KeyError: 'locations'

[mazepa-pipeline]

Hello there. Thank you for sharing the script. Unfortunately I am having two issues as described below. As I am a beginner in Python, I am grateful if anyone can tell me what I am doing wrong. Regards.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users/user/hello/location_history_json_converter.py", line 574, in
sys.exit(main())
File "/Users/user/hello/location_history_json_converter.py", line 542, in main
items = data["locations"]
KeyError: 'locations'

Not that this is any help, but I am seeing the same issue (albeit on different lines). Did you find a workaround?

[MarkMichaelis]

The issue appears to be unique to the "month" files (e.g.2021_FEBRUARY.json) rather than the location history.json file (the latter completes without error).

@MarkMichaelis When I downloadad the takeout, I only got month files. How do you get the location history.json?

[silvioschwarz]

I got the same Problem.
However, when I donwloaded my location history, I got a Records.json which seems to contain all data.

Using this Records.json works perfectly.

I just created a PR that should fix this, but its untested.

I've also just encountered this issue (although my error more closely matches #55).

Taking a look at the monthly files (eg. 2023_FEBRUARY.json) vs. the complete record (i.e. Records.json), they have a completely different structure.

While the Records file lists out individual location points keyed by locations, the monthly files are keyed by timeline Objects and are further split into activitySegment and placeVisit:

Records file entry:

"locations": [{ "latitudeE7": XXXXXXXXX, "longitudeE7": XXXXXXXXX, "accuracy": 36, "activity": [{ "activity": [{ "type": "STILL", "confidence": 49 }, { "type": "IN_VEHICLE", "confidence": 31 }, { "type": "UNKNOWN", "confidence": 13 }, { "type": "ON_FOOT", "confidence": 5 }, { "type": "WALKING", "confidence": 5 }, { "type": "ON_BICYCLE", "confidence": 3 }], "timestamp": "2015-08-05T00:54:27.596Z" }], "source": "WIFI", "deviceTag": XXXX, "timestamp": "2015-08-05T00:55:27.715Z" },...

vs

Monthly record:

"timelineObjects": [{ "activitySegment": { "startLocation": { "latitudeE7": XXXXXXXXX, "longitudeE7": XXXXXXXXX, "sourceInfo": { "deviceTag": XXXXXXXXX } }, "endLocation": { "latitudeE7": XXXXXXXXX, "longitudeE7": XXXXXXXXX, "sourceInfo": { "deviceTag": XXXXXXXXX } }, "duration": { "startTimestamp": "2023-02-01T06:00:21.231Z", "endTimestamp": "2023-02-01T06:09:31.765Z" }, "distance": 711, "activityType": "WALKING", "confidence": "HIGH", "activities": [{ "activityType": "WALKING", "probability": 93.14038753509521 }, {...
