Companies House Search Http Response Code

API Question
1

Hi,
If a CRN number is incorrectly formatted in the Company Profile API call
GET https://api.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/{companyNumber}

What’s the response code.

You can try this yourself - just feed in e.g. 123456 as the company code (this is missing a couple of digits) or “XX123456” (right length but unknown prefix) - you’ll get a 404.

If you mangle the request enough you might get a 400 but I haven’t checked this.
