The most complete FDA medical device establishment scraper available. It returns every field the openFDA device registration database exposes for each establishment, including the owner/operator, official correspondent and US agent contact details, plus the full list of registered products with codes, device class and regulation, and gives you name, product code, device, class, country and state filters to target exactly the establishments you need.

What it does

The actor calls the openFDA device registration and listing dataset, applies the filters you pass as input, paginates through the matching establishments, and writes one normalized record per establishment to the run's dataset. Each record carries the facility identity and address, the owner/operator firm, the official correspondent and US agent contact block, and a products array of every device the establishment lists with its product code, device class, medical specialty, and regulation number. Missing source values are returned as null (the source's own -- placeholder is left as-is where FDA uses it).

Data covers FDA-registered medical device establishments worldwide, including foreign facilities that export to the United States.

Quickstart

Open the actor, paste this into the input, and press Run. It returns 5 Boston Scientific establishments.

{
  "companyName": "Boston Scientific",
  "maxRecords": 5,
  "establishmentType": "",
  "deviceClass": "",
  "initialImporterOnly": false
}

Leave every filter empty to pull the most recent registrations. All filters are optional and combine with logical AND.

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~openfda-device-establishments-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=<TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"deviceName":"catheter","country":"US","deviceClass":"2","maxRecords":50}'

Start a run asynchronously:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/scrapers_lat~openfda-device-establishments-scraper/runs?token=<TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"productCode":"LLZ","maxRecords":500}'

Apify CLI:

apify call scrapers_lat/openfda-device-establishments-scraper \
  --input '{"companyName":"Medtronic","state":"MN"}'

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 establishment record returned (result event). See the pricing tab for the current per-result price.
• 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.
• Free Apify plans are capped at 10 records per run. Upgrade for higher maxRecords.
• Source pagination ceiling. openFDA allows up to 26000 records per query. For larger pulls, split the work with narrower filters (country, state, or product code).

FAQ and troubleshooting

A run returned 0 records. Why? The filter combination matched nothing in the source. Loosen filters (for example remove state or deviceClass), or confirm the company or product code. Zero-result runs are not charged.

Does this include foreign establishments? Yes. FDA registers foreign device establishments that export to the United States. Filter by country to target a specific one, and use initialImporterOnly for US initial importers.

How do I find establishments for a specific device? Use productCode for an exact FDA product code, or deviceName for a keyword match against the listed device names.

What are the -- values in zip and postalCode? That is the FDA source's own placeholder for a missing value. The actor leaves real source strings unchanged; genuinely absent values are null.

How do I reach the establishment? Each record carries the owner/operator address and the US agent contact block (usAgentName, usAgentEmail, usAgentPhone), when the FDA publishes them.

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