Facebook Search Locations Scraper

Resolve a place name (city, region, or country) to Facebook location IDs. Use the returned id as the location_id parameter on Search Posts to scope results to a place.

Features

• Real-time Facebook data — results are fetched live at run time, never cached or stale
• No login, cookies, or proxy configuration needed — just provide the input and run
• Each result is pushed as a separate dataset item, exportable as JSON, CSV, or Excel
• Fast: a typical run finishes in seconds

Pricing

This Actor is billed per run — a flat $0.004 per run.

• One run returns all matching results for your input, and costs $0.004 — whether it comes back with one result or hundreds.
• You’re only charged when a run succeeds. Failed runs are free.
