Hi,

I'm trying to use FOIA Machine to send a request to the FBI, but there are a couple of problems. There are multiple entries for the FBI, both in DC and for the US Government, and none has a contact affiliated with it (basically, the FBI main FOIA email, foipar...@ic.fbi.gov). When I try to add it, it claims that email is already affiliated with another entry.

I'm happy to email that myself, but the advantage of FOIA Machine is that it doesn't get lost in the shuffle.

Thanks,
Nigel

Thanks for the note. We're working on merging duplicates. I was able to clean up our data a bit and add the default FOIA contact. You should now be able to send a FOIA request to the FBI if you search for 'fbi' in the contacts pane and add additional contacts to the canonical agency.
