Facebook Public Group Videos API - Community Video Discovery

Pass group_id for a publicly accessible group and optionally cursor to continue that video collection. The endpoint is documented but not sampled, so video fields, media formats and result envelope need validation. Verify group public visibility when content is unavailable. Use the returned material only for an appropriate permitted purpose; neither private-group access nor download and reuse rights are implied.

API Features

Public community video surface Separates a group video collection from its photos and ordinary post reads.

Group-video continuation input An optional cursor carries video collection context, not another group-content cursor.

No assumed video-file contract Playable file URLs, encodings and thumbnails are not guaranteed without a response sample.

Visibility does not confer reuse Even accessible community videos require appropriate rights for downstream use.

Frequently asked questions

Do group videos always return playable files?

This is not guaranteed. No representative sample has been obtained for this endpoint. Media fields and formats need actual validation.

Can a group ID unlock private videos?

No. This flow is limited to publicly accessible content. Knowing an identifier does not change visibility or authorization.

How can I avoid mixing video-pagination context?

Save cursor separately for each group and video collection. Do not reuse group-photo or group-post cursors.
