Is there a way to __scrape__ content from Facebook closed groups?


Is there a way to systematically __scrape__content from Facebook closed groups? I am member of some Facebook closed groups and i would like to monitor this groups for the occurrence of certain words - is there a possibility for this?

I have found this tool: https://mkonrad.net/projects/facebook-discussion-tk.html - but you need to manualy collect data from closed groups.


Solution

  • Facebook used to allow group-scraping (at least programmatically via their API), but not anymore.

    The user_group permission, which used to allow that, is now deprecated and will be replaced by user_managed_groups
