Facebook Marketplace Item API
Marketplace listing — title, priceAmount, status, seller{}, condition, coords (2 credits).
GET request to /v1/facebook/marketplace-item that responds with clean JSON and costs 2 credits. Pass cache=true for a free 24h cache hit; default is always fresh. Start with 100 free credits — no credit card.What is the Facebook Marketplace Item API?
Paste a Facebook Marketplace item URL and get the listing as clean JSON aligned with search rows: title, price + priceAmount (minor units), currency, categoryId, location{name,city,state,countryCode,latitude,longitude} (same object shape as Event endpoints), cityPageId, status (available|pending|sold) with isSold/isPending/isHidden, deliveryTypes, image + photos[], createdAt, plus detail-only description, condition, and seller{id,name,url,joinedAt,rating} when Facebook's public page exposes marketplace_listing_seller. Flat city/state/latitude/longitude kept one release. Decodo fetch budgets ~50s — timeouts return HTTP 504 UPSTREAM_TIMEOUT with timings (not a mislabelled 404). Flat 2 credits. Session-only isViewerSeller is never returned.
What you get
- Same core fields as search rows (incl. priceAmount, city/state)
- status enum — not livestream isLive
- seller{} when Facebook exposes it
- description, condition, lat/lng, full photos[]
