APIs & Feeds
Easy access to our data
Are you interested in maps, politicians, local happenings? Or are you building a web tool that needs data? Then you probably want to read on, because mySociety's UK sites generate a steady stream of information that we make available via APIs and RSS feeds for others to integrate into their own sites and services.
Some services incur charges, based on volume and terms of service.
