VK Community Posts Scraper & New-Post Monitor (No Login)

Scrape the wall of any public VK (vk.com) community - group, public page or event - with no login, no cookies and no VK API token. Paste community URLs or short names and get one flat row per post: text, publish time, likes, reposts, views, photos, videos, clips and links, with the post URL and ID.

Turn on monitoring mode and schedule it: the first run remembers the newest post of each community, and every later run returns only the posts published since the last run. A community with nothing new costs one small check instead of rows.

Typical uses:

• Monitor VK communities for new posts - brands, media, competitors, official pages - and send them to a sheet, Slack or your database every hour or day.
• Export VK public page posts to CSV, Excel or JSON for research, media monitoring and engagement reports.
• Track engagement (likes, reposts, views) of a community's posts over time.

{
  "communityName": "Example Community",
  "postId": "-123456_7890",
  "postUrl": "https://vk.com/wall-123456_7890",
  "publishedAt": "2026-10-10T20:50:00.000Z",
  "publishedAtPrecision": "minute",
  "text": "Our new release is out today. Thank you for testing it with us! #release",

  "attachmentTypes": ["photo"],
  "postedBy": "community",
  "change": "new-post"

How to use it

1. Put one community per line in VK communities: https://vk.com/team, team, club22822305 or public22822305.
2. Set Maximum posts per community (default 20, up to 1,000).
3. For a feed of new posts, switch on Monitoring mode and add a schedule (for example every hour). The first run returns the latest posts; later runs return only new ones, oldest first.

Input field	Meaning
communities	One community per line: URL, short name or club… / public… number
maxPostsPerCommunity	Latest posts per community (1-1,000, default 20); first monitoring run only
monitoringMode	Return only posts published since the last run
resetMonitoringState	Forget what monitoring remembers and start again

{
  "communities": ["https://vk.com/habr", "https://vk.com/tproger"],
  "maxPostsPerCommunity": 10,
  "monitoringMode": false
}

Call it from your code, Make, n8n or Zapier through the Apify API, and export results as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML or RSS.

Why this Actor

• No VK account, no token, no cookies. It reads what VK shows to any logged-out visitor of the community page.
• Only new posts in monitoring mode, remembered per community by post number, so a renamed community keeps its history.
• You pay only for posts returned. Unknown names, personal profiles, empty walls and runs with nothing new come back as explained rows that are not charged.
• Honest numbers. Likes and reposts are exact; views keep both VK's display and its numeric value; times are converted from Moscow time to UTC; values VK does not show are left empty, never guessed.
• Privacy by design. Personal VK profiles are never read, and no member names or IDs are added as columns.

Pricing

Pay per event:

• post-returned - one post row.
• community-checked - monitoring mode only: a community that was checked and had nothing new.

The first monitoring run is a normal run (you pay for the posts it returns); there is no start fee. Set a maximum total charge on the run and the Actor stops before going over it, telling you in a row which communities were not read.

Uncharged rows (status)

status	Meaning
personal-page-not-supported	The line is a personal profile (id1, a person's short name). Personal pages are not read.
not-found	VK shows no public community under this name to logged-out visitors (unknown name, or a page for logged-in users only).
no-posts	The community was read and its wall shows no post to logged-out visitors.
no-new-posts	Monitoring mode: nothing new in any community since the last run.
invalid-input, duplicate-input	The line could not be read as a VK community, or was given twice.
blocked, unreadable, robots-disallowed, community-mismatch	VK refused or answered with something else, or the path is disallowed by VK's robots.txt; nothing is guessed.
page-limit, budget-reached, not-read	The run stopped at its page limit or your maximum total charge; the row says what was not read.

Good to know

• The wall is read as VK's mobile site shows it to logged-out visitors: the community's own posts, newest first, 10 per page.
• Comment counts are shown by VK only to logged-in users, so they are not part of the rows.
• VK displays views rounded down (7.9K means 7,900 to 7,999). viewsAtLeast is that lower bound; viewsCount is filled only when VK shows the exact number.
• Posts from earlier years are dated by VK with the day only, so publishedAt is empty for them and publishedDate holds the day (publishedAtPrecision: "day"). Very fresh posts shown as "5 minutes ago" are approximate.
• A pinned post appears at the top of VK's wall even when it is old; the Actor orders posts by their VK post number, so a "latest N" run returns the N newest posts.
• Closed and private communities show nothing to logged-out visitors and come back as no-posts or not-found.
• Pages are fetched at most once every 1.5 seconds, and VK's robots.txt is read and followed on every run.
• Monitoring stores one small record per community in a named key-value store of your account. Avoid two schedules monitoring the same community at the same time.
