ASIC Extract Person Search API
/asic_extract_person_search
Finds the ASIC person_id identifiers you need to order a full person extract. You send legal name, date of birth and extract type. The response is matched ASIC identities, including any linked person IDs (where someone has the same name and DOB recorded across different shareholdings, for example). Pass those linked IDs through to the extract call so the resulting extract stitches together every related role

Why are there linked person IDs in the response?
ASIC sometimes has multiple person records for the same individual (where someone is recorded across different shareholdings, for example). The additional array surfaces these linked IDs so you can pass them through to the extract call via additional_person_ids. That way the resulting extract contains every related role.
