Description: Facilitates querying data from the ‘Facebook Marketing
        API', particularly for social science research
        <https://developers.facebook.com/docs/marketing-apis/>. Data
        from the 'Facebook Marketing API' has been used for a variety
        of social science applications, such as for poverty estimation
        (Marty and Duhaut (2024) <doi:10.1038/s41598-023-49564-6>),
        disease surveillance (Araujo et al. (2017)
        <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1705.04045>), and measuring migration
        (Alexander, Polimis, and Zagheni (2020)
        <doi:10.1007/s11113-020-09599-3>). The package facilitates
        querying the number of Facebook daily/monthly active users for
        multiple location types (e.g., from around a specific
        coordinate to an administrative region) and for a number of
        attribute types (e.g., interests, behaviors, education level,
        etc). The package supports making complex queries within one
        API call and making multiple API calls across different
        locations and/or parameters.
