please help to resolve this issue.

I can confirm that the IP address - 35.178.42.188 is not banned from our organisation. Could I please ask as what rate are you querying data from Companies House. If you were in breach of the API limit you would be returned a status code of 429 not 403.

hi @SteveBowen,

We are getting a 403 forbidden error on the company search API. We are facing this error on the website.
When we check the API within the Postman app at that time, it is working fine, and when we use the same PHP Curl code on the website at that time, it gives us the below error in response.

[response] => Array
(
[code] => 403
[message] => Forbidden
)

Could you let us know how to fix this?

Let us know if you need more information.

Regards,
