  Code

  • // Instantiate the Choreo, using a previously instantiated TembooSession object, eg:
    // TembooSession session = new TembooSession("accountName", "myFirstApp", "abc123xxxxxxxxxxxxxx");
    
    Search searchChoreo = new Search(session);
    
    // Get an InputSet object for the choreo
    SearchInputSet searchInputs = searchChoreo.newInputSet();
    
    // Set inputs
    
    // Execute Choreo
    SearchResultSet searchResults = searchChoreo.execute(searchInputs);

• Notes

  • This Choreo provides a fuzzy-matching text search of the legislators. The documentation for this resource can be found here.

    Note: the Filters input can be used to filter on many fields using a simple JSON object containing key/value pairs:

    {
        "chamber": "house",
        "party": "R"
    }

    Here is an example of acceptable inputs:

    APIKey: {YOUR API KEY}
    Query: Ratcliffe
