Integration Notes

  • LA County uses a dedicated EPIC-LA portal. The API auto-detects this jurisdiction from the permit number format.
  • Permit data is cached for 4 hours. The data_freshness object in every response shows when the data was last fetched from the portal.
  • Pro and Enterprise plans can use force_refresh=true to bypass the cache and fetch live data.

The SignedOff API provides programmatic access to LA County building permit status via the EPIC-LA portal. Developers can query permit status, inspection results, and processing milestones as structured JSON without manual portal lookups.
