Hi there, yes, if unsure I would put whatever you have in the “query” attribute. That starts a fuzzy search and virtually always gives a result, but it may be the wrong company. If you have the exact name (minus GmbH or such), you can also use the “name” attribute, but it cannot be fuzzy. Keep in mind that there are many companies called “Weber GmbH” or “Fischer GmbH”, so it will pick one arbitrarily if you do that. Alternatively, separate the two steps. Use /lookup, which works exactly with the same POST-request, but it gives you ten (or more, you can specify) results. You may be able to browse them and pick the correct one. Then use the ID for the GET /companies/ID/data request. Hope this helps! Thanks for using Implisense 😃
Best,
