Facebook Pages Scraper

Get the public profile of any Facebook Page — name, like & follower counts, category, tagline, profile image, website, and Page ID — from just a username or URL. No login, no cookies, no tokens. Give it a list of Pages, get back one clean JSON record each.

💵 Pricing: $3.00 per 1,000 results (pay-per-result — one result = one Page). You only pay for Pages that return data.

Great for lead lists, competitor and brand monitoring, influencer/partner research, and enriching a set of Pages you already have.

What you get

• Public Page info — name, category, like count, "talking about this", follower count, tagline/intro, profile picture, and (for many business Pages) an external website link.
• Batch input — pass many Pages in one run; each becomes its own record.
• Accepts usernames or full URLs — NASA or https://www.facebook.com/NASA both work.
• No login — reads only what a logged-out visitor sees. Nothing private.
• Predictable, flat JSON — the same keys on every record, easy for scripts and AI agents to parse.

Scope: this returns a Page's public profile info, not its post feed. (One record per Page, not a stream of posts.)

    run_input={"pages": ["NASA", "NBA"]}

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_TOKEN' });
const run = await client.actor('good-apis/facebook-pages-scraper').call({

});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items);

FAQ

Do I need a Facebook login, password, or cookies? No. The scraper reads only public Page information — the same thing you'd see without logging in.

Is this public data? Yes. It returns a Page's publicly visible profile (name, category, like/follower counts, contact info). It does not access anything private or login-gated.

Does it scrape posts, comments, or reviews? No — this actor returns page-level profile info, not the post feed. Use it to profile or enrich a list of Pages.

Why are website, followers, or category sometimes empty? Those are best-effort fields that Facebook only exposes on some Pages (mostly business Pages). When a Page doesn't publish them, the field is null.

What happens if a Page is private or doesn't exist? That record comes back with an error field describing why, instead of the profile fields — so a bad entry never silently disappears from your results.

Can I pass usernames and full URLs together? Yes. "NASA" and "https://www.facebook.com/NASA" are both accepted, in any mix.

How am I billed? Pay-per-result: $3.00 per 1,000 results, one result per Page returned. No monthly fee.
