OLD-PAGE-FORMAT Issue - Facebook Posts Scraper

Closed

lou_le_loup opened this issue

I am encountering an issue with the Facebook Posts Scraper when attempting to scrape pages using an older design format. The scraper returns a message stating, "[OLD-PAGE-FORMATI: 292011720954683, max results might be limited]," and the results are incomplete. It seems that the older page layout is causing limitations in the data extraction process.

Could you provide guidance or a solution on how to effectively scrape data from these older format pages? Alternatively, is there a way to adjust the scraper's settings to better handle these pages?

Hi!

In your runs I found https://www.facebook.com/groups/382135208936874/ with the issue as you described. Since its group (not page) actor just failing to get posts from it. Please use separate actor Facebook Groups scraper. For business reasons we need to keep separation between pages and groups scraper therefore logically valid URLs must be provided in input, otherwise actor will not get results.

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

Makes sense. Thanks for your feedback. I didn't make the difference between a page and a group. Wish you the best.
