From Request to Clean JSON

You write one line. We do everything between the request and the data.

You send

One API call

GET the Facebook endpoint with your key. That's all your code does.

We handle

Proxies · captchas · parsing

Residential exit, anti-bot walls, JS rendering and extraction, all server-side, on us.

You get

Clean JSON

A structured object every time. No HTML, no scraping code, no maintenance.

The Facebook Post endpoint is one API call: send a URL with your HProxy key and get back a clean, structured JSON object. Pull a single Facebook post from its URL: full text, attached media, author, reactions, comments and share count. 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.

What the Facebook Post API returns

posts[]

Each post with text, media and permalink.

author

Poster handle, ID and display name.

stats

Reactions, comments and shares per post.

createdAt

Publish timestamp, so you can sort and dedupe.

POST with a JSON body works too. Failed calls, timeouts and rate-limited calls are never billed.

Scraping Facebook post in three steps

Create a free account

Grab your API key

One key from the dashboard authenticates every scraper, Facebook post included.

Call the endpoint

Send the target to the Facebook Post endpoint and read the JSON. That is the whole integration.

No captchas, ever

Anti-bot walls, JS rendering and rate limits are handled server-side. You call an API, that is the whole job.

Residential-backed

Every request exits through HProxy's own residential network, so it looks like a real user on a real device.

Pay per call

No subscription, no seat licenses. Calls are billed from your balance and the balance never expires.

Fresh on every call

Responses are scraped live at request time, no stale cache dressed up as data.

Failures are free

Automatic retries first; if an extraction still fails, the call is not charged.

Scales with you

From one call to millions: same endpoint, same price curve, volume discounts as you grow.

What people build with it

Track everything an account publishes, automatically.

Feed a content archive or compliance record.

Facebook Post scraper FAQ

How do I scrape Facebook post?

Send one authenticated HTTPS request to the Facebook Post endpoint with a URL and your HProxy API key. Pull a single Facebook post from its URL: full text, attached media, author, reactions, comments and share count. No proxies, no headless browser and no parsing on your side. The response is ready-to-use JSON.

What does the Facebook post scraper return?

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

How much does it cost to scrape Facebook post?

This endpoint is 0.3¢ per successful call, which is $3.00 per 1,000. It bills from your HProxy balance with no subscription and no monthly minimum, and failed extractions are retried and never charged.

Do I need my own proxies to scrape Facebook?

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.

Is scraping Facebook post allowed?

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.
