ASIC Extract Company Search API

/asic_extract_company_search
LIVE

Finds the ASIC identifiers you need when ordering a company extract via /asic_extract. Supports ABN, ACN and free-form name search modes, auto-detected from the input format. Name searches accept registration status filters (registered / deregistered / all) and optional postcode or state filters to narrow large name-match result sets.

What's the difference between this and asic_search?

add

asic_search is a general-purpose company lookup. This one is scoped specifically to return the identifiers (ACN or ABN) needed to call /asic_extract. Both share input modes (ABN, ACN, name) but the response shapes differ. This one returns the structure needed by the extract endpoint.
