Facebook Posts Scraper

Extract posts from any public Facebook Page or profile — text, engagement counts, video URLs, and author details. No login required.

What you get

• Post content: caption text, direct URL, and canonical permalink
• Engagement: total reactions, a per-type reaction breakdown (like/love/care/haha/wow/sad/anger), comments, and video view counts
• Media: image URLs, and SD/HD video URLs plus thumbnail for video posts
• Author: name, short name, and profile ID
• Timestamps: exact publish time (ISO 8601)
• Paginated output: each run returns a cursor so you can fetch a profile's full history across multiple runs
• Export to JSON, CSV, or Google Sheets directly from the Apify console

Use cases

• Competitor content and posting-cadence analysis
• Audience research and engagement benchmarking
• Lead generation and brand monitoring
• Building content datasets for reporting

How to use

1. Enter a Facebook Page or profile — a full URL (https://www.facebook.com/nasa), a handle (nasa), or a numeric Page ID
2. Set Max Posts (default 100; set 0 for unlimited)
3. Run the actor — results appear in the Dataset tab
4. To fetch more, open the Key-value store tab → copy the NEXT_PAGE_ID value → paste it into Page ID on your next run. If NEXT_PAGE_ID is null, you've fetched everything.
