Tumblr "No suitable extractor"

[petrarislin]

(TY for the help with deviantart, now on to tumblr). I obtained "OAuth Consumer Key" and "Secret Key" from tumblr, and "access-token" and "access-token-secret" from gallery-dl oauth:tumblr, and added all 4 credentials to the tumblr section of %appdata%\gallery-dl\config.json. But
"gallery-dl https://www.tumblr.com/babyanimalgifs" just gives:
"[gallery-dl][error] No suitable extractor found for 'https://www.tumblr.com/babyanimalgifs'".
And
"gallery-dl https://babyanimalgifs.tumblr.com" gives:
[tumblr][info] Daily API rate limit exceeded
[tumblr][info] Register your own OAuth application and use its credentials to prevent this error: https://github.com/mikf/gallery-dl/blob/master/docs/configuration.rst#extractortumblrapi-key--api-secret
[tumblr][error] Aborting - Rate limit will reset at 02:30:02
(and I haven't downloaded anything from tumblr today).
I also tried other safe blog pages, no difference.

Sounds like gallery-dl cannot find some of your credentials and falls back to the default keys. You can check what credentials get used by enabling debug output when running gallery-dl on a Tumblr URL:

$ gallery-dl -v demo.tumblr.com
...
[tumblr][debug] Using custom OAuth1.0 authentication

$ gallery-dl -v --ignore-config demo.tumblr.com
...
[tumblr][debug] Using default api_key authentication

The 4 values should be called api-key, api-secret, access-token, and access-token-secret. Having just api-key would also be enough for getting around the rate limit thing:

        "tumblr": {
            "api-key": "***",
            "api-secret": "***",
            "access-token": "***",
            "access-token-secret": "***"
        },

(You will probably have to redo the oauth:tumblr step after getting gallery-dl to recognize and use your API key)

But "gallery-dl https://www.tumblr.com/babyanimalgifs" just gives: "[gallery-dl][error] No suitable extractor found for 'https://www.tumblr.com/babyanimalgifs'".

Those are also valid blog URLs? Currently only babyanimalgifs.tumblr.com and tumblr.com/blog/view/babyanimalgifs are supported.

Ya, https://www.tumblr.com/babyanimalgifs is also perfectly valid.

As rautamiekka noted, tumblr uses or used both forms of address, blog name first or after the slash (the former is unfortunate, as one can't find the tumblr pages easily within a bookmark list).

I found the problem for my original post. In https://github.com/mikf/gallery-dl/blob/master/docs/configuration.rst#extractortumblrapi-key--api-secret you say the keys are named "OAuth Consumer Key" and "Secret Key", and in your answer above you say "api-key" and "api-secret". It appears they actually need to be named "OAuth-Consumer-Key" and "Secret-Key" (with hyphens). So you may want to modify those texts.

TY.

After registering an application, Tumblr calls the two keys OAuth Consumer Key and Secret Key, which is why I've used those names there.

The instructions are listed under extractor.tumblr.api-key & .api-secret, so I assumed it is kind of obvious that gallery-dl wants api-key and api-secret as option names. The same names are also used for all other OAuth v1.0 sites, while the websites themselves use different names during registration.
