What is the Facebook event API?
GET /v1/facebook/event/details returns the full details for one Facebook event. Anchor the call with the event id or its url and you get the date, venue, description, ticket info, and going count as JSON. It costs 1 credit.
Do I pass an id or a url?
Either one. The endpoint accepts id or url and you supply exactly one. Pass id if you captured it from an events list or search; pass url if you only have the event's shared link.
What fields come back for an event?
You get the event name, description, start and end date, venue and location, host, cover image, ticket or registration info, and attendance counts like interested and going. Fields follow the shared SocialCrawl schema.
How does this pair with the events list?
Use /v1/facebook/events or /v1/facebook/events/search to discover events, then call event/details with each id for the deep fields the list view leaves out. It is the standard two-step for event data pipelines.
How much does it cost?
Each event detail lookup is 1 credit on the standard tier. New accounts get 100 free credits with no card, so you can inspect the full response shape before you build.
