Civic: API reference
9 endpoints. Base URL https://princegeorgepulse.ca/api/v1. Conventions (envelope, paging, fields, formats, limits) are on the overview. All endpoints.
GET /api/v1/council/votes #
How council voted: every recorded council vote of the current term, with each member’s vote.
From the City of Prince George’s council voting summaries (one per meeting, each member marked Yes, No or Absent), cross-checked with the adopted minutes (the official record), which add the mover and seconder. votes maps each member to for, against, absent or conflict exactly as the summary marks them; members with no mark are left out. minutes.check is 'match' when the minutes give the same result and name the same members as opposed, 'mismatch' when they differ (the site leaves those out of its counts), 'unmatched' or 'no-minutes' when they could not be compared. Newest first. Refreshed monthly.
