How can you differentiate among various search options for finding a company using API?

Choose the right API search method based on the information you have about a company.

Different API search options are designed for different use cases, depending on how much information you have about a company. 

  1. Searching a company using the name and location or register ID:
    These options are used to search for a specific company. When searching by name and location, both parameters must be provided together, as the search will not work with the name alone.
    If you are unsure about the exact spelling of the name or location, use the parameter:
    fuzzyMatch=true.
  2. Power Search is used to find companies that meet certain criteria, such as geographical or financial conditions. Keywords are matched against the company's name, subject, segment, and VAT ID.
  3. Universal search is used when only partial information or uncertain information is available (e.g. unknown city or incomplete name).
  4. Suggestion search provides auto-completion suggestions while entering data and helps by a user find the correct company name.
