Hi @jlow81 - I was interested in picking this up as a first issue (just heard about code.gov, very cool!) but the search bar requires API access to fetch agencies. I'm getting a 403 using when running the app using the provided instructions, so I assume the API key in the config is not valid. Any way around this?

Hi, @showell215 . You can get an API key for local development here: https://developers.code.gov/key.html

You'll also run something like this to run it locally:

CODE_GOV_API_KEY=asidfjluwehbfwgabfsdaifjbweuhfbywegbaf run start

or if you are developing on a server like a Cloud 9 environment

sudo CODE_GOV_API_KEY=asidfjluwehbfwgabfsdaifjbweuhfbywegbaf HOST=0.0.0.0 PORT=80 npm run start

Lemme know if you have any more questions! :-)
