Social Media Example

In this example, we’ll retrieve a product from Facebook Marketplace, returning results based on the defined schema.

Follow the steps below to use our Facebook Marketplace API to extract a product:

You can define the category based on your preferences.

  1. Use the request body below:
curl --request POST \
  --url https://app.mrscraper.com/api/scrapers/fb-marketplace/create-and-run \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer <token>' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{
  "name": "Test Latest",
  "urls": [
    "https://www.facebook.com/marketplace"
  ],
  "webhook_url": "https://vnctkevin.com",
  "zip_codes": "80004",
  "categories": [
    {
      "name": "Air Conditioners",
      "url": "https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/category/air-conditioners/"
    }
  ]
}'
  1. Replace Authorization with your API token and Set the URL to Facebook marketplace and the category URL to your preferences.
  2. The above request body will return the following JSON response:
