FAQ
Questions Regulations.gov owners ask.
- 01
How can I filter documents by a specific government agency?
Use the search_documents capability and provide the agencyId parameter (e.g., 'EPA', 'FAA', or 'CMS'). This will restrict the results to materials published only by that specific agency.
- 02
Is it possible to see what the public is saying about a specific rule?
Yes! Use the search_comments capability with the commentOnId parameter set to the unique Document ID. You can then use get_comment with a specific Comment ID to read the full text of any submission.
- 03
How do I get the complete history of a specific rulemaking folder?
Use the get_docket capability with the specific Docket ID. This retrieves the primary metadata for the docket, while search_documents with the same docket ID can list all associated rules and supporting materials.
