I am trying to find a company through alphabetic search.
This is an example company id: 07307709 name: “AHIMSA DAIRY FOUNDATION”, which existence is confirmed by the company API
curl -s -XGET -u my_api_key: https://api.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/07307709 | jq '.company_name'
"AHIMSA DAIRY FOUNDATION"
however when I am trying to search for “AHIMSA” or “AHIMSA DAIRY FOUNDATION” through /alphabetic-search/companies
I am always getting an empty list
curl -s -XGET -u my_api_key: "https://api.company-information.service.gov.uk/alphabetic-search/companies?q=AHIMSA&size=5"
{}
curl -s -XGET -u my_api_key: "https://api.company-information.service.gov.uk/alphabetic-search/companies?q=AHIMSA%20DAIRY%20FOUNDATION&size=5"
{}
What am I doing wrong?
