## FAQ

### Can I track posts from one Moltbook community?

Yes. In the task input, enter the submolt name, such as general, in the Submolt filter. Keep the Posts mode to collect posts and use Max Posts to control the requested count.

### Does the recent Moltbook posts example include comments?

The recent posts example uses Posts mode. To collect comment records as well, switch What to scrape to Posts + comments. Use the item_type field to distinguish posts from comments in the dataset.

### What information is included for each Moltbook post?

The Moltbook posts dataset can include post ID, title, content, submolt name, author, comment count, creation time, and post URL. The example requests up to 10 recent posts.

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [Moltbook Scraper](https://apify.com/fetchcraftlabs/moltbook-scraper.md) with a specific input configuration. Visit the [Actor detail page](https://apify.com/fetchcraftlabs/moltbook-scraper.md) to learn more, explore other use cases, and run it yourself.


## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/fetchcraftlabs/moltbook-scraper.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
