Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ### What does FCC Accredited Test Labs Directory do? **FCC Accredited Test Labs Directory** provides instant access to **591+ FCC, CE, and internationally accredited compliance testing laboratories** across **29 countries**. Whether you need EMC pre-compliance testing before submitting to an FCC-recognized lab, are searching for a partner to handle FCC Part 15 or CISPR 32 certification, or need a laboratory qualified for automotive, medical, IoT, or telecommunications standards — this Actor helps you find the right lab in seconds. Every lab record includes its **accreditation designation**, **location**, **test standards** supported, **industries served**, and a **direct link** to verify capabilities. You can filter by country, accreditation status, test standards, and industries, then download the results as JSON, CSV, Excel, or HTML for use in your compliance workflows, vendor evaluations, or RFP processes. Since this Actor runs on the **Apify platform**, you benefit from on-demand access, no infrastructure to manage, API integration with Zapier/Make/n8n for automated compliance workflows, and the ability to schedule regular exports to keep your vendor database up to date. ### Why use FCC Accredited Test Labs Directory? - **Vendor qualification** — Shortlist labs by geographic region, test standards, and industry expertise before sending RFQs. - **Compliance planning** — Find labs that support the exact standards you need (FCC Part 15, CISPR 32, EN 55032, IEC 62368-1, and 200+ more). - **Supply chain diversification** — Identify alternative labs in different regions to reduce single-location dependency. - **Market research** — Understand the competitive landscape of accredited testing laboratories worldwide. - **Equipment certification** — Locate the nearest qualified lab for your product's required testing regime. ### How to use FCC Accredited Test Labs Directory 1. Open the Actor and go to the **Input** tab. 2. Set your filters — pick countries, accreditation status, test standards, industries, or enter a free-text search query. If you leave everything blank, you'll get all **Active** laboratories worldwide. 3. Click **Start**. The Actor processes your filters and returns matching laboratories in seconds. 4. Switch to the **Output** tab to view the results in a sortable table. Download them in JSON, CSV, Excel, or HTML format. ### Input The Actor accepts the following input fields, all optional: | Field | Type | Description | |---|---|---| | **Countries** | Multi-select dropdown | Limit results to specific countries (29 options). | | **Accreditation Status** | Multi-select dropdown | Choose Active, Unknown, and/or Expired. **Defaults to Active** so you only see currently accredited labs. | | **Test Standards** | String array | Filter labs by standards they support. Matching is **case-insensitive substring** — enter "CISPR" to find labs that test any CISPR standard (CISPR 32, CISPR 25, CISPR 11, etc.). | | **Industries Served** | String array | Filter by industries (e.g., "automotive", "IoT", "medical", "consumer electronics"). Case-insensitive substring matching. | | **Search Query** | Free text | Search across lab name, city, and description. | | **Maximum Results** | Integer | Cap the number of results. Set to 0 for unlimited (default). | Example input with all filters set to demonstrate a focused search: ```json { "countries": ["United States", "Canada"], "accreditationStatus": ["Active"], "standards": ["FCC Part 15", "CISPR 32"], "industries": ["automotive"], "searchQuery": "Michigan", "maxResults": 50 } ```` ### Output The Actor outputs matching laboratories to the default dataset. Each result contains the full lab record: ```json { "name": "Example Compliance Lab", "designation": "US1234", "location_text": "Detroit, Michigan, United States", "country": "United States", "state_province": "Michigan", "city": "Detroit", "accreditation_status": "Active", "description": "Full-service EMC and wireless testing laboratory...", "facility": "EMC, RF/wireless, and product safety testing laboratory", "badges": ["Active Accreditation", "★4.5(23 reviews)"], "standards_tested": ["FCC Part 15", "CISPR 32", "CISPR 25"], "industries_served": ["Automotive", "Wireless and IoT", "Connected devices"] } ``` You can download the dataset in various formats such as JSON, HTML, CSV, or Excel. ### Data table The Output tab in Apify Console displays results in a table with these columns: | Column | Description | |---|---| | **Name** | Laboratory name | | **Location** | City, state/province, country | | **Designation** | FCC or international accreditation designation code | | **Status** | Accreditation status (Active, Unknown, Expired) | | **Standards** | List of test standards supported by the lab | | **Industries** | Industries the lab serves | ### Pricing / Cost estimation How much does it cost to use this Actor? This Actor processes a curated directory — it does not make external web requests or use proxies. A typical run completes in **under 10 seconds** and costs a **fraction of a compute unit**. On the Apify Free plan you get $5/month in platform credits, which covers hundreds of runs. For paid plans, the cost per run is negligible. ### Tips - **Leave filters empty** to export the entire database of Active labs for offline analysis. - Use **Test Standards** and **Industries Served** together to find specialized labs — for example, labs that test both MIL-STD-461 (military EMC) and serve the aerospace industry. - The **Search Query** field searches across lab name, city, and description simultaneously — great for finding labs in a specific city or with a particular capability. - For recurring exports, **schedule** the Actor to run daily or weekly and send results to your email or Google Sheets via Apify integrations. - Download results as **CSV** and import directly into Excel or Google Sheets for further filtering and analysis. ### FAQ, disclaimers, and support **Where does the data come from?** The Actor compiles laboratory records from publicly available accreditation databases, laboratory filings, and provider profiles to create a comprehensive, searchable directory. Data is refreshed periodically to reflect accreditation status changes. **How current is the accreditation data?** Lab records include their accreditation status (Active, Unknown, Expired). Always verify the current status directly with the laboratory before engaging their services, as accreditation statuses can change. **What if a lab I need isn't listed?** The directory covers 591+ labs but may not include every accredited facility. If you notice gaps, report them via the Issues tab on the Actor's page. **Is this legal to use?** Yes. The directory aggregates publicly available information about accredited testing laboratories. It does not scrape protected content or bypass access controls. **Need a custom solution?** If you need a tailored version of this Actor — custom filters, different output formats, integration with your internal systems, or additional data fields — contact the developer through the Issues tab or explore Apify's [custom Actor development](https://apify.com/custom-solutions). For bugs, feature requests, or feedback, use the **Issues** tab on this Actor's page. # Actor input Schema ## `countries` (type: `array`): Filter laboratories by country.
