List user shelves

[Cici]

I am hitting the list shelves endpoint (https://www.goodreads.com/shelf/list....) and I am having 2 problems. 1) It is not returning the correct book count for any of the shelves. 2) It only returns the 3 system shelves and none of my custom shelves. Is that the correct URL?

Thanks!

Hi Ci-Ci,

That url is correct, but you need to include the user_id of the user whose shelves you're requesting as a parameter:

https://www.goodreads.com/shelf/list....

That should get you what you want.

Thank you. That did it. FYI, The API doc doesn't list user_id as required and the sample URL doesn't include it.

Thanks Ci-Ci...I will update the docs to include that param.
