05Notes & Limitations
Behaviours and constraints worth knowing before you build with these nodes.
- Establishment ratings reflect the most recent inspection and are not live, so a returned rating may be several months or years old rather than the business's current standing.
- Scottish establishments follow a separate scheme that reports a pass or improvement-required status instead of the 0-to-5 star rating used in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, so build flows to handle both formats.
- Newly registered or recently reinspected businesses may not appear straight away, as the published ratings data is refreshed periodically rather than in real time.
