# Transcribe One Facebook Reel to Text (Single URL)

**Use case:** 

Paste one public Facebook reel URL, click Start, and get its transcript back as clean text. Simplest run - no configuration, no API key required. Free plan covers this. Ideal for quick fact-checks, quote pulls, and one-off content research. Every field except startUrls is optional; leave everything else at its default.

## Input

```json
{
  "startUrls": [
    "https://www.facebook.com/reel/1114235920664408"

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [Facebook Reel Transcript & Caption Scraper [NO LOGIN] ✅](https://apify.com/unseenuser/fb-transcript.md) with a specific input configuration. Visit the [Actor detail page](https://apify.com/unseenuser/fb-transcript.md) to learn more, explore other use cases, and run it yourself.


## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/unseenuser/fb-transcript.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
