CivicData Open Data API (CKAN) — END OF LIFE is one of 3 APIs that [Accela](https://apis.io/providers/accela/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Open Data, CKAN, Government, and Public Sector. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

CivicData.com is Accela's free open-data platform for government agencies, described on its own site as "a free open data platform built by Accela" and "Built on open source using CKAN". It exposes a live CKAN 2.9.9 Action API — package_list, package_search, status_show, datastore and the spatial extensions — publishing agency datasets such as building permits, inspections, food-facility records and air-quality permits. IT IS BEING SWITCHED OFF: the site states CivicData reached end of life on 30 June 2026 and will be removed after 31 December 2026. Recorded here because it is a real, callable, first-party API today and because CKAN is a named standard in the government regulatory regime — but do not build on it.
