How can I get comments from a Group using Facebook Webhook? I want to get the comments from a group instantly using webhook. My app is verified with publish_to_groups, groups_access_member_info permissions.

The object types you can subscribe to for getting updates, are listed under https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/webhooks/reference

As you can see, Group is not mentioned there. You can not currently subscribe for webhook updates from Groups.

  • Depending on how many groups you are monitoring, you can poll once per minute and stay under the API limit pretty easily. I poll my feed every minute for 16 hours per day and the Facebook status page shows me at about 25% utilization. If you're getting the comments as well, that will increase your API usage because you'll have to do a "feed" query every minute and then a "comments" query for every new post. – Morrious Sep 21 '22 at 14:49
