Overview
DatoCapital v3 is a read-only REST API serving companies, directors, and filings — densest in the major European registries (Spain, UK, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Malta, Gibraltar) and well-covered for offshore centres (BVI, Cayman, Panama, Bermuda).
What's here
- /v3/companies — list (filterable, geo-aware, full-text), single profile, secondary URL form by registry id, filings sub-resource.
- /v3/individuals — full-text person search, single profile by opaque id.
- /v3/suggest — typeahead against company and individual cores.
- /v3/reference/* — country and company-type catalogs.
- /v3/whoami — your plan + every entitlement rule the catalog applies to your tier.
Conventions
- Authentication — bearer token in
Authorization: Bearer .... Read more. - Identifiers — public ids are opaque (UEC for companies,
id_codfor individuals and filings). Internal numeric ids never leak. - Pagination — opaque cursors. No
page/offsetparameters. - Errors — RFC 9457 problem documents on every non-2xx response.
- Tier gating — endpoints return
403; fields silently suppress. Inspect/v3/whoami.entitlementsto learn what your plan unlocks. - Localisation — pass
?language=en|es|fr|nlfor status / inscription type labels where supported.
Versioning
The major version is in the URL (/v3). We add fields and endpoints freely; we never remove or rename a field within a version. Deprecation goes through a header with a sunset date.
