Lookup supersociedades · balance by NIT

GET https://api.latinfo.dev/co/supersociedades/balance/nit/{nit}

One original financial line item per filing, reporting basis, concept and period. Coverage: Partial coverage of corporate financial reporting companies. Use the NIT body without check digit. coNit normalizes accepted inputs to the zero-padded stored body; keep it as a string. Amounts are thousands of COP. Preserve separate filings, reporting bases and comparative periods; do not sum indiscriminately. Reuse retains publisher attribution and CC BY-SA 4.0 license obligations; this dataset is not mapped to universal normalized financial metrics. Returns all records as an array. Import time is not observation time; inspect freshness headers. Add limit (1–500) and offset to retrieve an explicit page; without them the complete original array is returned. X-Total-Count gives the exact row count; follow Link rel=next to retrieve all pages.
