Facebook Post / Reel Details
scrapecreators_get_v1_facebook_postRetrieves a single public Facebook post or reel by URL. Use one request per reel, passing its returned /reel/ URL from /v1/facebook/profile/reels, to retrieve available like_count, reaction_counts, comment_count, share_count, and a more precise view_count when Facebook exposes it. This endpoint accepts a single URL, not a batch; exact views are not guaranteed. Returns post_id, like_count, comment_count, share_count, view_count, description, creation_time, and author details, including the author handle when Facebook exposes a vanity profile URL. For some reels, Facebook does not expose the sam Uses the caller's OpenAny gateway credentials. Charges and authorization are determined by the gateway.
Input Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| url | Yes | The URL of the post to get | |
| cache_max_age | No | If we have a response in the cache that is this many days old or newer, return the cached response (0 credits, with "cached": true and a "cached_at" timestamp). Otherwise, scrape a live result (1 credit; default short AI is included; allow_long_transcription=true adds 10 credits per started minute to the existing base cost). [See the Caching page for details.](https://docs.scrapecreators.com/caching) | |
| get_transcript | No | Transcription is opt-in via get_transcript=true. Default short AI (up to 120 seconds, inclusive) is included in the existing base endpoint price, with no extra AI fee. By default, successful AI transcription of videos up to 120 seconds (two minutes, inclusive) costs a flat 1 credit per request. Over 120 seconds, videos cannot be AI-transcribed by default. Set allow_long_transcription=true to opt into paid AI with no fixed duration cap: ALL successful AI transcriptions in this mode cost 10 credits per started minute, including short videos: 10 * ceil(duration_seconds / 60). For example, 177 seconds costs 30 credits and an opted-in 60 seconds costs 10 credits. Empty AI results and errors cost 0 credits for AI transcription. On detail routes, successful paid-mode AI costs are in addition to the existing base endpoint cost; media-download pricing is unchanged. Returned native captions leave the base endpoint price unchanged. Empty AI results and errors incur no AI fee; the base scrape fee still applies when the detail scrape succeeds. These routes remain synchronous. Allow at least 30 seconds on your client. Paid long transcription can exceed resource limits or timeouts, so successful transcription of long videos is not guaranteed. | |
| allow_long_transcription | No | Paid opt-in, enabled only by the literal query value 'true' (allow_long_transcription=true). Defaults to false when omitted; other values do not enable paid mode. By default, successful AI transcription of videos up to 120 seconds (two minutes, inclusive) costs a flat 1 credit per request. Over 120 seconds, videos cannot be AI-transcribed by default. Set allow_long_transcription=true to opt into paid AI with no fixed duration cap: ALL successful AI transcriptions in this mode cost 10 credits per started minute, including short videos: 10 * ceil(duration_seconds / 60). For example, 177 seconds costs 30 credits and an opted-in 60 seconds costs 10 credits. Empty AI results and errors cost 0 credits for AI transcription. This flag does not force AI and does not enable transcription or AI fallback by itself. Keep get_transcript=true or use_ai_as_fallback=true where required by the endpoint. Returned native captions still cost 1 credit on dedicated transcript routes, even for long videos with this flag; on detail routes they leave the base price unchanged. These routes remain synchronous. Allow at least 30 seconds on your client. Paid long transcription can exceed resource limits or timeouts, so successful transcription of long videos is not guaranteed. |
