Processing the XBRL files for accounts?

API Question
1

Hi,

I’m baffled as to how we are supposed to use the data here: Companies House

You can obviously open the .html files up in Firefox and read them - but the ABRL stuff is jibberish and doesn’t seem to colate with anything. How do we go about parsing it? For example, to find the “gross turnover” for a company? I’ve spent the last 5 hours tryig to figure this out - so I’m hoping someone can point me in the right direction!

Thanks

Andy

We publish the data, you decide whether to use it and how to use it.
You will also need to understand XML and how to parse it.
If you do not have this knowledge you may need to engage professional IT services that will be able to help.
