Post › Transcript GET

Returns the spoken words of a Facebook video post as a transcript, using Facebook's auto-generated captions. Use it when you need what was said in a video; post returns the caption text and engagement but not the speech. **200 credits** per call. Re-running the exact same call within 6h is free.

Profile › Events GET

Returns a Facebook page's upcoming and past events, each with a title, link, the start time, the venue, the city, the rendered time line, and the cancelled, past and online flags. Use it for one page's own events; events covers a city. The start time sits on published_at and is often in the future. Optional include=details adds the description, hosts, cover and RSVP counts. **Metered: 20–180 credits.** We reserve the ceiling when the call starts and charge what it actually used when it finishes. Re-running the exact same call within 6h is free. Paginates by `cursor` — see [Pagination](/docs/pagination).
