Find Amazon e-book ASIN metadata code by ISBN code.

Most of downloaded books don't have the right metadata in place for full Kindle - Goodreads support (currently reading syncing, etc.).

  1. Use Calibre to manage your side-loaded Kindle books.
  2. Convert the book to .mobi & download metadata (cmd + d) for the selected book.
  3. Enter metadata edit mode & copy ISBN code (isbn:000000000000) and start node index.js 000000000000.
  4. If the e-book is found in Amazon, ASIN code will be returned, for eg. ABC123AB12.
  5. Add it as an extra metadata ID named mobi-asin (isbn:000000000000, mobi-asin:ABC123AB12).
  6. Upload it to your Kindle and enjoy.
