❓ FAQ

What is Meta branded content?

Branded Content is a dedicated section of the Meta Ad Library that shows influencer partnerships — posts and reels created by content creators with an official paid partnership tag for a specific brand. The vast majority of branded content lives on Instagram, where creators partner with brands on sponsored posts and reels. This data is publicly available and can help you track competitor collaborations, discover influencer partnerships, and measure campaign reach.

How can Brand Collaboration Scraper help my business?

• Competitor analysis: See which Instagram creators your competitors are partnering with and how often.
• Campaign tracking: If you're the collaborating brand, easily track all branded content metrics across Instagram and Facebook in one place without manual searching.
• Influencer discovery: Find creators who are already working in your industry or niche on Instagram.
• Performance benchmarking: Compare collaboration frequency and content types across brands.

Can I export branded content data using API?

Yes, you can access the extracted branded content data through the Apify API. You'll need an Apify account and your API token (available under Integrations settings in Console). Apify API is organized around RESTful HTTP endpoints that enable you to manage, schedule, and run Apify actors. The API also lets you access any datasets, monitor actor performance, fetch results, create and update versions, and more. To access the API using Node.js, use the apify-client NPM package. To access the API using Python, use the apify-client PyPI package.

Click on the API tab for code examples or check out the Apify API reference docs for full detail.

Can I use Brand Collaboration Scraper through an MCP server?

With Apify API, you can use Brand Collaboration Scraper within your AI workflows. You can connect to the MCP server using clients like ClaudeDesktop and LibreChat or build your own. Here's how you can set up Brand Collaboration Scraper via Model Context Protocol (MCP) server:

1. Start a Server-Sent Events (SSE) session to receive a sessionId.
2. Send API messages using that sessionId to trigger the scraper.
3. The message starts the Brand Collaboration Scraper with the provided input.
4. The response should be: Accepted.

This makes Brand Collaboration Scraper compatible with MCP server implementations and allows you to use it as a branded content API within your AI agent workflows.

Do I need proxies to scrape branded content?

You need proxies in general but you don't need to do anything extra to apply them if you run the scraper on the Apify platform. For successful branded content scraping, we run residential proxies in the background which are included in Apify's monthly Starter plan ($29).

Can I integrate data from Brand Collaboration Scraper with other apps?

Yes. Brand Collaboration Scraper can be connected with almost any cloud service or web app thanks to integrations on the Apify platform. You can integrate with Make, n8n, Zapier, ChatGPT, Slack, Airbyte, GitHub, Google Sheets, Asana, Google Drive, Keboola, MCP Servers, and more.

Is it legal to scrape branded content data?

Our scrapers are ethical and do not extract any private user data. Branded content data is publicly available through Meta's Ad Library, which Meta provides for transparency purposes. However, you should be aware that your results could contain personal data. You should not scrape personal data unless you have a legitimate reason to do so.

If you're unsure whether your reason is legitimate, consult your lawyers. You can also read our blog post on the legality of web scraping and ethical scraping.

Brand Collaboration Scraper is not working?

We're always working on improving the performance of our Actors. So if you've got any technical feedback for Brand Collaboration Scraper or simply found a bug, please create an issue on the Actor's Issues tab.
