Endpoint which returns available languages for a report. The JSON structure of the report is language invariant, but field content will return in the selected language where available.
Note: The availability of field content in a specific language depends on the data source. If certain properties in the report are not available in the chosen language, they will default to English. As a result, only a certain percentage of the report may appear in the selected language.

Endpoints to search for Companies in the Creditsafe Global Company Database. Companies are uniquely identified by the connectId
- the identifier used to order a Company Credit Report. The Company Credit Report is a JSON object comprising of key business and financial data points such as Credit Score & Limit, Industry Code, Directors, Balance Sheet and Negative Information. A full list of Company data points can be found in the Data Matrix, in the help resources.
Endpoints to find People/Directors and order Director Reports. A Director Report will contain a person's registered information and Active & Previous Directorships, where available. This endpoint is not advised to get a list of directors for a specific Company. Instead, order a Company Credit Report using the /companies/{id}
endpoint, and use the directors
section in the response.
Endpoints to order official Company Image/Filing Documents from source. Company Filings such as Annual Account Statements, Annual Returns, Liquidations and Changes of Registered Information can be downloaded as PDFs, and are typically used as a resource in extended company auditing/compliance.
Endpoints to manage Fresh Investigation requests. With the need for accurate data, you can check on any company that is not available within our instant online database by placing a Fresh Investigation (Offline Order). Depending on the market, the information we obtain will vary. Using official sources and registries we are able to quickly answer questions about a company's stability and financial health. Where official information is not available we will conduct a direct interview with the business.
