Search public companies
Searches the public company directory by name, ticker or CIK for a credit workspace. Each row is a registrant summary with its filing count and latest filing date. No Markets subscription is needed.
The matches ride the list envelope’s data, at most limit
of them. The search is not paged: has_more is false and
next_cursor null; narrow the text to see other matches.
Requires the loans:read scope. Rate limit: 200 requests per minute per key (the api lane).
