Usage Tips

🎯 Best Practices

• Use fresh browser cookies (exported recently while logged in)
• Provide multiple classroom URLs to extract from entire communities
• Start with default duplicate threshold (0.8) and adjust if needed

⚠️ Important Notes

• You must have access to the Skool classrooms you're extracting from
• Private communities require valid authentication cookies
• The actor respects Skool's structure and doesn't modify any content

🛠️ Troubleshooting

Problem: No videos found

• Verify your cookies are fresh and valid
• Check that classroom URLs are correct (no ?md parameter)
• Ensure you have access to the specified classrooms

Problem: Authentication errors

• Re-export cookies from an active Skool session
• Make sure cookies include session and auth tokens
• Try accessing the classroom manually in your browser first

Problem: High duplicate rate

• This is normal for Skool's React architecture
• The actor automatically filters duplicates
• Check the duplicate analysis report for details

Rate Limiting & Performance

• The actor includes built-in delays to respect Skool's servers
• Typical processing: ~1-2 seconds per lesson URL
• Memory usage: <100MB for typical workloads
• Network dependent: requires stable internet connection

Legal & Ethical Use

• Only extract content you have legitimate access to
• Respect Skool's Terms of Service
• Don't use for unauthorized content redistribution
• Educational and personal backup use recommended
