Facebook Pages Scraper: Contacts, Followers & Latest Post

Facebook Pages Scraper

Turn a list of Facebook page links or usernames into clean page profiles. Every page becomes one row with its exact follower count, category, intro text, the website, email, phone and address it lists, profile and cover images, the verified badge, and its latest post with reaction, comment and share counts. Local businesses also return their price range, services, review score and map coordinates when the page shows them.

No Facebook account, login or cookies are needed. You only pay for pages that are actually delivered. Start with an empty input to try it: the actor then reads a two-page sample (nike, NASA) so you can see exactly what you get before you paste your own pages.

Use cases

• Lead lists: collect the public email, phone, website and address of brands, shops and venues.
• Competitor and brand tracking: follow exact follower counts, "talking about this" and check-ins over time.
• Influencer and media research: compare audience size and recent engagement across many pages.
• Data enrichment: add category, verified status and links to a list of Facebook pages you already have.

Quick Start

{
  "startUrls": [
    "https://www.facebook.com/nike",
    "https://www.facebook.com/NASA",
    "katzsdeli"
  ],
  "maxPages": 20
}

Page links, bare usernames, profile.php?id= links and numeric page IDs all work. Mobile links (m.facebook.com) and links to a page's sub-tabs or posts are reduced to the page itself, and duplicates are returned once.

Input

Input	Type	Default	Meaning
startUrls	array	empty	Facebook page links, usernames or numeric page IDs. One row per page. Leave it empty to run the two-page sample (marked usedExample: true in the run summary).
maxPages	integer	20	Cap on the number of pages read in this run. Sample runs are capped at 10.
proxyConfiguration	object	Apify proxy, United States	Where requests come from. The default suits almost every page; change the country if you need pages as seen from elsewhere.
residentialFallback	boolean	true	Allow an alternative connection for unavailable pages. Turn off to use only the proxy chosen above.

What it returns

The dataset contains one row per page:

Field	Meaning
pageId, profileId, url, username	Page identity and its canonical link.
name, category, categories	Page name and category as shown on the page.
followers, likes, following	Exact counts (likes only for pages that still show them).
talkingAbout, wereHere	People talking about the page and check-ins.
intro, description	The page's intro text and short description.
email, phone, website, websites, address	Contact details listed in the page's intro.
latitude, longitude	Coordinates of the listed address, when there is one.
priceRange, services, recommendPercent, reviewCount	Business details for shops, restaurants and venues.
socialLinks	Other accounts linked from the page, such as Instagram.
responsibleEntity	The organisation listed as responsible for the page.
introItems	Every intro line as shown, with its type, for anything not covered above.
verified	Whether the page shows the verified badge.
profilePictureUrl, coverPhotoUrl	Profile picture and cover photo links.
profilePhotoPageUrl, coverPhotoPageUrl	Links to the photos' own pages on Facebook, when the page provides them.
businessActive	Whether Facebook reports the page's business as active (the flag behind its Ad Library entry).
latestPosts	The first post Facebook includes on the page itself, normally the newest: postId, url, text, createdAt, mediaTypes, reactions, comments, shares, videoViews and a per-reaction reactionBreakdown.
input, scrapedAt	The link you supplied and the collection time (UTC, ISO 8601).
error	Always null in the dataset. Failures are reported in the run summary instead.

Fields the page does not show are null (or an empty list). The run summary (OUTPUT) reports pages (rows delivered), errors and the failed pages at pageErrors.

Failed pages

A page that cannot be read is listed in the run summary at OUTPUT.pageErrors with its link, a code and a message:

• NOT_FOUND: the page does not exist or was removed.
• LOGIN_WALL: Facebook only shows this page to logged-in visitors (age- or country-restricted pages, some personal profiles), or kept refusing anonymous visits.
• SOURCE_CHANGED: the page loaded but did not have the expected layout.

Failed pages are never dataset rows and are not charged. A run in which every page fails exits with an error instead of finishing green with an empty dataset.

Limits and caveats

• Only public pages are supported. Groups, events, Marketplace and private personal profiles are not.
• Fields Facebook shows only to logged-in visitors or on sub-pages are not collected: the long About text, the page creation date, the messenger link and whether ads are currently running. Everything in the table above comes from the public page itself.
• latestPosts holds the first post Facebook includes on the page itself, normally the newest; on pages with a pinned post this may be the pinned one. For a page's full post history, use a dedicated posts scraper.
• Follower, "talking about this" and check-in counts are exact. Reaction, comment and share counts are those shown at collection time.
• Contact details appear only when the page lists them publicly.
• Automated access is subject to Facebook's terms; use this actor only where you have the necessary permissions and a lawful basis, especially for contact details of individuals.

FAQ

Do I need a Facebook account? No. Pages are read the way any visitor who is not logged in sees them.

What happens with an empty input? The actor runs a two-page sample (nike, NASA), caps it at 10 pages and marks the run summary with usedExample: true, so an accidental or exploratory start still shows real output instead of failing.

Why is a page missing from my results? Check OUTPUT.pageErrors. Most often the page was renamed, removed, or is restricted to logged-in visitors.

Can I pass a link to a post or a page's About tab? Yes. The actor reads the page that the link belongs to.

Price

$0.006 per page delivered, plus $0.005 per run start. The run-start event is charged per GB of memory; the default 512 MB run is one start event. The start is charged even if the run saves no results. Failed pages are not charged. Platform usage is included in these prices. An empty-input sample run therefore costs the start plus up to two pages (about $0.017).

For comparison, the platform's own Facebook Pages Actor charges $12 per 1,000 pages; this one delivers the same page-profile fields, plus the latest post with its counts, for $6 per 1,000.
