## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability facebook-reels-scraper-01be9403 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Pull the last 50 public reels from the Coca-Cola Facebook page (facebook.com/cocacola) — only reels posted in the past 30 days — and give me each reel's URL, caption, and post date.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured metadata (URLs, captions, timestamps, IDs) for public Facebook Reels at scale across one or more pages. It is pay-per-call with no charge for empty runs, making it cost-effective for exploratory or intermittent scraping. Prefer this over generic web scrapers when you specifically need Facebook Reels structured output without building custom parsing logic.

## Known failure modes

- Facebook page is private or restricted — returns empty items array
- Invalid or malformed Facebook page URL — may return error or empty result
- Rate limiting or scraping blocks from Facebook — partial or empty result
- resultsLimit set to 0 with a page with no public reels — returns empty count
- onlyPostsNewerThan date is too recent, filtering out all available reels — empty result

## How this service works

Pay-per-call structured web data. Failed or empty runs are not charged.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a count of reels found and an items array. Each item contains: text (caption), postId, postUrl, reelUrl, videoId, inputUrl, createdAt, and facebookUrl. Empty or failed runs are not billed.
