API Reference

Facebook Graph API v23.0

This MCP server is based on the official Facebook Graph API v23.0 Insights documentation. All metrics are sourced from the comprehensive reference document and include:

  • Complete metric definitions

  • Supported time periods

  • Data types and formats

  • Deprecation status

  • Usage notes and limitations

Rate Limits

  • MCP Server: No built-in rate limiting

  • Facebook API: 200 calls per hour per app (when used with actual API)

  • Search: Optimized with Fuse.js for fast local searches

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

  1. "No parameters" error: This is the most common issue. Follow these steps:

    # 1. Ensure proper installation npm install npm run build npm run refresh # 2. Test the server npm run test # 3. Use correct mcp.json configuration

    Correct mcp.json:

    { "mcpServers": { "facebook-insights-metrics-v23": { "command": "node", "args": ["/full/path/to/facebook-insights-metrics-v23/dist/server.js"] } } }

  2. No metrics found: Run npm run refresh to generate metrics.json

  3. Build errors: Ensure Node.js v22+ and run npm install

  4. Search not working: Check that metrics.json exists and is valid

Debug Mode

# Enable debug logging DEBUG=* npm run dev
