First, you need to get a session id from the website. Visit and log in to Cambly, then toggle the Developer Tools for Chrome. See the image below.
Then you can use a command like the below to download all the videos since 2022-01-04. The video's name will be something like 2022-02-15_Teacher.Mark.mp4.
python main.py -s '<session id>' -d '2022-01-04'
The outputs will be something like the below. We can see some retries from the results. It is ok to run the script multiple times. It will continue on the last time it stopped.

Known issues
Sometimes Cambly may limit the download bandwidth for you. You may see that the download speed is very slow. That's fine, and you just need to wait and try again at another time. The script will also retry automatically when an error occurs.
