Step-by-step: Search public Facebook posts by keyword

Query Parameters
Keyword or phrase to search for.
Cursor from the previous response.
Include videos on or after this date (YYYY-MM-DD).
Include videos on or before this date (YYYY-MM-DD).
When true, rank by recency instead of relevance.
Facebook location id to scope the search.
Only rows published on or after this date: YYYY-MM-DD (midnight UTC) or an ISO 8601 timestamp. Rows older than it are left off each page. This list is not in date order, so the walk does not stop at the date: keep following next_cursor, and each page costs what a page costs even when every row on it is filtered out. A row with no date is kept.
Only rows published on or before this date: YYYY-MM-DD (that whole UTC day is included) or an ISO 8601 timestamp. Newer rows are left off each page and the walk does not stop, so older pages follow. A row with no date is kept.
Set to 1 to get the price of this call without making it: data.dry_run carries credits_min and credits_max. Nothing is charged.
