Hello all,

I downloaded the command nba2stata to get data from this website to STATA. However when I was running the following command I got the following error:

nba2stata playerstats _all, season(2017) seasontype(reg) stat(season) clear

Can anyone explain why. And also what is the best way to scrape Facebook data into STATA. I tried but it is saying API access deactivated.

Any help is appreciated.
