Search for cities to be used for targeting when boosting an ad.

• Cities use Facebook’s key identifier and support radius targeting.

• Each city result includes its parent region as region (the region name) and regionId (the region’s numeric identifier), so you can target the city’s region when it is available.

• If a returned city has supportsRegion true, the region for this city is available for targeting. If supportsCity is true, this city is available for targeting.

• Some locations may be returned as subcity with additional hierarchy fields.

Header Parameters

Query Parameters

search · string

The search string to filter cities. Provide a partial or full city name.

limit · number · default: 25

Maximum number of cities to return.
