Facebook post comments

Comments and threaded replies on public Facebook posts, reels and videos, with comment text, author name and profile, timestamp, like count and threading depth.

Use to read the conversation under a specific Facebook post: sentiment, objections, questions, or who is engaging. Needs post URLs, not page URLs. Every reply counts as its own billed comment when includeNestedComments is on.

Price

$0.0060 per comment. That is the rate you pay for each comment the call returns, so the total depends on how many it produces. Billing follows actual usage, so a call that returns fewer comments costs less. discover and inspect also return a ceiling for your specific request, which is a maximum you will never be charged above.

Input

Field	Type	Required	Notes
`startUrls`	`array`	yes	Facebook post, reel or video URLs, one object per post.
`viewOption`	`RANKED_THREADED`, `RECENT_ACTIVITY`, `RANKED_UNFILTERED`		Comment sort order: most relevant, newest, or all. Defaults to `"RANKED_UNFILTERED"`.
`resultsLimit`	`integer`		Maximum comments to return per post. Leave unset to return as many as possible, which can be thousands and is billed per comment.
`includeNestedComments`	`boolean`		Return up to 3 levels of replies. Each reply is a separate result and is billed as its own comment. Defaults to `false`.
`onlyCommentsNewerThan`	`string`		COSTS EXTRA. YYYY-MM-DD, full ISO, or relative like “3 days”. Apify bills an additional filter-applied event of $0.001 per post scraped with a date filter.

Goro forwards your input to the underlying tool unchanged, so any field the tool accepts works here even if it is not listed above.
