Yes. BooksCloud's bulk sync includes a keyword filter that lets you narrow the sync to a specific topic within a broader category. Instead of syncing every cooking book available — which could include hundreds of titles spanning baking, French cuisine, grilling, and beyond — you can sync specifically around a keyword like "keto" to get a tightly focused catalog of keto and low-carb books.
How Keyword Filtering in Bulk Sync Works
When you set up a bulk sync in BooksCloud, you select:
1. A category (e.g., Health & Wellness, Cooking, Self-Help).
2. Optional keyword filter — a term that books must match to be included (e.g., "keto," "vegan," "sourdough," "mediterranean").
3. Additional filters: cover type, language, in-stock status, bestseller percentile.
Only books matching both the category and the keyword are imported. The result is a focused, niche-specific catalog rather than a broad genre dump.
Real-World Examples of Keyword-Filtered Syncs
- Fitness brand: Category = Health & Wellness, Keyword = "strength training"
- Mindfulness store: Category = Self-Help, Keyword = "meditation"
- Dog training blog: Category = Pets, Keyword = "dog training"
- Stoic philosophy site: Category = Philosophy, Keyword = "stoicism"
- True crime podcast shop: Category = Non-Fiction, Keyword = "true crime"
Each of these produces a catalog that's highly relevant to a specific audience — far more useful than a generic genre import.
Is the Keyword Filter Dynamic?
Yes. Like all bulk syncs, a keyword-filtered sync is dynamic. As new books matching your keyword are released and enter BooksCloud's catalog, they're automatically added to your store. Your keto cooking section stays current with new releases without any manual intervention.

Can You Run Multiple Keyword Syncs at Once?
Yes. You can set up multiple syncs with different keyword filters to cover different sub-topics within your store. A health and wellness store might run separate syncs for "keto," "intermittent fasting," "strength training," and "yoga" — each creating a focused section of the catalog.
The Bottom Line
Bulk sync isn't just for entire genres. Use the keyword filter to go narrow and deep on any topic, and BooksCloud will build — and maintain — a niche-specific book catalog for you automatically.
