Facebook Group Posts Scraper API

The Facebook Group Posts endpoint is one API call: send either a URL or a group ID with your HProxy key and get back a clean, structured JSON object. Pull the posts inside a public Facebook group, page by page, with author, text, media and engagement on every one. HProxy runs the proxies, sessions, anti-bot handling and parsing server-side, so there is no headless browser to babysit and no parser to keep fixing when Facebook changes its markup. You only ever touch the JSON. Longer result sets come back page by page with a cursor, so you can walk the whole set without holding it in memory.

Facebook group posts questions

Answered before you ask.

The reference

Send one authenticated HTTPS request to the Facebook Group Posts endpoint with either a URL or a group ID and your HProxy API key. Pull the posts inside a public Facebook group, page by page, with author, text, media and engagement on every one. No proxies, no headless browser and no parsing on your side. The response is ready-to-use JSON.

This endpoint is 0.15¢ per successful call, which is $1.49 per 1,000. It bills from your HProxy balance with no subscription and no monthly minimum. Errors are retried and never charged; a lookup whose target does not exist counts as a call.

No. Every call runs on HProxy's own residential network behind the scenes, so requests look like real users. The proxy layer is already included in the per-call price.

A structured JSON object with the full group posts data Facebook exposes publicly. See the fields listed above. The schema is consistent across calls, so you integrate once and rely on it.

Yes. The response carries a cursor; pass it back on the next call to continue from where you stopped. Each page is one billable call, so you only pay for the depth you actually pull.

The API only accesses publicly available Facebook data, the same pages anyone can open in a browser. You are responsible for using the data in line with applicable laws and Facebook's terms for your use case.

Docs and AI

Connect your scraper to an AI, any time.

The whole Scraper API is published as markdown, so an assistant reads every endpoint, every parameter and a real response without a key and writes your integration. And because a scrape is one GET that answers in JSON, an agent can run the scraper itself, on its own schedule, with your key.
