibre will restart, then try to add your ACSM file again, then close Calibre. A log file window will open.

Check if you can make sense of any of the error messages in that log; if not, post them here and I'll take a look.

I'm also encountering the same issue. Here is my debug log:

Take a look at the error message at the end:

E_ADEPT_REQUEST_EXPIRED http://books.google.com/books/acs4/fulfillment/Fulfill 2024-04-08T06:44:56-07:00 is before 2024-04-09T06:27:21-07:00.

The file is no longer valid and you need to re-download it.
