One call

Send the page URL and the recipe name to the Scrape API. The recipe brings the extract rules and the settings that work on Facebook (JavaScript rendering, a wait for the content and a mobile browser).

curl -G 'https://api.ujeebu.com/scrape' \
  -H "ApiKey: $UJEEBU_API_KEY" \
  --data-urlencode 'url=https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/nyc/search/?query=guitar' \
  --data-urlencode 'recipe=facebook/listing'

import os, requests

r = requests.get(
    "https://api.ujeebu.com/scrape",
    params={"url": "https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/nyc/search/?query=guitar", "recipe": "facebook/listing"},
    headers={"ApiKey": os.environ["UJEEBU_API_KEY"]},
    timeout=120,
)
print(r.json()["result"])

const params = new URLSearchParams({
  url: "https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/nyc/search/?query=guitar",
  recipe: "facebook/listing",
});
const res = await fetch(`https://api.ujeebu.com/scrape?${params}`, {
  headers: { ApiKey: process.env.UJEEBU_API_KEY },
});
console.log((await res.json()).result);

The answer is {"result": {...}} with the headers Ujb-Recipe and Ujb-Credits. Your own parameters always win over the recipe.

FAQ

What does the Facebook recipe return?

JSON with 5 fields from search results (recipe=facebook/listing), for example title, price, location, image, url. The answer is {"result": {...}} with the fields shown on this page.

How much does it cost to scrape Facebook?

5 credits a page ($0.50 per 1,000 on Pro, $0.82 on Starter). Same price as the page call, no fee for the recipe. Only successful responses are billed; blocked, timed-out and failed requests are free.

Do I need proxies or a headless browser?

No. The recipe brings the settings that work on Facebook: JavaScript rendering, a wait for the content and a mobile browser. Send only the URL and recipe=facebook/listing.

What happens when Facebook changes its pages?

We check Facebook every day and re-validate the recipe on real pages every week, then fix it when the site changes. Until a fix is live, the API answers 404 "the recipe has no working version" instead of empty data, and that call is free.

Can I search Facebook with parameters?

Yes. Fill in city, query, min_price, max_price: we build the Facebook search URL, and the call is that URL with recipe=facebook/listing. A single call with the parameters and no URL is coming to the API; it is not live yet.
