facebook_scraper — group mode returns 0 posts (Apify free tier)

  • Status: 🟠 Open
  • Since: 2026-04-03
  • Actor: crowdpull/facebook-group-posts-scraper
  • Symptom: Run succeeds but dataset is empty for known public groups
  • Cause: Likely free tier limitation on Apify — actor needs residential proxy credits
  • Workaround: Use page mode instead (works), or upgrade Apify plan
  • Fix plan: Add fallback actor or switch default group actor

facebook_scraper — ads mode untested

  • Status: 🟡 Open
  • Since: 2026-04-03
  • Symptom: META_ADS_ACCESS_TOKEN not yet configured for testing
  • Cause: Requires FB Developer account setup
  • Workaround: Use page/search modes until token is obtained
