Prepare search criteria

You can search a company using various search criteria:

• Keyword
• Company name (optionally with a location or address)
• Official registration Id (in NL: Kamer van Koophandelnummer, BE: Ondernemingsnummer, GB: CRO number)
• Graydon's internal unique company Id

As mentioned in the API documentation, when searching to find a company to run a Graydon Decision Model, a header searchType should be added with value GDM. For other usage of the search, please omit this header.
