This is great! Any chance you could use something like this to collect names and question responses for private facebook groups before the users have been approved? I'm so tired of copying and pasting relevant information into spreadsheets haha!
hi Adrian great Video! i followed your instructions, when i run the script the the csv file has not data in it, not sure why its not working. thanks for your help :)
I've seen several people say that this doesn't work. My first attempt was the same. The csv file had no data in it. I then tried it on a different Facebook group and it worked. I don't know why it works on some but not others.
Just check out the network requests, see where the data you want are coming from, copy the request, figure out what params you need to make more requests
Please I have installed the extension on Chrome browser and the extension is working fine.. I got some data but emails are not included in this data. Is it possible to get emails through this extension?
Mmm, can't remember. Your computer will probably sleep before anything happens to your account. When I was testing this I was running it a lot, no problems
thanks brother this is super helpful. I was trying to create something similar with python but was almost impossible cuz I'm too newbie. unfortunately I think they changed the URL reference of the text publication, I'm looking into the graphql but cant find it :( any advise?
@@the-web-scraping-guy sorry not my native language. when I runnit doesn't scrap the text of the post. everything else yes except this. I thought facebook changed the reference of the text and if I find the new url and change it in the function interceptRequests() the code will find it again. Hope this time made myself clear, Thanks for everything 🤗
For anyone else getting this, you need to use Chrome (I got the error in Safari). Also, the thing I wanted this for was to get the links that were shared in the group. However, these are not extracted by the script..
I need to do this for a community project i have in mind, in México but i need to work with someone abled, its a replicable project, Who wants to join me?
Was just looking for this the other day. Really appreciate it!

Is it because of open or closed group?
Hey Sir,
if I want to scrape a facebook group post data using python how I can do this process?
Just check out the network requests, see where the data you want are coming from, copy the request, figure out what params you need to make more requests
Please I have installed the extension on Chrome browser and the extension is working fine.. I got some data but emails are not included in this data. Is it possible to get emails through this extension?
Thanks.
What's the "safe" max number of posts you have scraped?

Hello,
what to remove in the scripts and scrape only the email addresses?
My account got blocked after I tried to run it. It worked up until it was blocked.
lol
Hola, muchas gracias!
Great, great script. Could you adapt it to get the number of reactions for each group post? Please
ok after scraping how do I add in my group
It does not work. empty output file
Not working anymore
How do you adapt this script so it logs the main post's copy + the first-level comments?
I think it does doesn’t it 😅
my posts.length is 0. So my output is a null csv. Can you help me?
fb updated
hi , the link of the script is corrupted, can you share a github repo ? thanks
It’s not corrupted at all
what do you use to record your beautiful videos
Screen studio

What benefit does this data provide?

Link is broken, not working.
this does not work
It does. Just ran it.
Hey, its not working, any advice?
SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier 'run'. ???
