o Goodreads recusou o pedido de export

Error message

o Goodreads recusou o pedido de export (HTTP {}). Ele só deixa gerar um a cada poucos dias

What it means

After POSTing to /review_porter/export/<id>, trigger_and_wait accepts success (2xx) or a 302 redirect; any other non-success status means Goodreads refused the export request. Since Goodreads rate-limits export generation to once every few days, the error message explicitly calls out that restriction.

Solutions

Don't force a new export: rerun with force=false so the existing ready export link is reused instead of POSTing again.
Wait a few days for Goodreads' export cooldown to lapse before forcing a new export.
Recapture cookies (a stale CSRF token can cause rejection) and retry once.
If HTTP 429, back off significantly — repeated attempts prolong any rate-limit block.

Example fix

// before
run(&f, &Options { force: true, .. }).await?; // rejected, export already made this week

// after
run(&f, &Options { force: false, .. }).await?; // reuse existing export link

Defensive patterns

Strategy: retry

Validate before calling

// don't attempt a forced export if a ready one exists
let page = fetcher.get_text(IMPORT_URL).await?;
let opts = if export_link(&page).is_some() {
    Options { force: false, ..opts }
} else { opts };

Try / catch

match run(&fetcher, &opts).await {
    Err(e) if e.to_string().contains("recusou o pedido de export") => {
        eprintln!("Export cooldown active; rerun later with force=false");
    }
    r => r?,
}

Prevention

Only force a new export every few days at most
Respect HTTP 429 with long backoff
Recapture cookies if rejection persists (stale CSRF token)

When it happens

Trigger: The export-trigger POST returns e.g. 403/429/500: requesting an export sooner than Goodreads' cooldown allows, an invalid/expired CSRF token, or a rate-limited/blocked session.

Common situations: User (or this tool) already generated an export within the last few days and force=true was set; CSRF token mismatch from stale cookies; aggressive retry loop tripping Goodreads rate limiting.
