 💡 Looking for the legacy browser? Switch to the legacy version of this article. 

To capture a list of Facebook posts, use the Capture a list of posts (URLs) feature in the Page Vault Browser or our Batch Social Media tool.

Steps to Capture Facebook Posts:

Option 1: Capture a List of Post URLs in the Page Vault Browser

  1. Open the Page Vault Browser and navigate to Facebook. Sign in to Facebook to access all available content.
  2. Open any one of the Facebook posts you'd like to capture — this will be your starting URL.
  3. Click Capture Page in the sidebar to open the Capture panel.
  4. The Capture type is automatically set to Facebook post capture 
  5. Click the + next to Bulk capture additional posts.
  6. Paste your remaining Facebook post URLs into the text box.
    • Each URL must be on its own line.
    • Enter between 1 and 250 URLs per job.
    • Posts can come from more than one profile.
  7. Confirm to add the URLs to your job.
  8. Toggle on Capture Embedded Videos if you'd like the MP4 file of any videos in the posts saved alongside the PDF captures.
  9. Select the folder where you'd like to save your captures, then add a case matter ID, or Notes if needed.
  10. Click Capture!

The Page Vault Browser will load each post one at a time, expand all comments and replies, and create an individual PDF for each post. Any embedded videos will be saved as MP4s in the same folder.

Option 2: Use Bulk Capture in the Batch Social Media Tool

If you already have the Batch add-on, you can capture a list of Facebook posts directly through the Batch Social Media tool in your Portal.

  1. Log in to your Portal at portal.page-vault.com.

  2. Click the Batch button and select Social Media.

  3. Choose Bulk Capture Posts and paste in your list of Facebook post URLs (up to 250 per job).

  4. Authenticate your login: Authenticate using the Page Vault Chrome Extension (you must be signed into Facebook in your native browser), or by pasting your Facebook  cookies into the Advanced Mode

  5. Select your folder, name the job, and add an optional Case Matter ID.

  6. Start the batch job. Each post will be captured and saved as its own PDF.
