Scrape public Facebook posts, reels, videos, and visible engagement data from pages, profiles, and public groups. Unofficial actor, not affiliated with Facebook or Meta.
Relaxed public post container detection so logged-out public pages with modern Facebook post cards still emit posts.
Removed brittle text-only unavailable-surface matching that could misclassify usable public pages with login prompts.
0.3.6 - 2026-03-23
Fixed
Added surface diagnostics logging when zero posts are found, distinguishing login walls from genuinely empty pages.
Improved empty-run classification after residential proxy fallback retry.
0.3.5 - 2026-03-23
Fixed
Marked runs as failed when every Facebook target errors out, instead of reporting them as successful empty runs.
Clarified emptyRunPolicy docs so it only applies to reachable public surfaces that genuinely return zero posts.
0.3.4 - 2026-03-22
Fixed
Passed the Facebook surface readiness timeout to Playwright using the correct page.waitForFunction(fn, arg, options) signature.
Prevented Apify cloud runs from silently falling back to Playwright's default 30 second wait, which was still triggering empty-run retries for some public pages.
0.3.3 - 2026-03-22
Fixed
Recovered gracefully when Facebook's public page shell is usable but readiness probing times out.
Added regression coverage for readiness timeout recovery during navigation.
0.3.2 - 2026-03-21
Fixed
Added support for absolute Facebook timestamps (e.g. "March 15, 2026") alongside relative time labels.
Aligned Apify actor version format for consistent Store builds.
0.3.1 - 2026-03-21
Fixed
Hardened Facebook page navigation so logged-out scraping can recover when domcontentloaded stalls in cloud runs.
Relaxed source metadata readiness checks to avoid failing healthy targets that render the page shell before the header finishes loading.

Marketplace-ready README with stronger SEO copy, API examples, FAQ, use cases, and pricing guidance.
Production launch guide with Store metadata, pricing recommendations, monetization setup notes, and publish checklist.
Additional dataset views for engagement analysis and source metadata review.
