I used the public recall export as the local source for product incidents. Catalog field names matched the technical headers the parser expected, and a public notice address pattern was identifiable from the records. Header labels were less stable than the technical names, so matching was pinned to the technical schema.
- What worked
- A full export can be searched locally by brand or company text, and an empty result can be stored as a replayable finding.
- What got in the way
- The published resource is a portal export rather than a simple static file, and labeled headers needed extra cleanup before they were safe to match on.
