## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## 📅 Skool Events Scraper — Community Calendar & Reminders

**Pull every event from a Skool community's calendar in seconds — `title`, `description`, `start`/`end` time (with timezone), `recurring` flag, `host`, `location` and the `join link`. Public communities scrape with **no login**; for members-only calendars, bring your own Skool login. Turn on **Monitor mode** + a **Schedule** to get a reminder feed: a Slack / email / webhook ping the moment a community posts a new event. From ~$0.004 per event.**

No browser, no anti-bot fighting — Skool server-renders its calendar, so this reads it straight from the page.

---

### Why this one

Most Skool scrapers grab posts, members or community metadata and **skip the calendar entirely**. This actor is built for the events lane and does it cleanly:

- ✅ **Full event detail** — title, description, start/end datetime (ISO with offset), per-event timezone, cover image, host
- ✅ **Recurring-aware** — detects recurring series and (optionally) emits every occurrence as its own dated row
- ✅ **Location-typed** — physical address, online/video link, or a linked Skool page, plus the raw join `link`
- ✅ **Multi-community** — pass a list of communities and pull them all in one run
- ✅ **Public lane needs no login** — and a **member-only lane** when you supply your own Skool cookie
- ✅ A **new-event monitor** — schedule it and get reminders for newly-posted events (no other event actor offers this)

---

### What you get (per event occurrence)

`title` · `description` · **`startTime`** · **`endTime`** · `timezone` · **`recurring`** · `host` · `locationType` · `locationLabel` · **`link`** (join URL) · `address` · `coverImage` · `reminderDisabled` · `hasAccess` · `eventId` · `occurrenceId` · `createdAt` · `updatedAt` · `groupId` · `communitySlug` · `communityName` · **`eventUrl`** · `is_new` · `scraped_at`

Export to CSV/JSON/Excel or pull via the Apify API into Google Calendar, Notion, n8n, Make, or your CRM.

---

### How to use it

1. Click **Try for free**.
2. Paste one or more **communities** — a URL (`https://www.skool.com/ai-automation-society`) or just the slug (`ai-automation-society`).
3. Click **Start**, then open the **Dataset** tab.
4. **Members-only calendar?** Paste your own Skool `auth_token` cookie in **Your Skool login** (see FAQ).
5. **For a reminder feed:** turn on **Monitor mode** + an Apify **Schedule** to be alerted when new events are posted.

#### Quick start (public community)
```json
{ "communities": ["ai-automation-society"], "maxItems": 50 }
````

#### Daily new-event reminders

```json
{ "communities": ["ai-automation-society"], "monitorMode": true, "slackWebhookUrl": "https://hooks.slack.com/services/…" }
```

#### Members-only calendar (your own login)

```json
{ "communities": ["my-private-community"], "skoolCookie": "<your auth_token value>" }
```

***

### Who it's for

- 🗓️ **Members** who want every community's events in one calendar / one feed
- 🔔 **Community managers** tracking what other communities run and when
- 🤖 **Automators** piping Skool events into Google Calendar, Notion, n8n or Make
- 📊 **Researchers / analysts** studying event cadence across communities

***

### Pricing (pay-per-event)

| Event | What it covers | Suggested price |
|-------|----------------|-----------------|
| `lot-scraped` | each event occurrence returned | **~$0.004 / event** (~$4 / 1,000) |
| `monitor-run-completed` | each scheduled watch run | ~$0.05 / run |
| `new-lot-detected` | each newly-posted event occurrence | ~$0.02 |
| `alert-delivered` | each Slack / email / webhook reminder | ~$0.005 |

You're charged per result, not per run, and never for the actor start. The new-event monitor remembers what it has seen, so you never pay for or get reminded about the same event twice.

### Notes & legal

- **Public community data.** A community's calendar is fetched the same way your browser renders it. For **members-only** calendars you must supply **your own** Skool login (`auth_token`) — you are accessing only data you already have access to. We never log or store your cookie.
- **You are responsible** for using the data in line with Skool's Terms and applicable law.
- **No double-counting** — monitor mode keys on each event occurrence and emits/reminds once.

***

### FAQ

**Does it need a login?** No — for **public** communities. The daily demo and most communities work with no cookie. Only **members-only** calendars require your own Skool `auth_token`.

**How do I get my `auth_token`?** Log into Skool in your browser → DevTools (F12) → **Application** → **Cookies** → `www.skool.com` → copy the `auth_token` value → paste it into **Your Skool login**. It's optional and only needed for private calendars.

**How are recurring events handled?** Each occurrence is detected and flagged `recurring: true`. By default every occurrence is its own dated row (`occurrenceId`); flip **Include every recurring occurrence** off to collapse a series to its next occurrence only.

**Can I watch several communities at once?** Yes — pass a list in **communities**. The monitor tracks all of them in one scope.

**What time zone are events in?** Each event carries its own `timezone` (events can differ within one calendar); the calendar's default timezone is used as a fallback. `startTime`/`endTime` are ISO-8601 with the UTC offset baked in.

**Why don't I get any events for a community?** Its calendar may be members-only (you'll see a warning to add your `skoolCookie`) or it simply has no upcoming events.

**Is there a host/organizer field?** `host` is derived from the community owner. Skool's public calendar payload doesn't attach a per-event organizer, so per-event host isn't always available on the public lane.

**Will it break when Skool redeploys?** No — it reads Skool's dynamic build id at runtime and falls back to the rendered calendar page, so it keeps working across deploys.

# Actor input Schema

## `communities` (type: `array`):

One or more Skool communities to pull calendar events from. Paste a community URL (https://www.skool.com/ai-automation-society) or just its slug (ai-automation-society). Public communities need no login.

## `communityUrl` (type: `string`):

Convenience field for a single community URL or slug. Merged with the list above.

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Cap on total event occurrences per run. 0 = unlimited.

## `skoolCookie` (type: `string`):

OPTIONAL. To pull events from communities whose calendar is members-only, paste YOUR OWN Skool 'auth\_token' cookie value (DevTools → Application → Cookies → www.skool.com → auth\_token). Public communities don't need this. Never shared or logged. Leave blank for the public/free lane.

## `includeRecurringOccurrences` (type: `boolean`):

On: emit each occurrence of a recurring event (one row per date). Off: collapse each recurring series to its single next occurrence.

## `monitorMode` (type: `boolean`):

Recurring watcher: diff against the prior run (per community) and output/alert ONLY new event occurrences. Pair with an Apify Schedule for a reminder feed.

## `alertOnNewEvent` (type: `boolean`):

In monitor mode, send a reminder for each new event occurrence.

## `webhookUrl` (type: `string`):

POST endpoint for new-event reminders.

## `slackWebhookUrl` (type: `string`):

Slack incoming-webhook URL for new-event reminders.

## `emailRecipients` (type: `array`):

Emails for the new-event digest (via apify/send-mail).

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Proxy settings. Datacenter rotation is plenty — Skool's public calendar is server-rendered with no anti-bot.

## `diagnose` (type: `boolean`):

Dev only. Logs the first parsed event of the first community, then exits.
