How to Use

Take the following URL

https://www.facebook.com/search/top/?q=people&epa=FILTERS&filters=

Replace /search/top/ with the appropriate general search type (see headings below). One filter from each second-level header can be combined with each other, but I don’t believe you can combine multiple filters from the same second-level header.

Replace the word people with your keyword search term (this is sadly a required field). It does not seem to be “semantic”, and it only serves to add another filter to the below semantic filters.

Find any additional semantic filter(s) below (the JSON) that you want to filter on. Use this page for testing your JSON, but before submitting make sure you remove all whitespace from your JSON - you can set the “JSON Template” drop down to Compact in the formatter if you like, it will remove all whitespace for you. Note also that often there is JSON embedded within JSON. This is where you’ll see a backslash before a quote (\"). Make sure to leave those backslashes alone.

When you combine filters, put them together in the same JSON object. For example, if I take Posts From a Page

{"rp_author":"{\"name\":\"author\",\"args\":\"119375054750638\"}"}

and combine with Posts I’ve Interacted

{"interacted_posts":"{\"name\":\"interacted_posts\",\"args\":\"\"}"}

the combined filter should look like this:

{
    "rp_author":"{\"name\":\"author\",\"args\":\"119375054750638\"}",
    "interacted_posts":"{\"name\":\"interacted_posts\",\"args\":\"\"}"
}

and compact down to:

{"rp_author":"{\"name\":\"author\",\"args\":\"119375054750638\"}","interacted_posts":"{\"name\":\"interacted_posts\",\"args\":\"\"}"}

Next, find a Base64 encoder and paste the compacted JSON into it. Encode the JSON above and you see the following:

eyJycF9hdXRob3IiOiJ7XCJuYW1lXCI6XCJhdXRob3JcIixcImFyZ3NcIjpcIjExOTM3NTA1NDc1MDYzOFwifSIsImludGVyYWN0ZWRfcG9zdHMiOiJ7XCJuYW1lXCI6XCJpbnRlcmFjdGVkX3Bvc3RzXCIsXCJhcmdzXCI6XCJcIn0ifQ==

Remove any equals signs at the end (Facebook doesn’t need them) and then put the Base64’d JSON at the end of the URL you built above, after filters=

https://www.facebook.com/search/top/?q=people&epa=FILTERS&filters=eyJycF9hdXRob3IiOiJ7XCJuYW1lXCI6XCJhdXRob3JcIixcImFyZ3NcIjpcIjExOTM3NTA1NDc1MDYzOFwifSIsImludGVyYWN0ZWRfcG9zdHMiOiJ7XCJuYW1lXCI6XCJpbnRlcmFjdGVkX3Bvc3RzXCIsXCJhcmdzXCI6XCJcIn0ifQ

This one is different… I haven’t figured out how it works yet. The ref= parameter decodes into something with a session ID or something:

{"sid":"97e8f46cce641da376d91e4b2b1c2381","ref":"places_top_module_see_more"}
