FAQ

Questions Federal Register owners ask.

  • 01

    How do I find documents from a specific agency like the FDA?

    First, use the list_agencies capability to find the correct agency slug or ID. Then, use the search_documents capability and provide that slug in the agencies parameter to filter results.

  • 02

    Can I see documents before they are officially published in the daily register?

    Yes! Use the search_public_inspection or get_current_public_inspection capabilities. These access the 'Public Inspection' desk, which contains documents filed for public review before their formal publication date.

  • 03

    Is it possible to search for documents related to a specific Regulation Identifier Number (RIN)?

    Absolutely. Use the search_documents capability and provide the rin parameter. This will return all published documents associated with that specific regulatory action.
