Best way to get officers data

Bulk Data Requests
1

Hey guys, what is the best way to get access to the officers of the company?

When downloading bulk data about companies, there is a link to URI , however there is not “People” tab, like in here

My question is, what is the best way to obtain these data. Is it API or can I get it elsewhere?

Thanks

The simplest way may be to request the data in bulk from Companies House on this thread:

…otherwise I believe that yes, you’ll need the API - but that is not designed for obtaining “bulk” data (e.g. just downloading their whole data set). I think the intention of that is for more limited / specific queries about particular companies / officers etc.

With the API You are limited to 600 Requests per 5 minutes. One Request can pull a list of all Company Offices for a Company. Which for 1 Million Companies would take the best part of 6 Days flat out. So it really depends how ofter you pull down company data and how often you need a refresh.
