Have API to external database, need to display and plot (map) results on existing WordPress site

Job ID: 33701529

Budget: $750 – $1,500 USD

I have a WordPress site that, currently, is using a static self-hosted copy of an external database export (imported as ACF custom post type entries) to search and then show/plot results using FacetWP. Since then, the external database has provided API documentation that will provide search results via JSON.

I need a quote to have either: (1) a WordPress plugin that will establish a cron job to regularly scrape the entire external database (via API) and replace the local copy (ACF-defined custom post type) or (2) code updates to integrate with the existing FacetWP search/display functionality to provide "live" search/display results.

The current functionality is here: https://mentalhealthtx.org/find-provider/

Due to the state government nature of the project, only US-based developers can be considered.

Additional details can be provided upon request.
