Free on GitHub, paid in hours
Anyone can clone a free MCP to scrape Facebook. Whether that stays free depends on the shape of your project.
Self-hosted costs and hours are illustrative budgets for one custom scraper. Engineering time is separate from infrastructure spend.

FAQ
Before you wire it in
Which Facebook profiles can an agent access?
The tool reads publicly available Facebook profiles and Pages. Send a username, with or without @, or a numeric profile ID. Groups and private personal accounts are not supported. HasData is an independent service, not an official Meta integration.
Do I need to connect a Facebook account?
No Facebook password, session cookie or Page administrator token is required. Authenticate with HasData through OAuth or your API key. The tool does not expose private account data or administrator analytics.
Does it return comments or let an agent publish posts?
Posts include reaction, comment and share counts. Comment text and reply threads are not included. The tool reads public data and has no publishing, messaging or advertising-management actions.
How can an agent retrieve more posts?
When the response includes pagination.nextPageToken, send it in the next call with the same handle. Each page is a separate request. The available feed is not a guaranteed complete history of the account.
Why are follower counts returned as text?
Facebook displays follower and following totals as localized strings. The language parameter changes those display strings and labels, while fields such as likesCount remain numeric. It does not translate user-written posts.
Are the playground examples live?
The playground shows recorded response excerpts and illustrative agent summaries. It does not execute the sample prompts. Connect the MCP server to make your own requests.
How does billing work across MCP and the API?
MCP tool calls use the same workspace balance as direct API requests. The tool table shows the applicable rate, and failed requests consume no credits. When the balance runs out, calls stop until the billing cycle renews or the balance is replenished.
Which AI clients can connect?
Use an MCP client that supports Streamable HTTP. The connection section provides client-specific settings. Clients with OAuth can sign in to HasData, while unattended agents can use the x-api-key header.
