I find that Kobo is iffy due to Cloudflare. Apple works. Kindle works best if it's a Kindle eBook or you put in the ASIN in the ID. The rest either don't work because they are banned and the ones that do sometimes work return a cover that's too small. And some don't return metadata.

I've seen plenty of metadata that's a right mess. So it's best to download the metadata this by hand so you can get it as correct as you can.
