CRO Open Services
"CRO Open Services" is a RESTful API.
It offers the public a means of integrating Company and Submission data into their applications using simple REST calls.
How it works
Your application, which may be written in Java, C#, Php, Python or any other programming language, will
execute simple GET requests to a RESTful API. Your application will then handle the returned data in whatever way
you wish. Typical examples would be listing company search results, retrieving the details of a company,
or listing all of the documents filed with the CRO for a specified company.
The information supplied by Open Services is the same as the free information currently available on the
CRO Company Search website.
Cost
The company and submsision search service is free of charge.
There is an additional pay-per-call feature which allows Customer Account holders
to retrieve submission documents or company print outs as byte streams. For more information, see the section on the
API for Account Holders.
Support
For the free services, programming support to individuals is not available from the CRO, but queries
in relation to incorrect data and faults with the service will be dealt with.
A basic level of competence in at least one programming language is required.
A number of code examples are available.
However, support will be provided to Customer Account holders wishing to
use the document streaming service.
