Facebook Profile Reels API

Scrape Facebook Profile Reels data with one API call. Returns Facebook page or profile reels as unified Post items. Each item includes a reel ID, description, thumbnail, duration when available, author identity, `engagement.views` when the upstream provides it, permalink, and publish time. Likes, comments, shares, and saves remain null because this endpoint does not expose those counts. **Two caveats worth knowing before you grade on these numbers:** (1) `engagement.views` here is Facebook's ROUNDED public display value (the "12K" / "2.6M" the page shows, parsed back to a number: e.g. 12000 where the true count is 12366), not an exact count; (2) the upstream carries no per-reel engagement beyond that view count. For EXACT views plus likes, comments, and shares, the easiest path is `GET /v1/facebook/profile/reels/full`, which runs this list and the per-reel lookups server-side and merges the exact engagement in (flat 5 credits per page of 10 reels). Alternatively, take each item's `post.url` and pass it to `/v1/facebook/post` (single) or batch up to 100 of them into `POST /v1/prism/post-stats` (1 credit per successful URL, dead links refunded).

Last updated August 2026Maintained by the SocialCrawl team

Returns a page or profile's reels, each with a reel id, description, thumbnail, permalink, publish time, and a rounded public view count.

Use it for a cheap reel listing; when you need exact views plus likes, comments, and shares, use profile/reels/full instead.

FAQ

Find answers to frequently asked questions about SocialCrawl's API, pricing, and capabilities.

Contact us
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.
