hello, can you share your input, and what would you like to achieve?

Sure. I am just trying to scrape posts in a date range. I use the rental (apify/facebook-posts-scraper) scraper daily. So I would ultimately like to be able to specify a list of facebook pages to scrape via a link to a URL document. I use the API with a script to calculate the date of my last scrape (which is always yesterday), and then run the scraper. Essentially scrapping all the posts since my last scrape.

I have noticed other scrapers allowing for relative scraping time frames, such as "Since Yesterday," for example, in the Instagram scrapers. That would also be helpful for a time range.

Here is the input json for my scrape that returned no posts:

{ "end_date": "2025-04-17", "max_posts": 100, "query": "https://www.facebook.com/hunterspei", "search_type": "posts", "start_date": "2025-04-17" }

Here is the output.:

so you want to scrape all posts from given page? In that case you need to use post scraper, because this one only scraps search results
