Documented steps

  1. Get a Neynar API key and send it as the x-api-key header.
  2. GET https://api.neynar.com/v2/farcaster/user/bulk with query parameter fids=<fid1,fid2,...> (comma-separated FIDs, batched).
  3. Parse the response 'users' array: each entry includes username, displayName, fid, pfp, custodyAddress, and profile metadata.
  4. To get follower/following relationship context for a specific viewer, pass a viewer_fid so responses indicate follow status.
  5. For a single user you can use the singular user endpoint (GET /v2/farcaster/user?fid=) to get a top-level user object.
