About this source

Verra runs the Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) Registry, the largest voluntary carbon-credit registry in the world. This connector reads its public registry API (no credentials) for carbon-offset projects across Verra's programs (VCS and CCB) — project name, proponent, status, country/region, methodology/protocol, estimated annual emission reductions, and crediting periods — plus per-program issuance, retirement, and registered-project totals. Useful for carbon-accounting, ESG reporting, offset sourcing, and verifying carbon-credit provenance. Complements the Gold Standard registry connector. Toggle on and use — no setup needed.

    Paginationcursor (cursorField: cursor, limitField: size)

    status is exact (e.g. Late to Verify); continue with nextCursor, same filters.

  • getProject

    read

    Get one project by Verra resourceIdentifier (resolved client-side; no native by-id endpoint).

    id is the numeric project ID, e.g. 6027 or "VCS 6027". Scans the corpus.

  • getProgramSummary

    read

    Per-program unit totals (issued, retired, active) and project counts the registry reports.

    Defaults to VCS. CCB and SD-VISTA report validated/verified project counts only.

  • getServiceInfo
