Registration ID

The ID you pass must only contain letters and numbers. Remove all whitespace, hyphens, underscores, periods, ampersands, and other punctuation. Characters from any language are allowed, but should be in upper case. Example: Registration ID 30-0108263 should be requested as /US/EIN/300108263

GlobalGiving Atlas contains a range of attributes for organizations. You are guaranteed to have the following fields available:

  • id
  • name
  • registration_country
  • registration_id

We provide a best effort attempt to provide the following fields for as many organizations as possible:

  • registration_active
  • mailing_address
  • phone
  • employee_count
  • volunteer_count
  • mission
  • website (and other website_* fields)
  • year_founded

When possible, we include additional, country-specific fields that we can collect. The fields have a prefix with the country code. For example, many organization in Canada have a "ca_category", "ca_subcategory", and "ca_org_type". See more: https://www.globalgiving.org/atlas/country/canada/
