Separation of organic and paid impressions in facebook api using R

Question

I use the Rfacebook package to get the final impressions that facebookpost had. This works great, but this method does not share paid and organic experiences. I am using the following code:

getInsights(object_id="post_id", token= token, metric='post_impressions') 

Does anyone know how I can distinguish between organic and paid impressions / reach?

Answer 1

See the Facebook Insights API section in Impressions Page .

You should be able to pass values ​​for metric as

• 'post_impressions_paid'
• 'post_impressions_fan_paid'
• 'post_impressions_organic'
• 'post_impressions_viral'
• 'post_impressions_nonviral'
• etc...

to obtain the necessary measures.

metric can also be a character vector that allows you to extract a lot at once.
