About the Facebook Events search API

The AnyAPI Facebook Events search API returns Facebook events search data as normalized JSON from one POST call to /v1/run/facebook.events_search. Search public Facebook events by keyword and get structured event records (name, schedule, venue, pricing, and attendance) as normalized JSON. AnyAPI routes each request across 2 sources and falls back automatically when one fails. It costs from $1.20 per 1,000 requests, in US dollars with no subscription and no monthly minimum. Over the last 30 days, 100.0% of Facebook events search calls through AnyAPI succeeded, with a median response time of 4.1 seconds across 1,581 measured calls.

It costs from $1.20 per 1,000 requests, in US dollars with no subscription and no monthly minimum. You fund one USD wallet and each call draws it down. Some failed wallet-funded requests incur processing charges that we pass through at cost, with no markup; the error response shows the amount charged.
