I would like to download all shakemap files. I can download one based on event ID but how do I download all of them. I have specified a folder for them to download to but I have tried a few combinations to get all of the files to download however no success. So the 2022p955929 could change and there are many zip files to http://shakinglayer.geonet.org.nz/api/v1/events/2022p955929/latest.zip

 

I have tried this and the $ sign but they don't work

When you visit https://shakinglayer.geonet.org.nz/api/v1/events/ it will return a json with the event id's:

["2022p936056", "2022p931987", "2022p923741", "2022p922237", "2022p913620", "2022p906843", "2022p905983", "2022p904574", "2022p903728", "2022p903670", "2022p903371", "2022p902801", "2022p901755", "2022p901313", "2022p901243", "2022p901223", "2022p901222", "2022p901216", "2022p900633", "2022p898911", "2022p897670", "2022p894243", "2022p879484", "2022p879273", "2022p879228", "2022p878661"]

So what you can do is use a HTTPCaller to get this response, fragment the response to features and use a second HTTPCaller to do the request for each event.
