🏛️ NCARB Architects Directory Scraper
🚀 Export NCARB certified architect records in seconds. Name, license state, license number, status, certified date.
🕒 Last updated: 2026-05-29 · 📊 6 fields per record · Structured records · Ready for CSV, Excel, JSON, XML
The NCARB Architects Directory Scraper turns a public data source into a clean, structured dataset. Every record is normalized, numeric fields cast, and rate-limit notices surfaced as a clean error row instead of crashing the run.
| 🎯 Target Audience | 💡 Primary Use Cases |
|---|---|
| 📊 Analysts | Build datasets for reporting and BI |
| 🏢 B2B teams | Enrich CRM and prospecting workflows |
| 🤖 ML engineers | Construct training and evaluation sets |
| 📰 Journalists | Verify facts with one click |
| 👩💻 Developers | Mirror upstream data into your own database |
| 🧪 Researchers | Snapshot a domain for longitudinal study |
📋 What the NCARB Architects Directory Scraper does
- Queries the upstream source with the parameters you supply.
- Parses each record and flattens it into a single row.
- Casts numeric and date fields where appropriate.
- Surfaces upstream errors and rate limits as a clean error record.
- Exports as CSV, Excel, JSON, JSONL, XML, RSS, or HTML.
💡 Why it matters: raw upstream responses are rarely ready for analysis. This actor produces a flat, typed dataset you can drop straight into pandas, BigQuery, or a spreadsheet.
