Hello will beforetime and only newer post command work here, i only need post in a group during a specific date range and not all of them (since there are alot)

Hi! For groups date range sometimes is not available even for logged user from FB UI, so it was not implemented as a feature and no current plans for it.

I´m going to close the issue now, but if there would be anything else we could help with, please let us know.

@alexey, im also looking for this feature... there are dates in group posts so itll work, pls add i need this for my reports and research thanks

Issue is not about dates in posts, pages now support "Filters" (as you can see at Facebook) and its possible to get data exactly from defined date. Groups do not have it, so actor will need to throw away data to reach start date and its bad implementation for us because leads to confusion when user waiting for data and at his end it looks like actor does not work. Thanks why actors usually do not manipulate datasets by dates, user expected to get all the data then filter out results per date range at his end.
