What you get#
Onekey exposes Federal Register as 6 endpoints behind one API key: 2 endpoints return one record (data is an object) and 4 endpoints return a list (data is an array). Every answer uses the same envelope (success, data, metadata, error), the cost is reported in metadata.credits_charged, and fields are mapped onto the unified schema so the code you write for Federal Register also works for the rest of the government & public data category.
Endpoints#
| Endpoint | What it does | Parameters | Credits | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
agencies | All agencies publishing in the Federal Register. | - | 5 | stable |
agency | One agency by slug. | slug* | 1 | stable |
document | One Federal Register document by document number. | number* | 1 | stable |
latest | Latest Federal Register documents. | per_page | 5 | stable |
public_inspection | Documents currently on public inspection. | - | 5 | stable |
search | Search Federal Register documents by term. | q*, per_page | 5 | stable |
A * marks a required parameter. Each endpoint name links to its reference page with the full parameter table, caching window and a recorded response.

This calls federalregister.agency (1 credit, stable). Replace YOUR_API_KEY with your key; sign up, no card. 1,000 free credits cover the open-platform endpoints. Hard-to-reach platforms (X, TikTok, Instagram, Reddit, and others marked on their page) need a verified email and a purchased pack.

-H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY"Fields you get back#
These unified fields come back from Federal Register, with the same names as on every other platform. The count is how many of its 6 mapped endpoints return the field; a field the source lacks is null, never missing. 3 platform-specific fields (ext.<name>) come on top, documented on each endpoint page.
| Field | Type | Endpoints |
