Fetch the comment thread on a post. The first page comes from the post’s own server-rendered shell; deeper pages replay Facebook’s comment-list GraphQL query — which is why this endpoint costs double. Credits: 10

Authorization

string

required

Your ScrapeBadger API key.

Path Parameters

string

required

Post id — numeric or pfbid. Ignored when url is supplied, but still required as a path segment (pass any placeholder, e.g. 0).

string

default:"relevance"

One of relevance, newest, most_relevant.

Response

integer

Number of comments in this page.

integer

Facebook’s own reported comment total for the post. It can exceed the number of comments actually reachable through pagination.

Pass as after for the next page.

boolean

Whether more comments are reachable.

Example

curl "https://scrapebadger.com/v1/facebook/posts/1094832771620487/comments?sort=newest" \

    new URLSearchParams({ sort: "newest" }),

total_count is what Facebook advertises, not what it will serve. Treat has_next_page: false as the real end of the thread — deep comment traversal is silently capped.
