Scripts, tools and insights for working with MuckRock's API.

  • MuckRock's newly released bulk data. Covers FOIA requests submitted through their service — as well as data on government FOIA offices and officers..

API

The easiest way to use MuckRock's data is via the CSVs and bulk download, but we also have an API that allows access to the freshest data. Examples of the API are available are here; possibly of particular interest there's also a filing example to automate filing if you have an agency and jurisdiction's ID, which are available in the agency and jurisdiction CSVs.

You can also just google MuckRock + agnency or jurisdiction name and grab the number at the end of the URL to get an entity's ID.

Many pieces of the data dictionary live on status.
