Scrape Creators API / Marketplace Search

ScrapeCreators tool scrapecreators-facebook-marketplace-search on looot: input fields, $0.00188 per call, output shape, and code to run it with curl, JavaScript or Python.

Searches Facebook Marketplace listings by keyword and lat/lng. Pass category_id to restrict results to the numeric Facebook Marketplace category ID returned on listing results. Supports pagination with the returned cursor. Pass the cursor value back as-is. When sort_by is creation_time_descend, Facebook can still return slightly different ordering between identical requests. For alerting/new-item workflows, scrape multiple pages and dedupe by listing id instead of relying on page 1 item order being identical every run.

Inputs

Output

Shape of the run’s result, the expected shape, not yet checked against real answers:

{ success, listings: { id, url, price: { amount, formatted_amount, amount_with_offset_in_currency }, title, is_live, is_sold, mileage, location: { city, state, city_page_id, display_name }, is_hidden, story_key, is_pending, story_type, category_id, creation_time, primary_photo: { id, url }, delivery_types: string[], custom_subtitles: unknown[], is_viewer_seller, listing_date_text, strikethrough_price: { amount, formatted_amount } }[], has_next_page, credits_charged, credits_remaining }

Run it

Every call needs your API token in LOOOT_TOKEN; Sign in shows how to get one. Each run also needs a new idempotency key, so a retry never pays twice. With wait: 30 the answer comes back inline when the run ends within 30 seconds. Otherwise you get the running run back: poll GET /v1/runs/<runId>.

Example input with placeholder values:

curl -X POST "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOOOT_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -d '{"endpointId":"scrapecreators-facebook-marketplace-search","input":{"query":"<query>","lat":1,"lng":1},"wait":30}'

const response = await fetch("https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.LOOOT_TOKEN}`,
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
    "Idempotency-Key": crypto.randomUUID(),
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    endpointId: "scrapecreators-facebook-marketplace-search",
    input: {
      query: "<query>",
      lat: 1,
      lng: 1,
    },
    wait: 30,
  }),
});
const run = await response.json();
console.log(run.status, run.result);
