24th April 2024
We have added our new industry classifications to the Company API!
You may have seen on our platform we have recently launched industries improving the quality, scale and relevance of company classifications. You can now access these through the API. If you want more information on the industry classifications please reach out to your Account Manager.
Two new fields have been added to the Company API which you can now request:
industriesA list of industries for the company
top_level_industry_groups A list of top level groups for the industries the company is in
An example response:
"results": [
{
"id": "yrt8hp",
"basic": {

"Application software",
"Data provision and analysis",
"Risk and compliance"
],
"top_level_industry_groups": [
"Information technology, telecommunications and data",
"Safety and security",
"Software"
]These won't be directly replacing our previous sectors so those will continue working with this new release but we recommend moving over to using industries for better data coverage.
Alongside this we have improved our buzzwords, making them available over a larger number of companies and updating some classifications. This update will come through automatically through the buzzword field in the Company API.
