How do I list reels from a Facebook page?

Send a GET request to /v1/facebook/profile/reels with the page url. SocialCrawl returns each reel with view count, reaction count, comment count, thumbnail URL, video URL, and publish timestamp.

Can I download the reel videos?

The response includes direct video URLs hosted by Facebook. You can stream them, download them for archival, or pass them into video analysis pipelines. Note that Facebook's video URLs may expire — refresh before long-term use.

How do I paginate through older reels?

Take the cursor or next_page_id from the response and pass it back as cursor on the next request. Walk until cursor is empty. This surfaces the full public reels history in reverse-chronological order.

Is view count included?

Yes. Each reel returns its current view count — the same number shown on Facebook. Great for benchmarking short-form content performance, tracking competitor reach, or building creator analytics dashboards.

Do I need the new Facebook Graph API v19+?

No. SocialCrawl does not require any Graph API version or access token. The endpoint reads publicly available reels data directly — no app review, no OAuth, just your SocialCrawl x-api-key.
