API documentation

2.5

Intro

Our JSON REST-API is easy to integrate and contains a logical structure of the methods.

What's an API?

An Application Programming Interface (API) is a computing interface which defines interactions between multiple software intermediaries. It defines the kinds of calls or requests that can be made, how to make them, the data formats that should be used, the conventions to follow, without developers having to know how the other software exactly works.

What's an REST API?

Representational State Transfer (for short REST) is a software architectural style that defines a set of constraints to be used for creating Web services. SOAP has been replaced with URLs for addressing and the HTTP methods (GET, POST, DELETE and PUT) for calling the service.

Any programming language currently applicable to dynamically handle HTTP requests, in example with a cURL-library, is suitable for using REST.

Requests

API-token

To make requests to the API-endpoints, you will need an API-token. For development purposes, you can use a development-token. With this you can do test-requests, which will return a number of fixed results, and will not use your production-limit. Never use a development-token in a production environment.

You may create multiple production token, this can be useful if you would like to use the same subscription on different websites. You can make distinction between multiple websites or apps and the total number of requests.

You may create API-tokens for both development- and production requests at your customer portal.

Authorization

You authorize the request by using a Bearer-token (your API-key) in the Authorization-header.

200 Success response

The provided authorization token is valid.

-H "Content-Type: application/json" \

    }
}
HTTP/1.1 200 OK

Pagination

Some methods return more than one result and are paginated over multiple pages. These requests will always include a Pagination-object. The maximum number of results per request depend on the purchased plan.

Response

  • Field
    Type
    Description
  • limit
    integer
    The used pagination limit, by default the maximum limit allowed by your plan
  • page
    integer
    The current page
  • totalPages
    integer
    The number of pages
  • totalItems
    integer
    The total number of items in the source data
  • countItems
    integer
    The number of items in the current request
  • estimate
    boolean
    If true, the number of total items is based on a quick scan. The total item count may vary if the next page is requested.

Headers

A number of API-related headers are included in the response headers of the request. They are useful to determine how many requests you have left for the current period and what type of key you're currently using.

Example (headers)

X-API-Key-Type: production
X-API-Request-Count: 124
X-API-Request-Limit: 1000
X-API-Search-Request-Count: 794
X-API-Search-Request-Limit: 1000

Description

The headers below are displayed in a request. Some values may depend on the type of key used (development- or production key).

  • Header
    Type
    Description
  • X-API-Key-Type
    string
    The type of the used API-key. `development` for a development-key and `production` regarding a production key.
  • X-API-Request-Count
    integer
    The request count usage of the current period, excluding the current request.
  • X-API-Request-Limit
    integer
    The maximum allowed requests per period.
  • X-API-Search-Request-Count
    integer
    The maximum allowed search requests per period.
  • X-API-Search-Request-Limit
    integer
    The request search count usage of the current period, excluding the current request.

This details serves as an aid, and can also be seen visually on your dashboard.

Endpoints

All end-points must begin with one of the following protocol and domain name, depending on the implementation and key-type:

  • Protocol and domain name
    Environment
    Description
  • https://api.kbodata.app/v2/
    production
    KBO API (production key)
  • https://mock.api.kbodata.app/v2/
    development
    KBO Mock API (development key)

Arguments prefixed with a (asterisk) are required, without these arguments the request will fail. Other arguments are optional.

To not publish any (old or incorrect) enterprise data on our website, we use fictional data in our examples.

Before you start with the implementation of our API, it is useful to have a clear picture of the data structure, below you fill find an image of the hierarchy of data and how they relate to each other.

Enterprise Denominations Enterprise/Addresses Enterprise/Activities Activities Activities Juridical forms Juridical situations Establishments Establishment/Denominations Establishment/Addresses Establishment/Activities Establishment/Activities Establishment/Activities

As you can see, a denomination, address and activity can be related to both an enterprise or an establishment. Unfortunately, there are not any fixed rules for this structure. So in example it will be possible that an enterprise does not have any registration addresses, however the establishment linked to the enterprise does. Vice versa is also possible. Therefore, it is always a good idea to check the establishments of the enterprises if you are looking for any specific data.

Responses

HTTP status codes

By looking at the HTTP response code, you can see if the request was successful or not. If the request was unsuccessful, you can usually use the HTTP response code and the error message in the JSON-response to find out what went wrong. You probably need change something in the request parameters.

Below is a list of common HTTP response codes, used in our API:

  • 200 OK
    Success The request was successful and the data can be used.
  • 401 Unauthorized
    Not authorized You will retrieve this status code if the authorization fails, possible by using an incorrect username or access token.
  • 402 Payment Required
    Means that your plan has expired and needs renewal. You can do this on your dashboard.
  • 404 Not Found
    Will be returned if the specific item requested, cannot be found. Also used when an endpoint doesn't exist, but the API-token is valid.
  • 405 Method Not Allowed
    The used request method is unaccepted, in example this will be returned when the requested method is POST, but should be a GET.
  • 409 Conflict 422 Unprocessable Entity
    Incorrect or missing parameters The requested request could not be processed, usually due missing required parameters or parameters that contain an incorrect format.
  • 429 Too Many Requests
    Request limit exceeded You have exceeded the maximum number of requests for this period, wait until for a limit reset at the end of your period or upgrade your subscription plan. You can do this on your dashboard.
