If you entered dozens of image URLs as shown above and started the download, but only a significantly smaller number of files were downloaded than the number of URLs entered, **duplicate file names might have been the cause**.&#x20;

This situation occurs because the image downloader treats images with the same file name as a single file.There are the following solutions to fix this problem.

1. **Use a filename option that includes sequence numbers**Try using (ex. sequence only, sequence + original, sequence + Excel).
2. **Or select a different column in Excel**to specify the file name. If you choose data that does not cause duplicates, you can resolve the issue.​

## 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://help.listly.io/support/faq/listly-image-downloader/fewer-image-files-were-downloaded-than-urls-entered..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.
