Court Reporters Board of California — License Directory
Search the Court Reporters Board of California (CRB) public license directory by name, license number, license type, license status, and county — the same filters available on the Board's own search tool.
What it does
- Builds the same search request the CRB's directory site sends when you use its search filters.
- Pages through all matching results (50 records per page).
- Saves one row per licensee to the dataset.
This is a JSON-API-based scraper (no browser), so it's fast and lightweight.
Input
All fields are optional — leave everything blank to fetch all licensees (not recommended without also setting a reasonable Max results).
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | Free-text name search. |
| License Number | Search by an exact or partial license number. |
| License Type | Court Reporter Firm (CRF), Temp - Certified Shorthand Reporter, or Certified Shorthand Reporter (CSR). |
| License Status | e.g. Active, Expired, Revoked, Delinquent, Suspended, Surrendered, Deceased, Cancelled, Pending Renewal. |
| County | California county of record. The list also includes a handful of non-California entries (e.g. "Out Of State", "Out Of Country") and some values that appear to be inherited from a shared facet list used across Board sites — if a county looks out of place for California, it's likely one of these. |
| Max results | Caps how many licensee records are fetched. Default 5 |
Dropdown values (license type, status, county) are taken directly from the values accepted by the Board's own search form.
Here is an example of what the actor input could be:
Output
One dataset row per licensee:
name, first_name, last_name, entity_name, license_number, original_license_date, license_effective_date, license_expiration_date, license_type, license_status_type, address, street_line1, street_line2, city, zip, public_email, county_name, secondary_statuses, certification_method
Here is an example of the structured data overview captured by the actor:
Example use cases
- Verifying whether a specific court reporter or firm holds an active license before engaging them.
- Building a directory of licensed court reporters in a specific California county.
- Monitoring license status changes (e.g. tracking suspensions or revocations) via periodic re-runs.
Known limitations
- This Actor depends on the structure of the CRB's public search API, which is not an officially documented/versioned API. If the Board changes its site, this Actor may need updating.
Cost
This is a lightweight HTTP-only Actor (no browser), so compute cost per run is low. Cost scales primarily with Max results.
