There's no Desktop application for Amazon Photos on Linux. Your only option is to upload through the web user interface.

If you have failures, a <div> pops up in the lower left telling you there are failures, but there's no real way to do anything with that information. Assuming the errors were not serious (e.g. you ran out of upload space for videos) you probably just want to retry the failures: especially if you have 25 thousand files.

The only sensible way to extract the list of failures (there were 170 odd in my case) was to inspect the page and copy the HTML node containing the errors.

Ansible Compare

Frequently we might need to make a change to a file and respond to removals as well as additions.

This playbook demonstrates how we can detect changes (using the Ansible host).

1. Run the playbook in regular mode ansible-playbook demo-compare.yaml. Look for a file named demo-compare.txt alongside the playbook.
2. Change a name in the file_data list.
3. Re-run the playbook in --check mode.

param( [ScriptBlock] $scriptBlock )
<#
    .SYNOPSIS 
          Impersonates a user and executes a script block as that user. This is an interactive script
        and a window will open in order to securely capture credentials.
    .EXAMPLE
        Use-Impersonation.ps1 {Get-ChildItem 'C:\' | Foreach { Write-Host $_.Name }}
        This writes the contents of 'C:\' impersonating the user that is entered.
