Profile › Posts

GET
/v1/facebook/profile/posts

Returns recent posts from a Facebook page or profile, each with the post text, like and comment counts, the per-reaction breakdown, media, and publish time. Share counts are null on a plain call.

Use it to pull a page's recent content by url or pageId. The optional include=engagement fills each row's share count, and a reel's exact views and duration, in the same call.

Metered: 20–80 credits. We reserve the ceiling when the call starts and charge what it actually used when it finishes.

Re-running the exact same call within 6h is free.

Paginates by cursor — see Pagination.

Query Parameters

url?string

Full URL of the Facebook page or profile to fetch posts for. Provide at least one of: url, pageId.

pageId?string

Facebook profile page id. Provide at least one of: url, pageId.

since?string

Only posts published on or after this date: YYYY-MM-DD (midnight UTC) or an ISO 8601 timestamp. Older posts are left off the page, and the page that reaches one ends the walk: next_cursor is not returned and pagination.stopped_at is since. Pinned posts sit out of date order and never end the walk. The page still costs what a page costs, so a daily poll pays for the pages it walks and no more.

stop_at_id?string

The id (post.id) or URL (post.url) of the newest post you already hold. The page stops just before it: that post and everything after it are left off, next_cursor is not returned, and pagination.stopped_at is known_id. A pinned post never counts as the stop point. If it is not on this page the page is returned in full with its cursor, so keep walking. pagination.stopped_at is end when the list ran out first and null while there is more to walk.

cursor?string

To paginate through the posts

include?"engagement"

Set to engagement (one token only) to fill post.engagement.shares on every row, and post.engagement.views and post.content.duration_seconds on reels, in this one call. A row that links to an event rather than a post is not looked up. Without it the call is unchanged.

Value in

  • "engagement"
recent_days?integer

Keep only posts published in the last N days (1 to 3650) and stop pagination once a page reaches older posts. Does not change the price of a page.

Range1 <= value <= 3650

Profile › Photos GET

Returns a page or profile's photos, each with a photo id, permalink, full-size image URL, thumbnail, and accessibility caption when available. Use it for a page's photo gallery. The plain row carries no author, engagement or publish time, so add the optional include=details to fill them from each photo's own post in the same call. **Metered: 20–180 credits.** We reserve the ceiling when the call starts and charge what it actually used when it finishes. Re-running the exact same call within 6h is free. Paginates by `cursor` — see [Pagination](/docs/pagination).

Profile › Reels › Full GET

Returns a page's reels with exact per-reel engagement merged in: views, likes, comments, and shares, plus each reel's id, thumbnail, and link. Use it instead of profile/reels when the numbers matter, since that list carries only a rounded view count and no likes or comments. **Metered: 100–500 credits.** We reserve the ceiling when the call starts and charge what it actually used when it finishes. Re-running the exact same call within 6h is free. Paginates by `cursor` — see [Pagination](/docs/pagination).
