Hello, there are many URLS that were not read due to internal errors.

It is worth mentioning that if I do not put a specific number in "Results amount" it works worse because it omits many more.

Something curious is that in this Actor, there were no errors and it has the same configuration but different URLs: https://console.apify.com/view/runs/kcGnCag4O1tohpCnq

Am I doing something wrong?

Hi! In your run https://console.apify.com/view/runs/3HDH8HuFvzyFGgK9A there is failed pages which actually not available either without Facebook login or not exists: https://www.facebook.com/alexrose65 https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100008377721409 https://www.facebook.com/hugo.delagarza.71 https://facebook.com/Juancarloszunigacaro https://www.facebook.com/ramon.marques.94801 https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100060149836265

In your other run https://console.apify.com/view/runs/kcGnCag4O1tohpCnq there is no failed pages because all provided URLs was reachable.

When page is not available we not getting clear explanation from Facebook, only "This content isn't available at the moment" and equal to random blocking applied to public pages to prevent bot access, so the only way is to do max retries, if page was never available it means page is not public.

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