Facebook Profile and Page Search Results Scraper

🔎 Search Facebook Profiles and Pages by Keyword

Researchers, marketers, and developers can search Facebook with one keyword and collect public profile and Page matches. The Actor returns structured dataset rows with names, direct Facebook URLs, Facebook IDs, verification status, and public image links when Facebook exposes them. Use the rows for public profile and Page research, lead-list building, or other workflows that need machine-readable Facebook search data.

• Find public profile and Page matches with Facebook Search Without Account.
• Search for a named profile or Page with Facebook Search By Name Without Account.
• Search by a person's name with Free Facebook Search By Name.
• Review profile-focused matches with Search Facebook Profile Anonymously.
• Try a name and city phrase with Find Friends On Facebook By Name And City.

📋 Public profile and Page matches

Each dataset row is one public Facebook profile or Page match found for the keyword. The row includes resultType, and Facebook may also expose a name, direct URL, Facebook ID, verification flag, and image links. Optional fields can be missing when Facebook does not expose them.

Facebook's public search surface is not an exhaustive source, so the dataset contains only the matches that it exposes.

▶️ Search once, then review the dataset

Enter one keyword and start a run. The Actor saves eligible matches as it finds them and continues until maxItems is reached or the public search surface is exhausted. If the same source profile or Page appears again, the first eligible occurrence is kept and later matches are ignored. The saved row describes only that first match.

Use maxItems when you want a shorter run. Leave it empty to return all available results until the source is exhausted.

⚙️ Input

Enter one keyword for each run. The Actor searches public Facebook profile and Page results for that value. The input has no fixed upper bound for maxItems.

Input fields

Field	Type	What it does
keyword	string	One keyword or phrase used for this run. This field is required.
maxItems	integer	Optional limit on saved rows. It must be at least 1. Leave it empty to return all available results until the source is exhausted.

Example input

This example is copied from the successful current-beta default-input run.

{
  "keyword": "photographer",
  "maxItems": 1
}

Use a separate run for each keyword. One run does not combine several independently configured keyword searches.

The run output contains a link to the default dataset. The dataset has one row shape for public profile and Page matches.

❓ FAQ

Does this Actor need a Facebook login?

No. It searches public Facebook data and does not require your Facebook login or private account details.

Can one run search several keywords?

No. Enter one keyword or phrase per run. Start another run when you need a different search.

What does an empty Maximum results value do?

It returns all available results until the source is exhausted. maxItems has no fixed upper bound in the input schema.

Does it return private profiles or Pages?

No. The Actor is limited to public profile and Page matches exposed by Facebook. Private, login-only, or otherwise restricted content is outside its scope.

Does it return groups, posts, or events?

No. This Actor covers public profile and Page search results. Groups, posts, events, and other search surfaces are outside its scope.

Why is a field missing from a row?

Facebook does not expose every field for every public match. The Actor keeps available values and leaves optional source fields out when they are not available.

What happens when the same profile or Page appears twice?

The first eligible occurrence is saved. Later occurrences are ignored, and the saved row describes only that first match.

Is the search exhaustive?

No. The Actor returns matches exposed by Facebook's public search surface, not every profile or Page that might exist.

Can a row contain only an ID or URL?

Yes. Every row has resultType and at least one of name, url, or facebookId. Other fields may be missing when Facebook does not expose them.
