## Parameters

| name | type | required | default | description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| url | not declared | yes | not declared | Specifies the target URL corresponding to the requested action. Use public Page URLs for profile and user_posts, post URLs for post and comments, group page URLs or group identifiers for group_posts, and business page URLs for reviews (which appends /reviews). Arbitrary Facebook URLs cannot be interchanged across actions. |

## Response fields (items in `results`)

| field | meaning |
|---|---|
| id | The record's unique ID on the platform. Unique only within one platform; IDs can repeat across platforms. |
| name | Name of the object itself, for account, product and business capabilities. |
| url | Link to the record on the platform. |
| bio | Profile bio written by the account; may contain line breaks and emoji. |
| category | Category name in the platform's own taxonomy, not normalized across platforms. |
| like_count | Likes. null means the platform or this capability does not disclose it; it is not 0. |
| follower_count | Followers. null means not disclosed, not 0. |
| is_verified | Whether the platform verified the account. null means it cannot be determined. |
| phone | Contact phone number, passed through without format normalization. |
| email | Contact email address, passed through as is. |
| website | External website entered by the account or business. |
| rating | Rating. **The scale varies by platform**: rating_scale on the same row gives the maximum (usually 5; Booking, Douban, iQIYI and NAVER use 10). Convert with rating_scale before comparing across platforms, or the comparison can come out backwards. |
| rating_scale | Maximum of rating in the same row: 5 for five-star scales, 10 for ten-point scales. Present only when the row has a rating. |
| avatar_url | Avatar image link. Some platforms return sized CDN links that can expire. |
| platform | Source platform identifier, the same as platform in the request (for example xiaohongshu, tiktok). |
