Let’s quickly jump into how to use the Facebook Group Scraper.
Step 1: Signup & Setup for Facebook Group Scraper
If you haven’t already signed up for an account on Prospectss head on to Prospectss & sign up on it. Once you have signed up you can download the extension from the Chrome Web Store. Alternatively, you can also get the link to the chrome store extension from the Facebook Group Scraper page.
Once you are done installing the extension, you’ll have to Pin the extension as we will be using this extension quite often. Here is how you can pin the chrome extension.
Now, we will have to authenticate the extension, basically just log in with the email that you used to signup on Prospectss & Account Key.
You can get your Account Key from several places. The account key is emailed to every user after signing up on Prospectss. Don’t worry if you’ve missed that, you can always head on to the Profile Page and get it from there.
Step 2: Scraping Facebook Group
We are all set to start scraping Facebook groups now. Visit the Facebook Group that you want to scrape. We can scrape both Public & Private Groups, but for Scraping Private Groups you will have to join the group & be a member of it first. On the group page, you will have to visit the Member or People Section.
Don’t worry if you can’t find the members section as it might be different for people in a distant region or it can be different if the group is public. The Members page would be called as People Section. Here is how that looks.
Step 3: Start the Scraping Process
Once you are on the Group Member/People page click ‘Start Scraping’ to start the process of FB Group Scraping. The first 1-20,000 profiles will be scraped quickly however, the extension might take some more time to scrape massive groups. You may get an error msg on the extension that your profile has been rate limited by Facebook, do not worry as this rate limit would not lead to suspension of your account & is usually lifted within 24-48 hours. You can switch between tabs but do not refresh the page on which the extension is running. During the process, you can stop the scraping whenever you want & still get the results of all the accounts scraped. However, if you scrape the same group again then the extension will start scraping again all the profiles & credits will be charged for the same.
Step 4: Download Scraped Data
The last step in the process of Scraping from Facebook is to download your scraped results. After the scraping is completed click on the ‘View Data‘ button to be redirected to Prospectss where you will be able to save the scraped data. You won’t be charged any credits before unlocking the results & you can choose if you want to download Scraped Data with Emails, UID, or both. If you choose to download the data with just emails, only credits for the emails found will be charged but you won’t get the UID of the scraped profiles. Similarly, you can choose between these options based on your personal preferences.
