Facebook Pages Scraper: Page Info, Posts & Comments

Scrape public Facebook Pages without logging in. Give it a page and it returns the page details plus the posts that the page shows to a logged out visitor (about 20 per page). Give it a single post link and it also returns the comments that the post page shows.

No login, no cookies, no API key, no browser. Plain HTTP requests to facebook.com.

What you get

• Page rows: page name, page id, page URL, category, verified flag, followers, talking about, were here, description text, profile picture URL and how many posts the page carried.
• Post rows: post id, permalink, text, creation time, reactions, comments, shares, video views, media type, image URLs, and the page it came from.
• Comment rows: author name, text, creation time, reactions and the post they belong to (from single post links).

Input

The default run reads NASA and BBC News:

{
  "pageUrls": ["https://www.facebook.com/NASA", "https://www.facebook.com/bbcnews"],
  "maxPostsPerPage": 20,
  "maxItems": 200,
  "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true }
}

pageUrls accepts a page name (NASA or @NASA), a page link (https://www.facebook.com/NASA) or a numeric page link (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100044561550831).

postUrls takes single post, video or photo links:

{
  "pageUrls": [],
  "postUrls": ["https://www.facebook.com/NASA/posts/pfbid09brqCCTZ2tMaqk582QcQo83AgQoc3s9xE5H82qkMQBsNokX3knkXckksXddVNhxfl"],
  "includeComments": true,
  "maxCommentsPerPost": 20
}

Field	Default	What it does
pageUrls	none (prefill NASA + bbcnews)	Public pages to read. One page row plus its latest posts each.
postUrls	none	Single post, video or photo links. One post row plus its visible comments each.
maxPostsPerPage	20	Posts to keep per page, 0 to 50. 0 gives the page row only.
includeComments	true	Deliver the visible comments of postUrls.
maxCommentsPerPost	20	Comments to keep per post link, 0 to 100.
maxItems	200	Hard cap on charged rows in one run.
proxyConfiguration	Apify datacenter proxy	Proxy for the requests. Direct requests also work.

Give pageUrls, postUrls, or both. A run with {} reads https://www.facebook.com/NASA.

Counts (reactions, comments, shares, videoViews, followers) are the numbers the page shows to a logged out visitor. comments is the count the post page reports and can be higher than the number of comment rows, because facebook.com only renders a subset of comments.

Limits

• About 20 latest posts per page. facebook.com serves no deeper pagination to logged out requests, so older posts are not available.
• Public Pages only. No personal profiles, no groups, no Marketplace listings.
• Login gated, age restricted or region restricted pages come back as not_found_or_login_wall and are not charged.
• Only the comments the post page renders are available, and only for single post links. There are no further comment pages.
• videoUrl is null: facebook.com does not serve a direct video file to logged out requests. Video posts still carry their poster frame in imageUrls and their view count in videoViews.
• followers, talkingAbout and wereHere are parsed from the page description in English. If the page is served in another language those counts stay null instead of guessing.
