# Facebook New Comments Only, Daily

**Use case:** 

Keep watch on the comments under your ads, announcements or a competitor's posts: each daily run gets only the comments added to public Facebook posts and reels since the last run, newest first; new replies under older comments are not returned. Comments an earlier run saved are skipped and not charged.

## Input

```json
{
  "startUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://www.facebook.com/NASA/posts/pfbid02oiNe7Qv1J9vDhhYw6bLqyVpF5fmy28wisVPKGgo3mMEh1HzBburWxYM48ppR3WQgl"
    },

    }
  ],
  "maxCommentsPerPost": 100,
  "includeReplies": true,
  "sortOrder": "newest",
  "onlyNewItems": true
}
```

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [Facebook Comments Scraper: With Replies](https://apify.com/luzivanlt/facebook-comments-scraper.md) with a specific input configuration.

## 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/luzivanlt/facebook-comments-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`).
