What data does it extract?

One row per post/video:

Field	Description	Example
channel	Page / owner name	NASA
title	Post or video title	Launch highlights
view_count	Video views	250000
likes	Total reactions	4200
reactions_breakdown	Per-reaction counts	{"Like":3000,"Love":900,"Wow":300}
comments	Comment count	310
shares	Share count	25
post_url	Canonical post URL	https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=…

Why choose this Facebook analytics scraper?

• Reactions breakdown, not just a total. See exactly how an audience reacted — Love vs Haha vs Angry — which raw "like" totals hide. Useful for sentiment and creative testing.
• Video views + plays. For watch pages you get both the view count and play count, the numbers that matter for video performance.
• No login, bulk, schedulable. Feed a list of URLs and run on a schedule to track how posts perform over time. Your Facebook account is never used.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to log in to Facebook?

No. The Actor reads public post pages anonymously — no login, no password.

Do I get the reaction breakdown or just a total?

Both. likes is the total reactions, and reactions_breakdown splits it into Like, Love, Haha, Wow, Sad and Angry where Facebook exposes them.

Which URL types work?

Public /watch/?v=… videos, /reel/<id> reels, and fb.watch share links. Reels use a reduced logged-out schema, so they return reactions/comments/shares but not always view counts.

Why did a post come back as "unavailable"?

The post may be removed, private, or require login to view. Those rows are not billed.

Is this legal?

The Actor collects only publicly available data. You are responsible for using it in compliance with the laws that apply to you and Facebook's terms.
