Cities

cities

Optional

City slugs to pull business licenses from. Live and wired: chicago, los-angeles, san-francisco, new-york, seattle. Any other slug produces an explicit unknown_city / not_wired row rather than being silently dropped. Leave empty to query all live cities.

Type:array

Default:

[
  "chicago",
  "los-angeles",
  "san-francisco",
  "new-york",
  "seattle"
]

New since date (YYYY-MM-DD)

since

Optional

Only return licenses issued/started after this date, per each city's issue-date column. MUST be YYYY-MM-DD (e.g. 2025-01-15) - any other format is rejected and the run fails without billing, rather than silently returning every licence in the city as a new lead. Leave empty for the most recent records overall.

Type:string

Business name contains

name

Optional

Optional. Case-insensitive fragment matched against each city's business-name column (e.g. 'salon', 'LLC', a specific company).

Type:string

License type / category contains

licenseType

Optional

Optional. Case-insensitive fragment matched against the per-city license-type column (e.g. 'restaurant', 'pawnbroker', 'peddler'). Skipped for cities that do not expose a type column.

Type:string

NAICS code prefix

naics

Optional

Optional. NAICS code prefix to filter by industry (e.g. '72' = accommodation & food services, '5419' = professional services). Applied only in cities that expose NAICS (Los Angeles, Seattle).

Type:string

New licences only (exclude renewals)

onlyNewLicenses

Optional

On by default, so the feed matches what this Actor is sold as. Chicago publishes an application type and 76.1% of its 1.2M records are RENEW - existing businesses renewing, not new ones. With this on, Chicago is filtered server-side to ISSUE and C_LOC (a genuine new site) so you are not billed for renewals at all. Cities that publish no new-vs-renewal signal are NEVER dropped by this - their rows come back tagged record_kind "unknown". Turn it off to get every record.

Type:boolean

Default:true

Currently-valid licences only

onlyActiveLicenses

Optional

On by default. Only 62.4% of the New York dataset is Active - the rest is Expired, Surrendered, Revoked, Voided, Suspended or explicitly Out of Business, and Chicago carries 78,619 cancelled plus 1,461 revoked licences. With this on those are excluded server-side. Cities that publish no status (LA, SF, Seattle) are NEVER dropped by this - their rows come back with is_active_license null. Turn it off to get every record.

Type:boolean

Default:true

Max results per city

maxResults

Optional

Maximum number of license records to return per city (the actor paginates to reach this).

Type:integer

Minimum:1

Maximum:50000

Default:1000

Socrata app token (optional)

socrataAppToken

Optional

Optional free Socrata app token to raise API rate limits for large pulls across many cities.
