FAC API resources

The FAC API provides access to public data from submitted audit reports.

To use the API, you will need an API key from Data.gov. Getting a key is free and only requires a valid email address.

To request your API key, visit the FAC API signup page.

Once you have a key, you can start making requests to FAC endpoints using tools like curl, Python, or PowerShell.

For legal and usage guidance, review the terms and conditions.
