This actor allows you to scrape Facebook pages from search results and retrieve important details such as page name, description, photo URL, verification status, tags or categories, reviews, price range, location, hours of operation, number of followers, page slug, and page link.
How it works
This actor allows you to scrape Facebook pages from search results and retrieve important details such as page name, description, photo URL, verification status, tags or categories, reviews, price range, location, hours of operation, number of followers, page slug, and page link.
Key Features
- Multi-Query Search: Support for multiple search URLs (https://www.facebook.com/search/pages/?q=your_query) or simple keywords/search terms.
- Authentication: Requires login via cookies for comprehensive access to search results.
- Location-Based Search: Target specific cities for more relevant results (applies to all search queries).

- Customizable Parameters:
- Max pages to scrape
- Min/Max scroll delay
- Proxy configuration via Apify Proxy
Best Practices
- Use city names for location-based searches rather than countries for more precise results.
- Adjust scroll delay settings to balance between scraping speed and avoiding Facebook's anti-scraping measures.
- Utilize Apify Proxy for improved reliability and to prevent IP blocking.
