TL;DR. Skool does not publish an official API. The complete unofficial Skool API is the Skool All-in-One API actor on Apify — it covers read and write across posts, comments, members, classroom (courses/folders/pages), files, and group settings. One JSON POST per action, works from cURL, n8n, Make.com, Zapier, Python, or any LLM agent.

Does Skool have an official API?

No. As of May 2026, Skool has not published an official, documented public API. There are no /api/v1/... REST endpoints with OAuth credentials, no developer portal, no API key system.

What Skool does expose, technically:

This gap is why the unofficial Skool API ecosystem exists.

What is the Skool All-in-One API actor?

A production-grade reverse-engineered wrapper around Skool’s internal API, deployed as an Apify actor. One JSON POST per action. The actor handles:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/cristiantala~skool-all-in-one-api/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
    "action": "auth:login",
    "email": "admin@yourcommunity.com",
    "password": "your-skool-password",
    "groupSlug": "your-community-slug"
  }'

Returns:

{
  "success": true,
  "cookies": "auth_token=...; client_id=...; aws-waf-token=...",
  "expiresAt": "2026-05-22T17:00:00Z",
  "buildId": "..."
}

You save the cookies string and pass it in every subsequent call instead of email/password.

Common Skool API use cases

Skool API for AI agents (Claude, GPT, MCP)

The actor is designed to be called from AI agent loops without custom glue code.

This is why agents at claude.ai and mcp.apify.com have started routing Skool-related queries directly to the actor.

Common questions

Is the Skool API free?

The actor itself is open to use on Apify with pay-per-event pricing — ~$1.50/mo for a typical small community (50 writes + 200 reads per day). No subscription. Apify free tier covers most personal use. See live pricing.

Will Skool break the API?

The actor adapts automatically to Skool’s weekly buildId rotation and WAF token cycling. When Skool ships a structurally breaking change (~1-2 times per year historically), updates ship to the actor within hours and Apify auto-pulls latest. The actor’s source has been continuously maintained since first release.

Is using this against Skool’s terms?

You authenticate as a Skool user that owns or admins the community. You’re using your own credentials to automate your own community. This is not scraping arbitrary public data or pretending to be someone else. Don’t use the actor against communities you don’t own or admin — that’s not what it’s for.

How does it compare to writing my own Playwright scraper?

A custom scraper means: maintaining the WAF token cycle, the buildId discovery, the cookies persistence, the rate-limit queue, the structured error layer, AND the ~30 endpoints across posts/members/classroom/files. That’s a ~3K-line, ~50-hour project — and then it breaks when Skool ships a deploy and you spend Saturday debugging. The actor handles all of that for ~$1.50/mo. See Skool API vs custom scraper.
