Is there an API for City of Phoenix PayOnline?

City of Phoenix PayOnline does not offer a public data API for this, but Anakin Wire provides 3 maintained endpoints for surl.li. You call Anakin's REST API with an action ID and parameters and get structured JSON back; Anakin handles the browser, proxies, anti-bot, and parsing.

How do I scrape City of Phoenix PayOnline data?

POST to https://api.anakin.io/v1/wire/task with your API key, the action ID, and its parameters, then poll GET /v1/wire/jobs/{id} until the job settles. There is nothing to install and no scraper to maintain — when surl.li changes its markup, Anakin updates the action.

Some City of Phoenix PayOnline actions read data that is only visible when signed in, so those need a credential you connect once. Actions marked "read" without a login requirement run anonymously.
