How health is measured
- Health = the share of calls that returned data, in percent. Empty results, failures and unknown outcomes do not count as returning data.
- Levels: 90% and above is healthy, 70% and above is available, 40% and above is limited; anything lower is mostly down.
- A period (the last 24 hours, one hour or one day) gets a score only once it has at least 50 calls. Periods with fewer calls show as normal: a few failures among a handful of calls do not mean the API is down.
- Calls include real customer calls and our own daily probe calls. Request errors (wrong parameters, no balance) are excluded.
- Average time counts only calls that completed normally: response time for sync calls, acceptance to completion for async ones.

Use the ads action on Facebook. Accepts these parameters: country, status, and keyword. Returns these fields: started_at, title, ended_at, and advertiser_id.
Price $1.39 per 1,000 requests ($0.001389 per call). Failed calls and empty results are not charged. Synchronous. For slow jobs add "mode": "async" to the body, take the job_id and poll.
Request parameters
| Name | In | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Authorization | header | string | Yes | - | Bearer followed by your API key. Create it in the console; never put it in a URL or a code repository. |
platform | body | string | Yes | facebook | Platform identifier, fixed value. |
action | body | string | Yes | ads | Capability identifier, fixed value. |
keyword | body.params | Not declared | Yes | - | Specifies the search query for distinct platform endpoints. For search, it searches public posts; for ads, it accepts ad keywords or direct Ad Library and Page URLs; for marketplace, it accepts item search terms or complete Marketplace search URLs. Each action queries a different dataset rather than returning the same results under different field names. |
country | body.params | Not declared | No | - | Specifies the country code for keyword queries in the ads action, such as US (defaults to US). Values are converted to uppercase when constructing request URLs. If keyword is provided as a complete URL, the parameters embedded in that URL take precedence and this country setting is not applied. |
status | body.params | Not declared | No | - | Filters ad page status with allowed values: all (default), active (currently running), or inactive (stopped). This represents ad delivery status rather than ad review status. When passing an Ad Library keyword URL, the embedded active_status condition operates on a separate input path and is not guaranteed to filter identically to this parameter. |
limit | body.params | integer (1–200) | No | 20 |

Response example

}Response fields
Business data is in results. The table lists the fields a record can contain; values the source does not provide are never made up.
| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|

url | Link to the record on the source platform. |
text | Body text with HTML removed. Long text may be truncated. |
title | Title. null when the platform has no titles (for example text-only posts). |
cta_text | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
link_url | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
is_active | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
started_at | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
ended_at | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
platforms | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
variant_count | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
advertiser_id | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
advertiser_name | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
advertiser_url | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
advertiser_likes | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
image_url | Image link. Capabilities with several images may return an image_urls array. |
platform | Source platform identifier, the same as platform in the request (for example xiaohongshu, tiktok). |
Errors and billing
- 401
- Missing or invalid key. Authentication runs before parameter checks, so unauthenticated requests never see the parameter schema.
- 422
- Wrong parameter name or value. The error lists the parameters and allowed values this capability accepts and the closest match; it happens before any charge.
- 402
- Insufficient balance. Top up first.
- 429
- Per-minute request limit reached. Wait for Retry-After and try again.
- 503
- Could not complete right now. Any charge for the call goes back to your balance automatically, and the billing receipt in the response states the actual outcome, including when it is not yet known. Do not resend blindly.
- 200 empty
- The request completed without data and is not charged (billing.reason = empty_result_refunded).
Official references
Used only to check objects and terms. They do not imply authorization or endorsement of EveryInfra by the platform.
- Meta Official: Ads and Page Search Objects in the Ad Library ↗
Historical Meta announcements introduce searching ads by keyword or Page and highlight transparency data differences between general active ads and political or issue ads, along with official API requirements; this does not imply that all ads include spend, impressions, or complete history, as this endpoint does not offer those stable fields.
