This repository contains the code responsible for scraping bills & votes for Open States.
A few states require credentials to access their APIs. If you want to run code for these states, get credentials for yourself using these steps:
-
NY
- Get credentials at: https://legislation.nysenate.gov/#signup
- Set in environment prior to running scrape:
NEW_YORK_API_KEY
-
IN
- Get credentials at: http://docs.api.iga.in.gov/introduction.html#security-and-authentication
- Set in environment prior to running scrape:
INDIANA_API_KEY - As a side note, Indiana also requires a
user-agent string <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/User-Agent>_, so set that in your environment as well, prior to running scrape:USER_AGENT
