How to use

Input

Provide a list of Facebook page URLs or usernames:

{
    "pageUrls": [
        "https://www.facebook.com/NASA",
        "https://www.facebook.com/facebook",
        "pizzaburgbd"
    ],
    "delayBetweenRequests": 3,
    "scrapeDetailedStats": true,
    "maxRetries": 2
}

• pageUrls (required) — Full URLs or just usernames (e.g., NASA).
• delayBetweenRequests — Seconds between requests. Default: 3. Increase to 5-10 for large batches.
• scrapeDetailedStats — Fetch detailed engagement metrics. Default: true.
• maxRetries — Retry failed pages up to N times. Default: 2.

    "page_id": "54971236771",
    "is_business_page": false,
    "page_followers": "26M followers",
    "page_followers_count": 26864809,
    "page_likes_count": 26864809,
    "page_talking_count": 102544,
    "page_category": "Government organization",
    "page_phone": null,
    "page_email": null,
    "page_website": "https://www.nasa.gov",
    "page_address": null,
    "scraped_at": "2025-03-31T12:00:00+00:00"
}

Limitations

• Only public Facebook pages can be scraped. Private profiles/groups are not supported.
• Facebook may rate-limit or block requests from datacenter IPs. Use Apify proxy for better reliability.
• Some fields (phone, email, address) are only available if the page owner has made them public.
• This Actor does not scrape posts, comments, or reactions — only page-level metadata.

Cost & Performance

• ~1-3 seconds per page (plus configurable delay).
• Very low compute — 128 MB memory is sufficient.
• 100 pages ≈ 5-8 minutes with default 3s delay.
