Extract active notary public commission records from official US state government open-data portals. Covers five states — NY, TX, OR, CO, DE — sourcing data directly from Socrata open-data APIs published by each state's Secretary of State office.

What it does

The actor queries state government Socrata datasets and returns normalized notary commission records. No browser automation, no proxy required — all sources are open REST APIs.
