Is there a way to export the calendar in my group?

Is there a way to export the contents of a Facebook group?

  • I am one of the admins of a hyperactive Facebook group. However, Facebook groups are not great to search old posts. I was trying to find a way to export it to a different platform (blog, yammer, anything else) which can make the content more searchable.

  • Answer:

    No.

Work-around: For now, I have implemented a workaround by creating a dummy FB user for the group. I have set all group notifications on for this user, which makes sure that all posts are delivered to the gmail inbox of this user.. Next, I used a Wordpress plugin called Postie to allow me to post by email. This way all posts on the group are getting blogged on my wordpress blog.. This does not give me allow me to export previously posted content, but all new posts are being taken care of.. (You can actually export the previous content too, if you already have notifications set for the account that you want to use for blogging) I know that blogging by email is a native functionality that WP provides, but Postie is much more robust and versatile. Also, I made some code level changes to add functionality like adding tags to the post depending on the content. (I asked the group members to use Twitter type hashtags that are later added as blog tags)

I am not sure if terms and conditions of facebook allows that but if they than you can use Scrapy. You can make a utility to export any content added since last time you run the utility.
