Hi Matt,

Thank you for writing out this code. I have minimal Python experience and I am very new to R. I keep getting an error that says:

Error in "https://api.inc.com/rest/i5list/2022" %>% from JSON() %>% .$companies %>% :
could not find function "%>%"

I tried to install the ("magrittr") package as that was a general recommendation but that did not help.

Thank you in advance for any assistance!

This relies on the tidyverse and jsonlite package, so those must be installed first.

I managed to get it working. Used a different CRAN mirror and changed the path.lib to get the packages installed properly. I ran the code and Matt you are a bloody legend. I literally can't thank you enough cause I saved about 3 weeks of my time. God bless you man you are incredible!

Thanks a lot Matt! Thanks a lot!! God Bless You! it worked!
how can I also extract the 'leadership' data of those companies? please help. Sorry to bother you. Its a request. I'm looking for the the data of Inc5000 companies as shown in the attachment. Thank you.

Hi Matt,
I figured to extract the company profile from "https://api.inc.com/rest/companyprofile/blockfi" but I'm able to extract the profile of only one company at a time and finding difficulty saving it in .cvs
Any possibility to list out all the 5000 profiles? please help.

library(tidyverse)
library(jsonlite)
df <- "https://api.inc.com/rest/companyprofile/blockfi" %>%

• fromJSON() %>%
• .$profile %>%
• bind_rows() %>%
• group_by(inc5000companyId) %>%
• mutate(

•  article = ifelse(is.null(article %>% unlist %>% .[1]),NA,article %>% unlist %>% .[1]),
  

•  editorsPick = editorsPick %>% unlist %>% paste(collapse = ",")
  

• ) %>%
• write_csv("profiles.csv")
  Error in mutate():
  ! Problem while computing article = ifelse(...).
  ℹ The error occurred in group 1: inc5000companyId = "130719".
  Caused by error in unlist():
  ! object 'article' not found
  Run rlang::last_error() to see where the error occurred.

Hey Syamjordan

Did you ever figure it out?

Hi Matt, if I want to rerun the list for 2023 is it as simple as changing the URL in the code above to "https://www.inc.com/inc5000/2023"?
