# Download File From vscode

### Author: Michael Jiang

*How do I download files from my online VSCode to my local computer?*

While the online VSCode does not offer a way to download entire folders and their contents with one click, there is a non-obvious functionality that allows you to download individual files directly from VSCode.

Right click the desired file and select 'Download' from the menu. The file will download to your default download location on your computer.

You will be able to now access the files from your local system and submit them to Gradescope. To submit packages like this, you can set up a Git repository and push the files there, or you can individually download each file in the package using this method, arrange them properly, and submit it on Gradescope.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://campus-rover.gitbook.io/lab-notebook/fiiva/download_file_from_code.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
