Facebook Page Lookup API

Look up Facebook Pages and profiles by name with Facebook's own quick search. A name lookup that returns basic identity fields only: name, URL, profile image, Facebook id, and verified status. Matches can include personal profiles as well as Pages. For full Page details (category, followers, phone, website), use facebook.search_pages.

Request

curl -X POST "https://api.sandbase.ai/v1/run" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SANDBASE_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"model": "facebook/page-lookup", "limit": 5, "query": "NASA"}'

The result is returned in outputs[0].data. A lookup that finds nothing still succeeds and returns found: false.

Pricing

Billed at the actual cost of each call, usually $0.00975 per request. A call can cost more when the first data source fails and another one answers. Failed calls are not charged. Lookups that find nothing and searches with no results are billed at their actual cost, which is often lower and can be $0.
