Search Facebook Marketplace listings by keyword and location, resolve places, and fetch item details. Every endpoint is a single authenticated GET request that responds with predictable JSON, so the data drops straight into dashboards, AI pipelines, RAG systems, and no-code automations. AI agents can call the same endpoints as MCP tools via @captapi/mcp.

Frequently asked questions
What is the Facebook Marketplace API?+
The Facebook Marketplace API is a REST API from Captapi that returns public Facebook Marketplace data as clean, structured JSON. It covers 3 endpoints — Marketplace Search, Location Resolve, Marketplace Item — behind one Bearer API key, with no OAuth flow and no infrastructure to build or maintain.
What data can I get from the Facebook Marketplace API?+
Search Facebook Marketplace listings by keyword and location, resolve places, and fetch item details. Each endpoint is a single GET request that responds with predictable JSON fields, so the data is ready for dashboards, AI pipelines, and automations.
Do I need a Facebook Marketplace developer account or OAuth?+
No. You only need a Captapi key (capt_live_...), sent as an Authorization: Bearer header. The same key works across all 32 platforms Captapi supports. We handle proxies, rate limits, retries, and parsing for you.
How much does the Facebook Marketplace API cost?+
Facebook Marketplace endpoints cost between 2 and 2 credits per call, depending on the endpoint. New accounts start with 100 free credits (no credit card). Pass cache=true to serve from the 24h cache (0 credits on hit); default is always fresh. Hits include cached + cachedAt. Selected profile endpoints also accept cacheMaxAge=1d|3d|7d|14d|30d.
Can AI agents use the Facebook Marketplace API?+
Yes. Every Facebook Marketplace endpoint is exposed as a tool in the official MCP server (@captapi/mcp) for Claude, Cursor, and VS Code, and is also available through the @captapi/cli CLI, an n8n community node, a Make.com app, and an Apify Actor.
Is the Facebook Marketplace API suitable for production use?+
Yes. It is a stable REST API with predictable JSON, automatic retries, and upstream fallbacks. Pass cache=true to serve from the 24h cache (0 credits on hit); default is always fresh. Hits include cached + cachedAt. Selected profile endpoints also accept cacheMaxAge=1d|3d|7d|14d|30d. Only successful responses consume credits — failed or empty results are never charged.
