Your Facebook Page lives at a friendly address like facebook.com/yourbrand, but many ad tools and API calls ask for a long number instead. Looking up that number one page at a time wastes an afternoon when you manage a dozen client Pages. Kwebby's Bulk Facebook ID Finder turns up to 10 usernames or URLs into numeric IDs in one request.
Use it for assets you run, advertise on or have a business reason to track, and for your own profile. This guide covers how it works, how to use it and how to keep the lookups on the right side of privacy.
Key Takeaways
- The Kwebby Bulk Facebook ID Finder converts up to 10 Facebook usernames or URLs into numeric IDs per request.
- You paste one username or URL per line and click Find IDs. The results list each page name with its ID, and a copy-all function exports them.
- Numeric IDs matter for Graph API calls, Facebook SDKs, ad tools, plugins and analytics integrations.
- The tool works best with public pages. Strict privacy settings can block ID extraction.
- Use it for your own Pages, client Pages and your own profile. Do not use it to compile lists of private individuals.
- Check each returned page name before you use an ID in a live campaign.
What Is the Kwebby Bulk Facebook ID Finder?
Kwebby's Bulk Facebook ID Finder is a free web tool that converts up to 10 Facebook usernames or URLs into numeric IDs in one request. Kwebby's server fetches each public page, extracts the numeric ID from the page source and lists the page name next to it. The tool does not save your list or the results. A copy-all function exports the full list.
It fits Pages you manage, Pages you advertise on and your own profile. It is not a people-search tool, and you should not point it at private individuals.
Key Features and How It Works
Up to 10 Lookups per Request
The input box reads "Facebook Usernames or URLs (one per line, max 10)". Commas between entries also work. If you have more than 10, run additional batches. The tool allows 5 batches per minute from one IP address, so wait a minute if it asks you to.
Usernames or Full URLs
Paste a vanity username or a full Facebook URL on each line. Use whichever form you already have in your notes.
IDs Taken From the Page Source
The tool fetches each page and reads the numeric ID from its source. That is why public pages work best: the information has to be visible to a visitor without special access.
Results With Names and Copy-All
Each result includes the page name, which lets you confirm you looked up the right Page. The copy-all function puts the whole list on your clipboard for a spreadsheet or script.
Why Numeric Facebook IDs Matter
A numeric ID is the identifier that Meta's systems use for a Page, and many integrations ask for it by number. The Kwebby page lists the common cases: Graph API calls that need numeric IDs instead of usernames, Facebook SDKs, marketing tools, app development, page plugins and like buttons, and analytics that cross-reference Facebook data.
Meta documents one official route for Pages you manage. Its Pages API getting started guide says to send a GET request to the /{user-id}/accounts endpoint, which returns each Page with its identifier. That route needs a valid user access token and several permissions, such as pages_show_list. A bulk lookup tool helps when you have a list of Page URLs and no developer setup at hand.
A Page ID is also not an Ad Account ID. Mixing the two is a common mistake that sends a campaign to the wrong place, so double-check which ID a form asks for.
How to Use the Bulk Facebook ID Finder
- Collect the Page usernames or URLs you need, such as
facebook.com/yourbrand. - Paste them into the "Facebook Usernames or URLs" box, one per line, with a maximum of 10.
- Click "Find IDs".
- Read the results. Each entry shows the page name and its numeric ID.
- Use the copy-all function to export the list.
- Paste the IDs into your ad tool, API script or spreadsheet.
If a line returns nothing, the page may be private or restricted. The "Report if not working" button on the page sends broken cases to the Kwebby team.
Best Practices for Finding Facebook IDs
Look Up Assets You Manage or Have a Business Reason to Track
Start with your own Pages and your clients' Pages. For other public business Pages, keep the purpose clear and documented, for example competitor monitoring for an ad plan. Respect Meta's terms and the privacy laws that apply to you.
Skip Private Individuals
An ID lookup on someone's personal profile does not give you permission to contact, profile or target that person. Use the profile route only for your own account or for a person who asked you to do it. Never build lists of private people.
Verify the Page Name Before You Launch
The results show a page name for a reason. Compare it with the Page you meant before the ID goes into a campaign or an integration.
Keep Batches Clean
Remove duplicates and typos from your list before you paste it. Keep batches at 10 or fewer, and record the date next to each ID in your sheet.
Store IDs With Their Labels
Save the vanity name, the numeric ID and the purpose in one row. Six months from now, your team will not have to guess what a bare number means.
Common Use Cases
- API integrations. Graph API calls need numeric IDs instead of usernames.
- Ad setup. Some advertising tools request numeric IDs, so you can reference the Pages you advertise through.
- Widgets and plugins. Facebook page plugins and like buttons may need the Page ID.
- Analytics. Cross-referencing Facebook data with third-party analytics tools often requires numeric IDs.
- Agency onboarding. Convert a list of new client Page URLs into IDs in a single sitting.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is a Facebook numeric ID?
A Facebook numeric ID is a unique number assigned to every Facebook Page and profile, even when it uses a custom vanity URL. Facebook uses it internally, and API calls, app integrations and some marketing tools need it.
How do I find a Facebook Page ID?
Paste the Page username or URL into the Bulk Facebook ID Finder and click Find IDs. The tool fetches the page and extracts the numeric ID from the page source. You can look up several Pages at once.
How many usernames can I look up at once?
You can look up up to 10 usernames or URLs per request. Enter one per line. If you have more, run additional batches.
Why might the tool fail to find an ID?
Some pages and profiles use strict privacy settings that prevent ID extraction. The tool works best with public pages. If a public page still fails, use the "Report if not working" button.
Can I look up the ID of any personal profile?
You should not. Use the tool for Pages you manage or track for business reasons and for your own profile. An ID does not give you permission to contact or target a private person, and compiling lists of individuals can break Meta's terms and privacy law.
Is the Bulk Facebook ID Finder free?
Yes. The page presents it as a free online tool, and you do not need to create an account. Paste your list and click Find IDs.
Final Thoughts
The Kwebby Bulk Facebook ID Finder replaces a slow, manual hunt for Page IDs with one paste of up to 10 usernames or URLs. Use it for the Pages you manage and your own profile, check each returned name before it reaches a campaign, and leave private individuals alone. Open the tool, paste your first batch and export the IDs to your sheet.
