Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/issues/646

I loaded a large list of URLs into an ArchiveBox instance running on Docker. I had to restart the computer that ArchiveBox was running on. Now most of the snapshots show a status of Pending. From what I can see these snapshots haven't started downloading again after the restart.
Is there a way of resuming these downloads in bulk for all snapshots that are pending?

Just go to the admin UI, check the ones you want to resume, and click the "Archive" button.

Or run the archivebox update command to do it via the CLI:

docker run -v $PWD:/data -it archivebox update
# or
docker-compose run archivebox update
