❓ FAQ

Is it legal to scrape Goodreads author emails? This actor only collects emails that authors and reviewers have published publicly on their Goodreads pages and websites. You are responsible for using the data in compliance with privacy and anti-spam laws (GDPR, CAN-SPAM, CCPA…): have a legitimate reason to contact them, personalise your messages and always include an unsubscribe option.

Why did I get fewer emails than requested? Some niches simply have few public emails. The actor searches Goodreads author pages, profiles and groups and the wider web, then stops automatically when no more emails exist for your search. To get more, add more keywords (genres, roles) and more email domains.

Do I need a Goodreads account or API key? No. Just enter your keywords and run the actor.

Can I schedule it? Yes – use Apify Schedules to collect new author and reviewer emails daily or weekly and send them automatically to Google Sheets, a CRM or a webhook.
