# Fetch UK energy certificates by certificate number

**Use case:** 

Looks up certificates directly by their 20 digit certificate number or full register URL, with no search step, and returns the complete parsed certificate. Use it to enrich an existing property dataset that already carries certificate references, or to refresh a portfolio's certificates on a schedule and catch the ones that have expired.

## Input

```json
{
  "postcodes": [],
  "streetSearches": [],
  "certificateUrls": [
    "0260-2870-6219-9191-6111",
    "https://find-energy-certificate.service.gov.uk/energy-certificate/8788-6022-5319-2795-6906"
  ],
  "register": "domestic",

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/automation_craft/uk-energy-certificate-scraper.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
