Skool Skool is a cookie-based integration that uses the PostQueen browser extension to connect. Unlike OAuth-based providers, Skool authentication works by extracting session cookies from your browser.
Three things have to be true before you can connect Skool at all, and none is optional:
  • Chrome or a Chromium browser. The connect flow reaches the extension through Chrome’s own messaging API, which does not exist in Firefox or Safari. There is no fallback.
  • The PostQueen extension installed. It is not on the Chrome Web Store yet, so you build it from source and load it unpacked.
  • EXTENSION_ID set on the instance to that build’s ID. It is a server variable, and each unpacked build has its own ID, so this needs an instance you administer. Without a match the connect stops at Extension Not Found before anything reaches Skool.
Setting the extension up: Chrome Extension.
Using a browser extension to interact with a platform may violate its terms of service and could result in your account being suspended or banned. PostQueen does not take responsibility for any issues arising from the use of this method.

What she can post to Skool

A Skool post needs a title, a group and a label before she will send it. Once it lands, the comments you queued follow it into the same thread.

Character limit

5,000 characters per post.

Media

Files, uploaded to Skool file storage and attached to posts and to comments.

Post types

A titled post in one group, then comments threaded underneath it.

Analytics

None. Ten connectors report numbers back to her, and Skool is not one of them.
The group picker reads your first 30 Skool groups, so a very long membership list may not show every option. If a group has no labels of its own, the only choice is Default Label, and she sends the post without a label attached.Two refusals come from Skool itself: “You can’t post to this channel” when your role in the group is below what the group requires, and “Cannot post to this label” when the label is restricted.

​
Prerequisites

Before connecting Skool, you need:
  1. The PostQueen Chrome Extension installed. Setup: Chrome Extension guide.
  2. The EXTENSION_ID environment variable configured in your PostQueen instance.
  3. An active Skool account: you must be logged in to skool.com in the same browser where the extension is installed.

When creating a post for Skool, you will need to configure:
  • Title: The title of your Skool post (required).
  • Group: Select which Skool group to post in.
  • Label: Select a label for the post, or use the default.
You can also attach images to your post. Files are uploaded directly to Skool’s file storage.
The channel is in the left sidebar with its avatar and name. That is the whole confirmation: if it is in the list, she can post to it.

​

  • “Could not get cookies”: Log in to skool.com in Chrome before connecting.

  • Session expires: If your session expires, reconnect the integration. The extension will attempt to refresh cookies automatically every 24 hours.
