How to get the media url of a public post without access token?

How To
1

Hello,

I use watch for public as a trigger, then I handle the Media ID over to rapidapi, there I get the media URL. That works fine.

But it’s very expensive, there.

I tried to get the extended API access with graph API via facebook, but no luck.

So, is there any other way to get a media url, where I dont have an access token?

kind regards

That depends on how many you are fetching, which you didn’t mention. You can always try multiple RapidAPI accounts/connections to use the “free” tier (not that it’s the right way to do it), falling back (error handling) to another account when one runs out of quota.

Alternatively, just pay for the service (it also helps them stay sustainable and prevents the services from shutting down).
