Based on the website suggestion for download of the files as a batch using the python client, I installed the 'synapseclient' module. However there is no module name 'synapseutils' and the script for the file downloads gives an error message: ImportError: No module names 'synapseutils' Is there a separate download command for this module? Or an alternative module which is needed for import of synapseutils module? Thank you for the clarification.

Yes, using the develop branch of the `synapsePythonClient` will make that code snippet work. The next release for the Python client is being finalized and should be available soon. Thanks again for the report!
Thank you Kenneth for the information. I was directed to the original documents for installing the synapse clients here: http://docs.synapse.org/articles/getting_started.html#installing-synapse-clients and the script at the 'How to Download' link here: https://www.synapse.org/#!Synapse:syn4164376 Could you confirm if the script for download of files is current and would work after installing of the 'synapseutils' module ?
Could you clarify which page had this information? It isn't quite current.   The issue is that the `synapseutils` is currently only available in the `develop` branch of the `synapsePythonClient` (https://github.com/Sage-Bionetworks/synapsePythonClient/tree/develop). See [this link](https://github.com/Sage-Bionetworks/synapsePythonClient/tree/develop#install-develop-branch) for information on installing the develop branch directly from GitHub.
