Facebook Events Search Scraper API

The Facebook Events Search endpoint is one API call: send a search query with your HProxy key and get back a clean, structured JSON object. Search Facebook events by keyword and get ranked results back with title, venue, start time and attendance counts. HProxy runs the proxies, sessions, anti-bot handling and parsing server-side, so there is no headless browser to babysit and no parser to keep fixing when Facebook changes its markup. You only ever touch the JSON. Longer result sets come back page by page with a cursor, so you can walk the whole set without holding it in memory.
  • 0.15¢ per call
  • $1.49 per 1,000
  • Takes a search query
  • Errors and timeouts are not charged

The call

One GET, and the events search comes back as JSON.

Your key goes in one header. 1 required parameter, and the answer is the object below it.

Facebook events search questions

Answered before you ask.

The reference

Send one authenticated HTTPS request to the Facebook Events Search endpoint with a search query and your HProxy API key. Search Facebook events by keyword and get ranked results back with title, venue, start time and attendance counts. No proxies, no headless browser and no parsing on your side. The response is ready-to-use JSON.

This endpoint is 0.15¢ per successful call, which is $1.49 per 1,000. It bills from your HProxy balance with no subscription and no monthly minimum. Errors are retried and never charged; a lookup whose target does not exist counts as a call.

No. Every call runs on HProxy's own residential network behind the scenes, so requests look like real users. The proxy layer is already included in the per-call price.

A structured JSON object with the full events search data Facebook exposes publicly. See the fields listed above. The schema is consistent across calls, so you integrate once and rely on it.

Yes. The response carries a cursor; pass it back on the next call to continue from where you stopped. Each page is one billable call, so you only pay for the depth you actually pull.

The API only accesses publicly available Facebook data, the same pages anyone can open in a browser. You are responsible for using the data in line with applicable laws and Facebook's terms for your use case.

Events elsewhere

The same data on 1 other platform.

One key, one JSON shape, one balance. Move sideways without learning a second API.

What the Facebook Events Search endpoint returns

Search Facebook events by keyword and get ranked results back with title, venue, start time and attendance counts. The JSON object carries events[], startTime / endTime, venue and attendance. Nothing is summarised away on our side, so what you read in the response is what the Facebook events search page itself holds.

What you send to the Facebook Events Search API

The call takes a search query. Required: query. Optional: cursor. Your key travels in the X-API-Key header, the response is JSON, and the call is billed at 0.15¢, $1.49 per 1,000.

Events on other platforms

The same events data is available on 1 other platform: Twitch User Schedule. They share this endpoint's JSON shape, its per-call billing and your one API key, so moving from Facebook to another network is a change of URL rather than a second integration.

Is scraping Facebook events search allowed?

The endpoint reads publicly available Facebook data, the same pages anyone can open in a browser without logging in. It does not touch private accounts or anything behind a password. How you then use the data is yours to keep lawful, under the rules that apply to you and to Facebook.

Ready when you are.
