Frequently asked questions

What organizations does this scraper cover?

It covers the full IRS Exempt Organizations Business Master File as indexed by ProPublica Nonprofit Explorer, which is more than 1.8 million US tax-exempt organizations. You can search every state and territory, every NTEE mission category and every 501(c) subsection type.

How many results can I get from one run?

Search returns 25 organizations per page and you control the total with Max Items. A single search query can surface thousands of matches, so narrow with a state, category or 501(c) type to focus the pull. EIN lookup mode fetches exactly the organizations you list.

How do I filter the nonprofits I want?

Combine a free-text query with filters for state, NTEE category and 501(c) tax-exempt type. To pull specific organizations instead, paste their EINs into the EIN list and the search filters are ignored.

Why are some financial fields empty?

Smaller nonprofits often file the short Form 990-N postcard, which carries no financial figures, so revenue, expenses and assets are null for them. Larger organizations have full Form 990 data and their filings array is populated. Missing values are returned as null and never invented.

What happens when an EIN is not found?

The actor returns a record with the EIN and an error field explaining it was not found, so your run still completes successfully and you can see exactly which lookups missed.
