Get Public Page Details
View all Facebook Public Data API endpoints →Pass a Facebook Page URL in url. The observed response has a results object with name, type, page_id, url, verified, followers, categories, image, cover_image, delegate_page.id and reels_page_id. Some optional contact and biography fields were null; do not assume they are populated. Use page_id for Page posts and retain the distinct delegate and Reels identifiers for their respective routes. A nonexistent URL returned results.type=private_page with no identity: this response cannot distinguish an absent Page from a private or inaccessible one and is not a reliable existence check. Follower counts are public observations, not private reach or Page Insights.

Use Cases
- Populate an organization directory from submitted Page URLs and returned public identities.

- Resolve the official Facebook Page before a bounded Page-post ingestion job.
- Route inconclusive Page URLs to human review instead of automatically declaring them nonexistent.
Frequently asked questions
How do I get page_id from a Page URL?
Enter the link in url and check the name, URL and page_id in results. Confirm that it is the intended Page before using the ID to query posts.
Does private_page prove that a Page is private?
No. An invalid URL also returned this type without identity information, so it cannot distinguish a nonexistent Page from a private or inaccessible one.
How does the public follower count differ from Page Insights?
followers is a snapshot of a visible count, not private reach, impressions or audience insights. This endpoint does not provide private dashboard metrics.
