About Facebook Event Search Scraper
Need to understand who's really in a Facebook group? This scraper pulls clean, structured data directly from Facebook group member lists, so you can stop manual collection and start analyzing. It grabs each member's name, their profile link, their role in the group (like admin or member), when they joined, and any other public details they have listed. I use it to quickly map out communities for research or to find potential leads that actually match my target audience. Instead of guessing who your audience is, you get a spreadsheet with the facts, which is perfect for validating a market or building a contact list for outreach. It runs on Apify, so you set your target group URL and it handles the rest, automating what would otherwise be hours of tedious copying and pasting. It’s straightforward: point it at a group, get the data, and use that information to make smarter decisions about community engagement or lead generation.
