Frequently Asked Questions

What professions does this Florida license scraper cover? It covers every board in the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation license search, including contractors, real estate brokers and sales associates, cosmetologists, barbers, veterinarians, CPAs, architects, and alcohol and tobacco licenses. The profession is returned on every record.

How many results can I get for one search? A common last name like Smith returns more than 25,000 records, paginated 10 at a time. Use Max Items to control how many you collect, or set it high to pull the full result set.

Can I search by license number instead of name? Yes. Set Search Type to License number and enter the exact license number, for example CFC056678. You can also search by person name with a last name, or by business name.

What extra data does Fetch Full Details add? When enabled, the scraper opens each licensee detail page to add the Florida county, the doing business as name, the full street address, the original licensure date, the detail page status and expiration date, any alternate names, the related license relationship graph that links a qualifying agent to the business they qualify, and the discipline and complaint history for sanctioned licensees.

Can I see which business a qualifying agent is tied to? Yes. With Fetch Full Details enabled, the related licenses field returns the relationship graph linking a person to the business they qualify, with the related name, related license number, relationship type and effective date.

What happens when a field is missing for a licensee? Fields that the source does not provide for a given license are returned as null rather than guessed. For example expirationDate is null for licenses that never expire, and dbaName is null when no doing business as name is on file.
