About this API
data.gov.il is the official open-data portal of the Government of Israel, built on CKAN. It exposes thousands of datasets from government bodies — including Israeli company-registry (ICA) data — through a uniform REST API. Searching and fetching datasets works the same way as in other CKAN portals (e.g. dane.gov.pl).
Frequently asked questions
Do I need an API key?
No, the CKAN API is public and free — no registration, no key required.
What data does this API return?
Metadata and contents of Israeli Government datasets, including the company registry. You can search by keyword or fetch a specific dataset.
Can this API be called directly from a browser?
Yes — the API returns a CORS header allowing calls from any domain, so it works directly from frontend code (hence the live "Try it" button above).
Who runs this API?
The Government of Israel. Full documentation and a dataset search are available at data.gov.il.
