Is this possible for something like scraping posts and comments from a public facebook page? I went ahead and created an 'app' on fb but don't really understand how to add code to scrape a page & how the approval process works.Īny help or workarounds would be greatly appreciated! Thank you. Here's a feature request: add an Expand all comments button above all posts. For example, you might want to approve all new comments. I do have to wonder though about the coding style. When there are lots of comments under a post, they're automatically collapsed, and if you want to find ( Ctrl + F) a specific word/phrase on the page, you have to look for and click the show (n) more comments link under each post separately. Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner, but it really is working perfect for me now. I've seen some advice online that says you can create a facebook app and then have it approved within a week by fb. 1 3D1T0R You'll have to thank BrockAdams - it's all his magic doing samcarterwaitingforsiparty at 14:44 BrockAdams & samcarter: Thanks. Once you have inserted a comment, you can enter text in the comment box and drag the borders of the comment to move it or the handles to resize it. Threads has been in development at Meta since January under the name Project 92. Has anyone successfully scraped a facebook page in recent months since the changes? Just to clarify: the page owner would be okay with me scraping the information. To expand the size of the comment field, click and drag the corner of the text box 3. I've tried different ways to scrape a public facebook page but always get the error: HTTP Error 400: Bad Request

It looks like sometime last year, Facebook started severely restricting its Graph API.
