📈 Performance & Limits

⚡ Speed & Efficiency

Metric	Value	Notes
Processing Speed	~2-5 pages/second	Depends on network and page size
API Response Time	~300ms - 2s per page	Usually < 1s for cached pages
Batch Processing	Up to 100 pages/run	Recommended for stability
Retries	Automatic	Smart backoff & key rotation

💰 Cost Optimization Tips

• Limit input to only the pages you need right now
• Split very large lists across multiple runs
• Cache and deduplicate page URLs before running
• Monitor run logs and dataset size in Apify Console

---

💡 Best Practices

✅ Recommended Workflows

• Start with 5-10 pages to validate fields and output
• Mix URLs and usernames as needed; the actor normalizes them
• Keep your input list clean (no duplicates, correct casing not required)
• Use Dataset views in Apify to export CSV/JSON/Excel easily

🚀 Performance Tips

• Add a short delay between very large batches (the actor already rate-limits)
• Re-use previous results and only re-run for new pages
• Prefer stable page URLs over redirected vanity links

---

❓ FAQ

Q: How many pages can I extract in one run?

A: We recommend up to 100 pages per run for best stability and speed. You can run multiple batches.

Q: Do I need full URLs or just usernames?

A: Both work. You can input MrBean or https://www.facebook.com/MrBean. The actor normalizes automatically.

Q: Can I get followers and likes counts?

A: Yes. We provide both exact counts (if available) and formatted display strings.

Q: Does this work for private or restricted pages?

A: Only publicly available page data can be extracted.

Q: Will there be rate limits?

A: The actor includes built-in retry and backoff logic. If rate-limited, it rotates and retries automatically.

Q: Is the data real-time?

A: Data reflects what is publicly visible at fetch time. Use the fetched_at field to track freshness.

🛠️ Troubleshooting

🚨 Common Issues & Solutions

Issue	Possible Cause	Solution
❌ "No page URLs provided"	Empty page_urls array	Add at least one valid Facebook page URL or username
❌ "Invalid page URL"	Malformed URL/username	Use standard facebook.com/PageName or just PageName
⚠️ "No page details found"	Page restricted/removed	Verify the page is public and accessible
⏱️ Slow run	Very large input list	Split into smaller batches (e.g., 50-100 pages)
🔄 "Rotating to next key"	Temporary rate limiting	Normal behavior - actor retries automatically

🔍 Debugging Steps

1. Open the page URL in a browser and confirm it loads publicly
2. Test with a single well-known page (e.g., MrBean)
3. Check run logs in Apify Console for detailed messages
4. Remove duplicates and re-run
5. Re-run after a short wait if rate-limited

📝 Error Messages Explained

• "HTTP 400" – Invalid request parameters
• "HTTP 429" – Rate limit exceeded (the actor retries automatically)
• "HTTP 500" – Upstream service error (temporary)
