Errors on older Committee responses

Open knickfan opened this issue 7 years ago • 7 comments

In calling the API for committee members, I am getting {'status': '500', 'error': 'Internal Server Error'} for the following:

https://api.propublica.org/congress/v1/110/house/committees/HSIG.json https://api.propublica.org/congress/v1/110/house/committees/HSVR.json https://api.propublica.org/congress/v1/110/house/committees/HSPW.json https://api.propublica.org/congress/v1/110/house/committees/HSSM.json https://api.propublica.org/congress/v1/110/house/committees/HSAS.json https://api.propublica.org/congress/v1/110/house/committees/HSHM.json https://api.propublica.org/congress/v1/110/house/committees/HSFA.json https://api.propublica.org/congress/v1/110/house/committees/HSII.json

I'll test them. I have a big batch for subcommittee members too. Should I add to this or create a new issue?

You can add them here.

here you go... subcommittee member error logs.txt

Ok, thanks. This probably will take some time to resolve. Older subcommittee membership data is extremely difficult to track.

Maybe better/more useful to work from the bottom of the list then. Thanks for your help.

An update on this: am working to fix the 114th congress URLs. Our docs indicate that we do not have subcommittee membership data prior to that congress.
