Get comments from facebook ads (marketing)

_x000D_ You can't get comments nor reactions from Marketing Insights directly. I stand corrected. If you have access to an ad_account insights, then you can use Marketing API to get a post's comments directly. Thanks @lamxung55 Let's say you have and ad_id of 123000000 If you have a token with ads_management or ads_read permission, you can make a request to the Marketing API such as /123000000?fields=creative.fields(effective_object_story_id),insights.fields(actions) This will give you the effective_object_story_id which is the object_id of the post ({page_id}_{post_id}), and its insights including its actions broken down by action type. For example: { "creative": { "effective_object_story_id": "456000000_789000000", "id": "123000000" }, "insights": { "data": [ { "actions": [ { "action_type": "comment", "value": "12" }, { "action_type": "like", "value": "2" }, { "action_type": "post", "value": "3" }, { "action_type": "post_reaction", "value": "29" }, { "action_type": "video_view", "value": "558" }, { "action_type": "page_engagement", "value": "604" }, { "action_type": "post_engagement", "value": "602" } ], "date_start": "2017-08-14", "date_stop": "2017-08-20" } ], "paging": { "cursors": { "before": "xxx", "after": "xxx" } } } } The effective_object_story_id (so, post_id) is 456000000_789000000. You can then query the comments edge of the post adding summary=true as a parameter. This endpoint is public for common posts (however, it won't work for non public posts) /456000000_789000000/comments?summary=true Which will respond with an object like { "data": [ ], "paging": { }, "summary": { "order": "chronological", "total_count": 50, "can_comment": true } } This means the post has had 50 comments, of which 12 were made through a paid action.
