[CRITICAL] Page description is truncated

Closed

Running scraper on the following page https://www.facebook.com/cfaaudit gives truncated description field:

"This is the official page of CFA Auditors Limited. We are a team of..."

Page description is very important for my market research project and I'm not sure why its not properly handled by the crawler, given that description is one of the most common fields on social media. Is there any way to get the complete description?

Hi!

For backward compatibility the info values should be kept as is, the new data source for full intro text was added in the latest build as an intro dataset item property, see sample run https://console.apify.com/view/runs/kKRdLYUh2FjLidLVO

Thanks for your feedback and patience! The fix was delayed due to the recent changes Meta made to the other data.

I will close the issue now, but if there is anything else we could help with, please let us know.
