Facebook Page Monitor: New Posts & Engagement Growth

Facebook Page Monitor - Point it at any public Facebook Page on a schedule and get only the posts that are new since your last run - plus how much each post's reactions, comments and shares grew.

What does Facebook Page Monitor do?

Every repeat run tells you which posts are new and adds reactionsChange, commentsChange and sharesChange per post since your last run, so you see which posts are taking off - the popular Facebook post scrapers return the same full list every time and leave the diff to you.

• Only new posts since your last run (daily alerts)
• Reactions, comments and shares - and how much each grew since last run
• Post text, time, link and images
• Many Pages in one run, by address or just the name
• Drop-in for apify/facebook-posts-scraper: startUrls, resultsLimit, onlyPostsNewerThan/OlderThan and url, likes, facebookUrl, pageName, timestamp fields

Who uses Facebook Page Monitor, and for what

• Agencies - get a competitor's new Facebook posts every morning
• Social media managers - see which posts are taking off by reaction growth
• Journalists - watch news and brand Pages for fresh posts
• Brands - track engagement on partner Pages without exporting by hand

Why this Facebook Page Monitor?

Facebook keeps changing its page data and its logged-out limits, so cheap scrapers break or return nothing. This Facebook Page Monitor checks every run and tells you plainly when a page could not be read, instead of returning empty or wrong rows.

How to use Facebook Page Monitor

1. Press Start - the form already holds an example that works.
2. Put in your own input (see the fields on the Input tab).
3. Run it once, or put it on an Apify Schedule (with only new on, where the form has it) to get just what is new every day; add a webhookUrl to get each run's rows sent to your own system, Zapier, Make or Slack.
4. Download the results as JSON, CSV or Excel, or send them to Google Sheets, Zapier, Make, the Apify API or an AI agent (Apify MCP server).

One flat row per result.

Built for pipelines

• Field names never change - fixes and new features only ever add fields, so your code keeps working.
• Every row has the same shape - a missing value is null, never a dropped field.
• A plain status line on every run - how many results, and on a problem what to change in the input - for your logs and for AI agents.
• Runs on its own - put it on an Apify Schedule and add a webhookUrl: each run's rows go straight to your system, Zapier, Make or Slack.

How much does Facebook Page Monitor cost?

You pay only per result (pay per event) - no monthly fee, no minimum, and the price per result is lower on Apify's Bronze, Silver and Gold plans. The exact price is on the Pricing tab. Apify's free plan credit is enough to try it on real input.

You want	What you pay for
A quick test with the example	a few results
A daily scheduled run	only the rows that run returns
A big one-off export	the results delivered - set a maximum in the input

FAQ

Does Facebook Page Monitor need a login, cookies or an API key? No. It reads public pages only.

Can I run Facebook Page Monitor on a schedule? Yes - with Apify Schedules; each run returns fresh rows.

Can I call it from Python, JavaScript or an AI agent? Yes - through the Apify API, the Apify client libraries or the Apify MCP server.

Is it legal? It collects only data anyone can see without logging in. You are responsible for using it within the source site's terms and data protection law (GDPR, CCPA).

What if the site blocks a request? The run retries from a fresh connection and, if it still cannot read the page, stops with a clear message - never with made-up rows.

Do I need proxies? No setup needed - Facebook Page Monitor uses Apify Proxy by default where the site needs it.

Troubleshooting

• No results: check the input (a public URL or a search term that returns results in a normal browser), then try the example input once.
• Fewer results than expected: raise the maximum in the input; some sites show only a part of their data without logging in, and Facebook Page Monitor never logs in.
• The run stopped with a message: the message says what the site answered; run it again later or with fewer items.
