Frequently asked questions
How much does Facebook post comments cost?
Prices start at $0.0017 per record, depending on the offer that serves the request. You are only charged for records actually returned.
Which offers serve facebook/post.comments?
brightdata/facebook — 1 offer is available behind the same endpoint. Pin one with the optional "provider" field, or omit it and the router picks with automatic failover. The response's "served_by" field names the offer that ran.
What input does it need?
The "urls" field of the JSON body, as an array of strings: https://www.facebook.com/<page>/posts/<post_id>. For example: https://www.facebook.com/nasa/posts/pfbid02XyZAbC123
Is the output format the same for every offer?
Yes. Every offer returns the normalized record schema documented on this page; some add extra platform-specific fields on top, but the documented fields are always present.
How many URLs can I send per request?
Up to 1000 URLs in a single request, depending on the offer.
What happens if an offer fails?
SocialRouter automatically fails over to the next offer serving the same service, so a single upstream outage doesn't break your integration.
