Hey, Is there a way to get only some fields in the response? I have no need in all fields, but only the ones I want. another question - I need to get all photos from post for my application, first, do all of them return? and if they do, how can I know the names of the fields containing those photos url (there are manyyy fields with "attachments/....").Thank you!

Hi! Dataset management is separate platform feature and there is many ways and choice to select fields and formats, please check: https://docs.apify.com/platform/storage/dataset Its the same for all the datasets and actor can not apply its own logic to it.

As for albums - currently actor getting images as in post preview and there is limit as in Facebook itself: when album posted to group or page few images displayed as preview (that's what is scraped currently) and the rest marked in Facebook as "+N" images with forwarding to full album on click. Its not scraped for now because of low demand, in other words most of users do not want to get full albums from posts.

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