Pre-Validation Of PermIDs?
Hi,
Is there a way to determine what level a PermID is before submitting a request(s) to the relevant templates, either through the structure/range of the PermID (numeric) or if not, through an API request maybe some type of pre-validate option, though the below doesn't work for this entity-level PermID:
POST
/Extractions/InstrumentListValidateIdentifiers
/Extractions/EntityListValidateIdentifiers
{
"InputsForValidation": [
{
"Identifier": "4295904307",
"IdentifierType": "Pid"
}
],
"KeepDuplicates": false
}
Appears to be the best solution I could find to-date, but I just wondered if there was something more specific to pre-validating PermIDs via a single request via DSS, or via maybe 'Symbology API' if there's no option via DSS for this ask specifically.
Many thanks,
Gareth
Hi Gareth @gteage,
Is this info included on permid.org, do we see it either within Organization Details or in Organizations fields spec? I do not find it, but thinking that it may be called a different name?
This would allow us to know what we are looking for in DSS reference.
Hello @gteage,
I think some of the level info can be derived via EntitySearch, for example:
{
{protocol}}{
{host}}{
{api}}Search/EntitySearch
{
"SearchRequest": {
"Identifier": "4295904307",
"IdentifierType": "Pid",
"Name": null,
"OfficialNameOnly": false,
"DomicileCodes": null,
"CountryOfIncorporationCodes": null,
"TrBusinessClassificationCodes": null,
"VerifiedOnly": false,
"RegulatedOnly": false,
"IssuersOnly": false,
"ActiveOnly": false,
"IncludeUnManagedOrUnVerified": false,
"PreferredIdentifierType": "Ric"
}
}
resulting in
{
"@odata.context": "https://selectapi.datascope.refinitiv.com/RestApi/v1/$metadata#Collection(DataScope.Select.Api.Content.ValidatedEntity)",
"value": [
{
"@odata.type": "#DataScope.Select.Api.Search.EntitySearchResult",
"Identifier": "18228",
"IdentifierType": "OrgId",
"Key": "VjF8MHgwMDAzZWYwNmMxNzIyYzc1fEVORU58MTgyMjh8T1JH",
"Description": "INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATION",
"InstrumentType": "Entity",
"Type": "Business Organization",
"Domicile": "United States",
"CountryOfIncorporation": "United States",
"ParentOrgId": "18228",
"UltimateParentOrgId": "18228"
}
]
}
Hope this helps
