- Billed: Per record
- Free to start: $0.10
- Endpoint: POST /v1/facebook

## What people build with the Facebook Marketplace API

- **Price research.** See what used items actually sell for in a city before you price your own.
- **Deal alerts.** Watch a category or a search and flag new listings under a price.
- **Resale market data.** Track supply and prices of a product across Marketplace over time.

## Quote it, then run it

1. free quote: the exact price, nothing charged:

```bash
curl -X POST https://apiforagents.dev/v1/facebook \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $AFA_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"op":"marketplace","subject":"https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/nyc/bicycles","limit":20,"estimateOnly":true}'
```

2. the same call, run:

```bash
curl -X POST https://apiforagents.dev/v1/facebook \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $AFA_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"op":"marketplace","subject":"https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/nyc/bicycles","limit":20}'
```

## Inputs

Everything you can send in one marketplace call. Required inputs first.

| Input | Type | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| subject * | string | A Marketplace category or search URL. ≤400 chars |
| limit | integer | 1-100 |

## What comes back

The fields of every row, always present. Nothing is guessed: a value that could not be measured is null, and the answer's coverage says why.

| Field | Type |
|---|---|
| listingId | string |
| listingUrl | string |
| listingTitle | string |
| description | string |
| price | string |
| priceValue | number |
| originalPrice | string |
| currency | string |
| condition | string |
| location | string |
| city | string |
| state | string |
| country | string |
| postalCode | string |
| latitude | number |
| longitude | number |
| listedAt | string |
| primaryPhoto | string |
| photos | any |
| videoUrl | string |
| attributes | any |
| deliveryOptions | list of string |
| mileage | string |
| details | object |

details is always the last field: everything else the source sent for that row, under our own field names. Its keys depend on the source that answered, so read them defensively; it is {} when there is nothing more.

## A sample answer

Made-up names and values in the real field names, so you can see the shape before you spend anything.

| listingTitle | price | priceValue | currency | condition | city |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Road bike, 54 cm, barely used | $420 | 420 | USD | Used - like new | Austin |
| Gravel bike, 56 cm | $650 | 650 | USD | Used - good | Austin |
| Kids bike with training wheels | $60 | 60 | USD | Used - fair | Round Rock |

## Pricing

Pay as you go, in US dollars, per record. No subscription, nothing expires, $5 first top-up, and every new agent starts with $0.10 free.

| Request | Records | At the list price |
|---|---|---|
| One listing | 1 | $0.009 |
| 10 listings | 10 | $0.09 |
| A full page | 100 | $0.9 |

These are per-record list prices. Some calls also carry a minimum, such as a page of search results, so a small request can cost more than the table shows. The quote ("estimateOnly": true) is free, gives the most your exact request can cost, and the charge then settles to what came back. Records that do not come back are refunded.

## Try it without writing code

- [Open the Facebook Marketplace API in the playground](https://apiforagents.dev/dashboard/run?platform=facebook&op=marketplace): The playground runs any endpoint by hand: pick a platform and what you want from it, fill a short form named in plain words (or press Use sample input), see the free quote on the Run button, run it, then read the answer as a table or JSON and download it as CSV or JSON. The same call is written out as cURL, Python and Node while you type.

## Why this one, and not a scraper you run yourself

- No login, no Facebook account, no cookies, no proxies, no browser to babysit.
- When the site changes its pages, your request stays the same: keeping the reads working is our job, not yours.
- A fetch that fails costs nothing: it is named in the answer with a reason, and the quote says the most a call can cost before it runs.

## Questions

### What does the Facebook Marketplace API return?

One row per listing: title, price text, price value, currency, condition, city, state, country, listed date, listing id, listing URL and video URL.

### What do I pass in?

One Marketplace category or search URL in subject, and a limit from 1 to 100.

### How much does it cost?

$0.009 per listing at the list price. A small call can carry a minimum, so quote first with "estimateOnly": true, which is free and is the most the call can cost. You pay for what comes back.

## Why API for Agents

- One key for 26 platforms: social, commerce, jobs, places, search and contacts, with one request shape and one response shape.
- A free quote before any spend: add "estimateOnly": true to any call and see the most it can cost.
- Pay per record in US dollars. No subscription, nothing expires, top-ups from $5.
- $0.10 free to try, no card. An AI agent can sign itself up in one request; a person claims it later.
- Measured, not estimated: every answer says when each row was measured, whether it was fresh or a recent capture, and how sure to be of each field.
- Partial success is success: anything that could not be fetched is named with a reason, and the charge settles to what came back, never above the quote.
- Typed fields that keep their names whichever source answered, and a details object last with everything else the source sent, under our own field names.
- Try any endpoint in the playground and download the answer as CSV or JSON.
