What does the Buffalo NY 311 data include?

One table, service requests, with one row per service request.

Do I need an account with Buffalo NY 311?

No. The data is public, so there is nothing to sign up for and nothing to paste in.

How fresh is the data?

As fresh as your schedule: daily by default, or weekly or monthly. Schedules as often as every 15 minutes are on the Enterprise plan. Each run replaces the table with a fresh copy, so edits and removals at the source show up after the next run.

Will running it again create duplicate rows?

No. Each run replaces the table, so it never holds two copies of the same row.

Do I need to write code?

No. Ingest builds, runs and maintains the connector. Someone with access to your warehouse connects it once, following a short guide.
