The EU Clinical Trials EMA CTIS Scraper turns the public euclinicaltrials.eu data surface into a clean, structured dataset ready for analytics, BI, and downstream automation. It calls the public endpoints, normalizes the response, and flattens each record into one row.

This actor is read-only and uses only publicly available data. No login is required.

🎯 Target Audience	💡 Primary Use Cases
📊 Analysts	Build datasets for analytics and reports
🏢 Operations teams	Pipe records into BI dashboards
🎓 Researchers	Mirror data into local analysis tools
🤖 ML engineers	Generate training sets without writing client code
📰 Journalists	Verify facts quickly with structured output
👩‍💻 Developers	Skip the boilerplate of building a custom client

📋 What the EU Clinical Trials EMA CTIS Scraper does

• Calls the public euclinicaltrials.eu endpoints with the filters you supply.
• Parses the response and flattens each record into a flat row.
• Cleans verbose source keys into stable snake or camelCase names.
• Surfaces upstream errors as a single-row error record instead of crashing.
• Exports tabular output in every format the Apify dataset supports.

💡 Why it matters: euclinicaltrials.eu exposes valuable public data, but pulling it into a spreadsheet or warehouse usually means writing client code, managing pagination, and parsing nested responses. This actor wraps all of that.
