Honest limits
- A search that matches nothing returns a
found: falserow (free). A source that fails returnsfound: nullwith anerror- that does not mean there is no recall. - CPSC has no dataset timestamp: its
dataAsOfis the retrieval time. FDAdataAsOfis openFDAmeta.last_updated. - openFDA allows 240 requests/minute and 1,000/day per IP without a key. The Actor waits 0.5 s between requests, backs off on HTTP 429 and stops at 300 requests per run.
- Email addresses and phone numbers are removed from text fields; street addresses of FDA firms are not returned.
- Not affiliated with CPSC or FDA. openFDA: "Do not rely on openFDA to make decisions regarding medical care." Always confirm on the official recall notice. Data credit: "Data provided by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (https://open.fda.gov)" and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
