Facebook Global Search API

Provide query for documented global content discovery, with optional cursor, location_uid, recent_posts, start_date and end_date. No global-search response was sampled; result categories, envelope, field layout and optional-filter behavior are unverified. Use the response as an exploratory candidate source, then validate content-specific routes for records you select. Date formats must be checked rather than assumed. This is not a comprehensive platform-wide mention index or a guarantee of private-content access.

API Features

Cross-content discovery intent The documented global route provides an exploratory alternative to a content-specific search.

Optional global recency control recent_posts is exposed as a boolean input without an untested freshness guarantee.

Location and date context inputs location_uid and date bounds are available, with formats and effects still to be checked.

Candidate-first research design Validate returned content types before routing selected references into detail reads.

Frequently asked questions

Which content types does global search return?

There is no representative sample confirming this. Inspect the actual categories and structure rather than assuming a fixed mix of results.

Can I parse it directly using the post-search structure?

Do not assume so. Identify the actual content types first, then validate the corresponding fields and detail endpoints.

Is global search a complete platform-wide index?

No. It is an entry point for public-content discovery and does not guarantee all mentions, complete history or non-public content.
