Israel Nonprofits Amutot Registry Scraper

Israel Nonprofits Amutot Registry Scraper

Scrape the full Israeli Amutot nonprofit registry from data.gov.il, up to a million records per run. Every nonprofit comes with its registration number, legal name, founding date, goals, and managing members. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.

The Israeli Registrar of Nonprofits publishes the Amutot registry as a public dataset on data.gov.il, but the official portal offers no bulk export or searchable API for structured analysis. This Actor reads the dataset directly, filters by nonprofit name or keyword, and returns each matching record in one fixed schema. No API key, no registration, no manual downloads.

Troubleshooting

Why am I getting no results?

Check your query spelling. The search matches against the nonprofit name and goal fields. Try a shorter keyword or remove the query filter entirely to see all records.

The run failed with a connection error.

The data.gov.il CKAN API may be temporarily unavailable. Wait a few minutes and retry. If the problem persists, check the Israeli government open data portal status.

Some records have empty English fields.

The registry does not always provide English translations for every nonprofit. The Hebrew fields are the authoritative source. Check the Hebrew name and goal fields for the complete data.

The dataset seems outdated.

The Actor fetches whatever data.gov.il currently serves. The Israeli government updates the dataset on its own schedule. Schedule regular runs to catch updates when they are published.

I changed the resource ID and now the Actor fails.

The resource ID must point to a valid CKAN resource on data.gov.il. Verify the ID on the data.gov.il website. The default prefilled ID is the official Amutot registry resource.

FAQ

Question	Answer
What is an Amuta?	An Amuta is a registered nonprofit organization under Israeli law, governed by the Amutot Law. The registry is maintained by the Israeli Registrar of Nonprofits and published as open data on data.gov.il.
Do I need an API key or government login?	No. The Actor reads the public CKAN dataset from data.gov.il directly. No registration, API key, or government credentials are required.
What fields does each record contain?	Each record includes the registration number, Hebrew and English names, founding date, stated goals, managing members, and other registry fields. The exact field list is shown in a sample record on the Actor's page.
Can I search for nonprofits by name?	Yes. Use the optional query field to filter by amuta name or stated goal. The filter runs before records are written to your dataset.
How many records can I collect in one run?	You can set the maximum up to one million records per run. The full registry is smaller than this, so you can collect the entire dataset in a single run.
Is the data in Hebrew or English?	The dataset includes both Hebrew and English fields. The original Hebrew name and goals are preserved alongside English translations where the registry provides them.
How often is the registry updated?	The data.gov.il dataset is updated periodically by the Israeli government. Each run of the Actor fetches the latest available data from the source.
What export formats are supported?	You can export your results to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML from the Apify dataset tab after the run completes.
Can I schedule this Actor to run automatically?	Yes. Use Apify's scheduler to run the Actor daily, weekly, or monthly and track changes in the registry over time.
What is the resource ID and do I need to change it?	The resource ID identifies the specific dataset on data.gov.il. A default ID for the Amutot registry is prefilled. You only need to change it if the government publishes a new dataset version with a different ID.
