The only Irish construction-data API — in your stack.
No other Irish construction-leads source gives you the data programmatically. Planning applications, commencement notices, company contacts and market intelligence behind one REST endpoint — 21,943 leads across all 31 authorities, updated weekly. Query it, bulk-export it, or have matching leads pushed to you in real time.
The only Irish construction dataset you can wire straight into your stack, your CRM, your tools.

OpenAPI spec
Every endpoint, parameter and response schema in a machine-readable openapi.json — generate clients, browse Swagger or ReDoc.
Quickstart
Authenticated in one header
Create a key once you're on the Max plan, then send it as a Bearer token on any read endpoint. Every response carries X-RateLimit-* headers so you can back off cleanly.
# Authenticate any read endpoint with your Bearer key.
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer pl_live_…" \
"https://planningleads.ie/api/v1/leads?readiness=commencing&vertical=solar&min_units=20"Bulk-export the dataset
import pandas as pd, requests
# Stream the whole filtered dataset as JSONL straight into a DataFrame.
url = "https://planningleads.ie/api/v1/export/applications.jsonl"
headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer pl_live_…"}
params = {"readiness": "commencing", "min_units": 20}
resp = requests.get(url, headers=headers, params=params, stream=True)
df = pd.read_json(resp.raw, lines=True)
print(df[["planning_authority", "est_value", "lead_readiness"]].head())Individual (homeowner) names are masked — organisation-level data only, GDPR-safe.
Webhooks
New matching leads, pushed to you — no polling
Register a webhook and we POST leads that match your saved filters the moment they appear. Each request is HMAC-SHA256 signed with an X-PL-Signature header — recompute it over the raw body and compare timing-safe. The docs carry copy-paste Python and Node verification snippets.
