Facebook Followers Scraper

Facebook Followers Scraper - followers and following lists

Facebook Followers Scraper exports the followers and following lists of public Facebook Pages and public figures without logging in: for every listed account its name, profile link, username, profile picture, subtitle (city or work), type and verified badge - page after page. A second mode tracks follower, following, like and "talking about" counts of pages and profiles from run to run, with the change since the previous run, the Page creation date and whether the Page runs ads. Export JSON, CSV or Excel, or connect it through the Apify API, webhooks, Make, Zapier, n8n or Google Sheets.

How it works

facebook.com/<page>/followers/ and /following/ embed the first 8 accounts of the list together with the session values; the next pages come from Facebook's own list pagination query, whose id, variables and provider values are read from the page's JavaScript bundles on every run. Counts come from the page header; the creation date and ad status from the Page transparency tab.

Measured limits (local runs, 2026-10-03, see TEST_REPORT.md)

• 8 accounts per request: 200 of zuck's followers from 25 requests in 53 s (more available).
• Facebook shows the most recent followers first; it does not offer the full list order or a total.
• Ordinary personal profiles are not public logged out: their own followers lists cannot be read, and with includeProfileDetails they are marked not_available.
• zuck's following list is not shown; Pages show theirs (NASA 52, Hard Rock Cafe London 575).
• The transparency tab is about 16 MB per Page, so it is opt-in.

Example

{"startUrls": ["https://www.facebook.com/NASA", "https://www.facebook.com/HardRockCafeLondon/following/"],
 "lists": "both", "maxFollowers": 100, "maxFollowing": 100}
