Hi
when i use this Command to upload a File it does not return any URL

find -name ""test".r*" -exec curl --progress-bar -O -T {} https://transfer.sh/{} \; | grep -oE 'https://transfer.sh/.*/test.r.{2}' > test.txt

After the files are uploaded successfully, the links are neither saved in test.txt nor displayed in the terminal !

hi @Lorenz1508 , you are using -O: Write output to a local file named like the remote file we get
It seems that, while not file is get, the output is saved to the local file named like the uploaded file.

You may want to report this to curl

also find will return the whole relative path as {} placeholder, not just the filename, ending in something like:
https://transfer.sh/./directory/filename.ext

Something like should work:

find -name ""test".r*" -exec sh -c 'curl --progress-bar  -T {} https://transfer.sh/"$(basename "{}")"' \;
