What it does

The actor calls the official CPSC recall web service, applies the filters you pass as input, and writes one normalized record per recall to the run's dataset. Dates are normalized to YYYY-MM-DD, missing source values are returned as null, and nested source structures (products, hazards, injuries, remedies, manufacturers, importers, retailers, distributors, UPCs and images) are flattened into clean arrays so you can sort and filter without extra parsing.

Three optional AI add-ons are available on paid Apify plans and off by default: a plain-language aiSummary, an aiSeverity risk classification, and a structured aiExtract. Each is billed only when it produces output.

Data covers US Consumer Product Safety Commission recalls only. It does not include food, drug or vehicle recalls (see the openFDA Food Recall Scraper for food).

Quickstart

Open the actor, paste this into the input, and press Run. It returns 2 recent recalls whose title contains "fire", each enriched with all three AI add-ons.

{
  "recallTitle": "fire",
  "maxRecalls": 2,
  "withSummary": true,
  "withSeverity": true,
  "withExtract": true
}

Every input field is optional. With an empty input the actor returns the most recent recalls (default maxRecalls is 10) without any AI add-ons.

Input reference

Field	Type	Required	Default	Description
maxRecalls	integer	no	10	Maximum records to collect. The CPSC web service returns all matching recalls in one response, so narrow with date or keyword filters for large pulls.
recallDateStart	string	no	(empty)	Include recalls with a recall date on or after this date (YYYY-MM-DD), for example 2026-01-01.
recallDateEnd	string	no	(empty)	Include recalls with a recall date on or before this date (YYYY-MM-DD), for example 2026-06-30.
recallTitle	string	no	(empty)	Keyword matched against the recall title, for example fire, lithium, helmet, or a brand name.
productName	string	no	(empty)	Keyword matched against the recalled product name, for example vaporizer, stroller, heater.
withSummary	boolean	no	false	Paid AI add-on. Adds a plain-language aiSummary of each recall. Billed only when produced. Requires a paid Apify plan.
withSeverity	boolean	no	false	Paid AI add-on. Adds an aiSeverity class (low/medium/high/critical), a 0 to 100 aiRiskScore and a rationale. Billed only when produced. Requires a paid Apify plan.
withExtract	boolean	no	false	Paid AI add-on. Adds a structured aiExtract: hazard type, affected products, injury/incident counts, remedy, age range and retailers. Billed only when produced. Requires a paid Apify plan.

Filters combine with logical AND. If you pass no filters, the actor returns the most recent recalls.

Run via API and CLI

Start a run and wait for it to finish, then read the dataset. Replace <TOKEN> with your Apify API token.

Run synchronously and get dataset items in one call:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/scrapers_lat~cpsc-recalls-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=<TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"recallTitle":"fire","maxRecalls":25}'

Start a run asynchronously:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/scrapers_lat~cpsc-recalls-scraper/runs?token=<TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"productName":"stroller","recallDateStart":"2026-01-01","maxRecalls":100}'

Apify CLI:

apify call scrapers_lat/cpsc-recalls-scraper \
  --input '{"recallTitle":"lithium","maxRecalls":10}'

Fetch results

Every run writes to a dataset. Fetch items as JSON, CSV, or Excel by changing format:

# JSON
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<DATASET_ID>/items?token=<TOKEN>&clean=true&format=json"

# CSV
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<DATASET_ID>/items?token=<TOKEN>&clean=true&format=csv"

# Paginate large datasets
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<DATASET_ID>/items?token=<TOKEN>&offset=1000&limit=1000"

<DATASET_ID> is returned as defaultDatasetId in the run object. Use offset and limit to page through large result sets. clean=true drops empty and internal fields.

Billing and limits

• Pay per result. You are charged per recall record returned (result event). See the pricing tab for the current per-result price.
• Optional AI add-ons are billed as separate events only when they produce output: ai_summary, ai_severity and ai_extract. They are off by default and require a paid Apify plan.
• No charge on failure. If a run errors, the actor writes a single item with a populated error field and does not charge for it. Empty runs cost nothing.
• Spend cap respected. Set maxTotalChargeUsd on the run; once reached, the actor stops emitting and charging further billable results and add-ons.
• Free Apify plans are capped at 10 records per run and cannot use the AI add-ons. Upgrade for higher maxRecalls.

FAQ and troubleshooting

A run returned 0 records. Why? The filter combination matched nothing in the source. Loosen filters (for example remove productName or widen the date range). Zero-result runs are not charged.

Why are the ai* fields null? The AI add-ons are off by default. Enable withSummary, withSeverity or withExtract on a paid Apify plan. Free plans cannot use them.

What is the difference between recallTitle and productName? recallTitle matches the recall announcement title, while productName matches the specific recalled product name. Combine both to narrow further.

Why is a value null or an array empty? The CPSC record did not include that value. Missing source values are returned as null or [], never invented.

Is this an official CPSC tool? No. This actor is independent and has no affiliation with the CPSC. It reads only data that is publicly available through the CPSC recall web service. Use it in accordance with the CPSC terms of service.
