Lookup supersociedades · obligated by NIT

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

A company observation at the reporting cut date with judicial notification attributes. Coverage: Companies in the published obligated/supervised entity list. Use the NIT body without check digit. coNit normalizes accepted inputs to the zero-padded stored body; keep it as a string. The 2025 status/address repair is identified by upstream_layout; original cleaned columns remain available. 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.

Coverage varies by country and public source. A missing field is not evidence that the underlying fact does not exist. Public registries may be delayed or contain source errors; inspect the returned evidence and source date before relying on a result.
