Facebook

Search Facebook with one API call

Read Facebook — public Page posts and reactions — without building or maintaining a scraper. Maintained upstream. Same response shape as every other platform here, so one parser handles all of them. 3 credits a call.

The call

curl -H "x-api-key: $SS_KEY" \
  "https://api.socialsearchapi.com/v1/facebook/page-posts?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fnasa"

This call costs 3 credits once you are on credits. A new account gets 5 free calls on any platform — verify an email and this command runs as-is.

Why not just scrape it yourself

The Graph API only reads Pages you administer or that have granted your app access, and app review for anything broader is a multi-week process with an uncertain outcome. Reading a public Page you do not own has no first-party path.
