Content Analysis Filters API

Scrape Content Analysis Filters data with one API call. Returns the map of filterable fields → value types (str, num, time, array.num, array.str) accepted by the advanced `filters` param on search, summary, sentiment, rating-distribution, phrase-trends and category-trends. Use it to build valid filter expressions. Heavily cached.

Returns the fields you are allowed to filter on and the value type each one accepts.

Use it to build a valid filters expression before calling search, summary, or sentiment.

Content Analysis API

What can you do with the Filters API?

The Filters endpoint gives you structured Content Analysis data with computed fields in a single request. No scraping infrastructure to build or maintain.

Example Request

# GET /v1/content_analysis/filters: 1 credit per call. Cache hits are free and failed calls are refunded.
# Check the price first for 0 credits: add dry_run=1 to the query. Nothing is fetched or charged.
# --max-time 60: the API's own time limit for this endpoint.
# --retry 3: retries timeouts, 429 and 5xx, honoring Retry-After.
# -o response.json keeps only the final attempt's body.
# One Idempotency-Key per request, reused on every retry, so a retried call is never charged twice.

How do I find the filterable fields for content analysis?
Send a GET request to /v1/content_analysis/filters. You get the map of every filterable field and the value type each expects, so you can build the advanced filters expression that search and summary accept for precise brand mention queries.
What does the filters endpoint return?
It returns a field-to-type map: each filterable field paired with the kind of value it takes. Use it as the reference for constructing the filters parameter (a JSON array of conditions) when page_type alone is not specific enough.
How do I use the filters in a search?
Pass an advanced filters expression as a JSON array (up to eight conditions) to the search or summary endpoint. The filters endpoint tells you which fields are valid and what value types they expect, so your expression is accepted on the first try.
Is the filters map static or live?
It is static reference data, not a live mention query. The field map changes rarely, so SocialCrawl caches it and repeat calls are effectively free in practice. Fetch it once, build your filter expressions, and reuse them.
How much does the filters endpoint cost?
Filters is a standard-tier reference endpoint at 1 credit per call, versus 20 credits for the analytic endpoints. New accounts get 100 free credits with no credit card required, so you can pull the field map at no real cost.
