5There's nothing I like more than a little open data and transparency!  This Val shows you how to use the [California Secretary of State Business Search](https://bizfileonline.sos.ca.gov/search/business) as a faux-API and get notifications when records change.  This lets you know when a business updates their records, changes their good-standing status, and so on.
