**Category:** Government & Public Data | **Website:** [civicstream.tv/category/state/](https://civicstream.tv/category/state/) | **Docs:** [parse.bot/marketplace/b7f50d43-d7e1-43a3-b28d-f5ab5ca8603b/civicstream-tv-api](https://parse.bot/marketplace/b7f50d43-d7e1-43a3-b28d-f5ab5ca8603b/civicstream-tv-api)

Pay-per-use API proxy for Locus Pro. Each call burns credits from your workspace balance.

## Access

**Base URL:** `https://api.beta.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/civic-stream/`
**Auth:** `Authorization: Bearer <LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY>` (an `lcr_` secret key or a scoped `lcac_` agent credential)
**Required header:** `Idempotency-Key: <fresh UUID per call>`. A retry with the same key replays the stored result without a new charge.
**Response:** the provider response after any endpoint-specific normalization. `X-Locus-Credits-Charged` carries the charge and `X-Locus-Credits-Balance` the remaining balance. Insufficient credits return `402` before the provider is called.
**Pricing:** estimated costs below are USD. Locus debits the credit equivalent at your workspace rate.

Full call contract: https://docs.paywithlocus.com/api-reference/introduction

> Using a Pay With Locus wallet key (`claw_` prefix)? Wallet routes are documented separately: https://docs.paywithlocus.com/wrapped-apis/for-agents

## Endpoints

### Get schedule

Returns the current live government streams listed on Civic Stream. Results are paginated at 12 streams per page. Each stream includes its title, URL, thumbnail image, live status, and the actual embedded video/playback URL (HLS m3u8 or YouTube). Fetches each stream's detail page to extract the playback source, so response time scales with the number of streams on the page (up to 12 sub-requests). The total number of pages and streams is included in the response.

**Estimated cost:** Metered

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-------|------|----------|-------------|
| `page` | integer | No | Page number for pagination. Each page contains up to 12 streams. |
