Facebook ID Finder
Extract numeric Facebook IDs from profile links instantly
How to Find Your Facebook ID
Method 1: Direct URL
If your Facebook profile URL contains "profile.php?id=", the numeric ID appears directly in the URL. Simply paste the URL above.
Method 2: Custom Username
If you have a custom username (like facebook.com/yourname), you can find your ID by:
- Visit your Facebook profile
- Right-click and select "View Page Source"
- Press Ctrl+F (or Cmd+F on Mac) and search for "\"id\":\""
- Look for your numeric ID in the search results
Method 3: Using Browser Tools
Open your profile, press F12 to open Developer Tools, go to the Network tab, and look for API requests containing your numeric ID.
What Is a Facebook ID and Why Extract It?
Every Facebook profile and page has a unique numeric Facebook ID behind its custom URL (facebook.com/yourname). That numeric ID is what developers need for the Graph API, ad targeting by Custom Audience, chatbot integrations, and other tools that don't understand vanity usernames — only the underlying ID.
Paste a profile or page URL and this tool extracts the numeric ID for you, without needing Graph API access yourself.

How to Find a Facebook ID
- Copy the profile or page URL from Facebook — either the vanity URL (facebook.com/name) or the numeric one.
- Paste it into the input field and let the tool parse the ID.
- Use the extracted ID in the Graph API, ad platform, or integration that requires it.
Where a Facebook ID Is Actually Used
1. Graph API development
Building an integration against Facebook's Graph API almost always requires the numeric ID rather than a vanity username, which can change.
2. Messenger and chatbot integrations
Third-party chatbot and automation platforms typically need the page ID to connect to a Facebook Page's Messenger inbox.
3. Ad platform targeting and reporting tools
Some ad management and reporting tools require the numeric page ID for setup rather than the page's display name or URL.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Does this work for both personal profiles and Pages?
A: Yes — paste either a profile URL or a Page URL and the tool extracts the corresponding numeric ID.
Q: Does this access any private Facebook data?
A: No — it only parses the ID that's already present in the public URL or page source; it doesn't log in, authenticate, or access anything private.
Q: Why does a profile URL sometimes not show a numeric ID directly?
A: Facebook shows a custom "vanity" username in the URL for most active profiles/pages — the numeric ID still exists underneath and is what this tool resolves.
