Get the post contents?

Hey, is there anyway to scrape the post content/messages as well? I was trying to scrape the content to add to your available data just to explore for fun, but apparently I could only get ~10% of the posts in the same period as your dataset :C

Hi @chocolocked. You should be able to obtain the messages from Facebook API's /post endpoint, by requesting the message field. If a FB page has deleted the post, however, that post won't be available via the API, unfortunately.

Does that answer your question?

I'm currently using programs utilizing facebook API, but I think it just returns a random portion of searched results though. Like there should be ~200 posts that could be scraped, but it only gives me ~20. So just curious if there any way to get around it. But yeah, thanks anyway :3
