The Network is Empty – error message

[anichol]

Hello,

I am trying to download data from a closed Facebook group, but that I am a member of. When I input the Group ID and the parameters that I am looking for the importer returns the error message: “The Network is Empty” although I know that is not the case. I made sure to try both options, “Get posts: 1 to 100” and a date range that I know contains posts, but both only return the same error message. I used to have no problems downloading data from private groups, but I have been away from NodeXL for a few years, is this no longer possible, or what am I doing wrong? Thanks very much.

Hello!

Thank you for the interest in NodeXL!

Facebook does not provide data about closed groups (even to group members) via the API.

As a result, NodeXL cannot access closed Facebook groups.

Regards,

Marc
