Use cases

• Lead generation: find coaches, course creators and community owners in your niche, with their websites and social links
• Market research: compare pricing, member counts and ratings of communities in a category before launching your own
• Competitor analysis: track what top communities post, which posts get the most likes and comments, and how fast they grow
• Audience research: see who is active in a community, their levels, bios and locations
• Influencer and partner outreach: build lists of community owners and admins to pitch sponsorships or collaborations

How to use

1. Pick a Mode:
   • Discovery - search skool.com/discovery by keyword, or browse by category. Filter by free/paid, public/private and language.
   • Community details - paste community URLs or slugs to get their about-page data.
   • Members - paste public community URLs to get their members.
   • Posts - paste public community URLs to get their posts (optionally with comments).
2. Fill in Search keyword (discovery) or Communities (other modes), e.g. https://www.skool.com/cliefnotes or just cliefnotes.
3. Set Max results (default 100; 0 for no limit).
4. Run the actor. Results appear in the Dataset tab.

Tip: turn on Include full community details in discovery mode to get owner info, post counts and privacy for every community in one run.

Fetching the next page

Discovery runs, posts runs and logged-in member runs (one community) can be continued. After the run finishes, open the Key-value store tab → copy the NEXT_PAGE_ID value → paste it into Page ID on your next run. If NEXT_PAGE_ID is null, you've fetched everything.

Good to know

• Private communities only show their about page to non-members. Community details work for every community; members and posts work only for public communities. Use Privacy: Public only in discovery to find communities you can scrape fully.
• Member lists: without logging in, Skool shows visitors only 30 members per list view. The actor combines every list view (newest, admins, online, each level, free and paid members) with Deep member scan, which runs member searches over common words in names and bios to collect many more. Skool limits how fast member search can be used, so the scan paces itself: expect roughly 10,000 members per hour on large communities and around half of a small community's members (people with an empty bio and an uncommon name cannot be found this way). Increase the run timeout for bigger scans.
• Member keyword search: fill Member search keywords (e.g. coach, realtor, founder) to get only members whose name or bio contains those words - ideal for lead lists.
• Full member lists and private communities: add your own Skool session cookie (Skool session cookie, stored as a secret) to page through the complete member list, and to read members and posts of private communities you belong to.
• Discovery returns up to 1,000 communities per search, the same limit as the Skool website. Use different keywords, categories or languages to reach more.
• Long posts are cut at about 2,000 characters in the feed; the actor opens those posts to get the full text (turn off Fetch full text of long posts for faster runs).
