The entire message I am getting "Invalid Device Information!"

I know BL is using AWS, so I wonder if they turned on a new security "feature"
and this is the unintended consequence?

It might be filtering by user agent and only allowing common ones through.

Has anyone wiresharked BrickStore to see which user agent is being sent?

OR maybe, Lego said "No more BrickStore for you" soup Nazi style.

You can manually get most of the information this is blocked from automatic download:

(Download the first 3 as xml and import into BrickStore)

Inventory: https://www.bricklink.com/invExcel.asp

Orders Received: https://www.bricklink.com/orderExcel.asp?orderType=received

Orders Placed: https://www.bricklink.com/orderExcel.asp?orderType=placed

Wanted list: go to the desired WL and click download and import into BrickStore.

I do not know how BrickStore downloads carts as they seems to be some sort of
coded file (every other number is a 3 however, weird) when exported.

Hope this helps someone.

It's not due to to user agent.

It's now 2 hours+ after deployment, we many have problems, no communication.

In 2000 spaghetti were fine for a one solo admin and team.

But right now? I can't do anything, I've 2 projects to quote and 1 to
realize
I just hate BrickLink at this moment.

How do you know this? Not saying you're wrong, but what is your proof?

24 year old spaghetti does not sound appetizing.

Ouch.

  I just hate BrickLink at this moment.

That's the spirit! Now you're coming around.

Surely you are not suggesting that the change log, er roadmap, is out of date.

Nothing has happened since March 26th.

Russell already told us in forum it's more or less updated and/or I know
could check some changes not shown.

Just try to log in with a different browser; it'll work.

See comment in bold above.

BrickStore is not a browser.

I wish you were not right either. This bites so much!

It is a shame we have to rely on 3rd party tools just to make Bricklink workable.

This is going to make my month end and quarter end process a major pain in the
butt.

Hey Bricklink Admin, fix yo system or let Robert know the new authentication
scheme.

I am able to download inventory, but get the following error when I try to download
both orders received and orders placed
