How it works

From a Facebook group to an archive you can search

Nothing to copy by hand and no account to create. The extension works on the group page you already have open.

1

Add it to Chrome

Install Group Exporter for Facebook from the Chrome Web Store and pin it to your toolbar. There's nothing to sign up for.

Open a group, click Download

Choose everything or only posts since a date. It runs in a background tab at a human pace, and you can pause anytime.

Search results in the Library, with matching words highlighted

Search, read and export

Every post and comment lands in your Library. Search it, open whole threads, and export to Excel, PDF or JSON.

Features

What you get from every group

Facebook shows a group one post at a time. Group Exporter for Facebook gives you all of it, in one place you can search.

A saved discussion with every comment and reply

Whole conversations

Each post comes with all its comments and nested replies, with names and dates, so you can read a thread from start to finish.

Insights: posts over time and group totals

Group insights

See when the group is most active, which posts got the most discussion and the words that come up most often.

Export page with HTML, CSV, JSON, JSONL and Markdown formats

An export for every use

CSV for Excel and Google Sheets, an HTML archive you can print to PDF, JSON for backups and JSONL for AI tools.

Two groups: one downloading with a Pause button, one up to date

Pause, resume, stay up to date

Big groups can take a few days. Progress is saved after every step, and Update fetches only what's new since last time.

What each export contains

Pro

Members and event guest lists, in one spreadsheet

For admins and organisers who need their own lists: who is in the group, and who is coming to the event.

Group members export

Every member of a group you're in, with profile link, join date, admin and moderator roles, and the details Facebook shows.

A group’s member list with join dates, roles and details, ready to download as CSV

Event guest lists

For the events you organise: everyone who is going, interested or invited, with their profile link. One file, ready for check-in or a follow-up email.

Exported events with their Going, Interested and Invited guest counts and CSV download

Facebook shows a full guest list only to the event's hosts, and a member list only to people in the group. The extension reads what your account can see; it never answers invitations or posts for you.

Made for people who learn from groups

Group admins

Keep a copy of years of answers before they get buried, or before the group disappears. Move them to a new platform if you need to.

Researchers

Collect discussions with exact dates and clean CSV files, ready for coding and analysis.

Founders and AI builders

Read the questions your customers really ask, or turn an expert group into a knowledge base for your assistant.

FAQ

Common questions

Something else? Read the guides or write to support@getsocialexport.com.

How do I download all posts from a Facebook group?

Install Group Exporter for Facebook from the Chrome Web Store, open the group on Facebook while logged in, click the extension icon and choose "Download this group". It saves every post, comment and reply automatically, newest to oldest. You can pause, close Chrome and resume later. It continues exactly where it stopped.

Can I export Facebook group posts and comments to Excel?

Yes. Export to CSV and open it in Excel, Google Sheets or Numbers: one file for posts (author, date, text, reactions, comment count, link) and one for comments and replies (with the post they belong to).

Does it work with private groups?

It works with any group you can see when you are logged in, including private groups you are a member of. It cannot access groups you are not a member of.

What's included in the free version?

The free version downloads up to 200 posts from one group, with all their comments and replies, and lets you search and export them to CSV, JSON and Markdown. It's the full product, so you can see exactly what you get before you buy.

Is it a subscription?

No. Group Exporter for Facebook Pro is a one-time payment of $24.90, paid securely with PayPal or a card. You get unlimited groups and posts, every export format and automatic daily updates, with free updates to the extension.

Is my data private?

Yes. Everything you download is stored only on your computer, inside the extension. We never see your posts, your groups or your Facebook account. The only thing our server sees is your license key, to confirm your purchase.

Your group's knowledge, saved for good
