I tried at once. It seems the actor still throw exception as follows and I can't get the posts of the channel.
File "/usr/src/app/src/fb_minimal_post_parser.py", line 214, in __get_posts_from_page 2024-09-23T10:09:15.683Z node = edge['data']['node']['timeline_list_feed_units']['edges'][0]['node'] 2024-09-23T10:09:15.685Z ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^^^ 2024-09-23T10:09:15.687Z IndexError: list index out of range

{ "max_posts": 10, "max_retries": 5, "proxy": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": [ "RESIDENTIAL" ] }, "urls": [ { "url": "https://www.facebook.com/globaltimesnews" } ] }
It was bug due to recent FB changes. I will monitor this but let me know if there will be any issues in future! It should be fixed in 1.5.17

It still failed to scrape the posts with the latest release. could you tell me how to make this work
You can try now
snazzy_monument
thanks, I will try it now
snazzy_monument
still failed... please have a look at the run detail https://console.apify.com/view/runs/EQ5b0dl4WntDCLcgg
okay, my bad. Now it should push data correctly
snazzy_monument
the results are still too less than the posts in the channel. I tried to fetch 2000 posts from the channel, while only 84 posts were fetched. There're nearly thound results from 09-01 to now. how can I get enough results? thx
snazzy_monument
you can try to run the actor with the input in sample, you will find the failed result.
could you post link to run?
I added a few more checks, you can try now
snazzy_monument
It works perfectly now. thanks a lot.
