## Collection using IDs

Examples in this article are prepared using Postman. However, you can use the most convenient tool for you: terminal, Postman, or any API-compatible application.

### cURL (Postman)

Paste the numeric company ID instead of `{company_id}` and API Key instead of `{API Key}` in the request template:

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Full collect" %}
{% code title="cURL request template" %}

```json
curl -X 'GET' \
'https://api.coresignal.com/cdapi/v2/company_multi_source/collect/{company_id}' \
 -H  "accept: application/json" 
 -H  "apikey: {API Key}"
```

{% endcode %}
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Field selection" %}
{% code title="cURL request example with several fields" %}

```json
curl -X 'GET' \
'https://api.coresignal.com/cdapi/v2/company_multi_source/collect/{company_id}?fields=id&fields=company_name' \
 -H  "accept: application/json" 
 -H  "apikey: {API Key}"
```

{% endcode %}
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

## Collection using shorthand names

Examples in this article are prepared using Postman. However, you can use the most convenient tool for you: terminal, Postman, or any API-compatible application.

### cURL (Postman)

Use the provided request template below. Enter a valid `profile_url` or `shorthand_name` value and your `API Key`.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Full collect" %}
{% code title="cURL request template" %}

```json
curl -X GET "https://api.coresignal.com/cdapi/v2/company_multi_source/collect/{profile_url/shorthand_name}"
 -H  "accept: application/json" 
 -H  "apikey: {API Key}"
```

{% endcode %}
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Field selection" %}
{% code title="cURL request example with several fields" %}

```json
curl -X GET "https://api.coresignal.com/cdapi/v2/company_multi_source/collect/{profile_url/shorthand_name}?fields=id&fields=company_name"
 -H  "accept: application/json" 
 -H  "apikey: {API Key}"
```

{% endcode %}
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

## Bundles collect

By default, a collect request returns the full company data. To request only a portion of the data, use the `bundle` query parameter. The `bundle` parameter can be repeated – include it once for each bundle to combine multiple bundles. Accepted values:

{% hint style="info" %}
The `bundle` parameter is optional, and omitting it returns the full record.
{% endhint %}

<table><thead><tr><th width="269.93359375">Requested bundle</th><th width="319.765625">Bundle value - query parameter name</th><th>Credit amount</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><a href="/company-data/bundles/core.md">Core company data</a></td><td><code>core_company_data</code></td><td>10</td></tr><tr><td><a href="/company-data/bundles/financial-information.md">Financial information</a></td><td><code>financial_information</code></td><td>4</td></tr><tr><td><a href="/company-data/bundles/company-growth-signals.md">Growth signals</a></td><td><code>growth_signals</code></td><td>2</td></tr><tr><td><a href="/company-data/bundles/workforce-intelligence.md">Workforce intelligence</a></td><td><code>workforce_intelligence</code></td><td>2</td></tr><tr><td><a href="/company-data/bundles/company-intelligence.md">Company intelligence</a></td><td><code>company_intelligence</code></td><td>2</td></tr></tbody></table>

{% code title="cURL request example with bundles" %}

```json
curl -X 'GET' \
'https://api.coresignal.com/cdapi/v2/company_multi_source/collect/{company_id}?bundle=core_company_data&bundle=financial_information' \
 -H  "accept: application/json" 
 -H  "apikey: {API Key}"
```

{% endcode %}

The `fields` parameter narrows the results within the selection. If a field is outside the selected bundles, the request returns a `400` error identifying the bundle that owns the field.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.coresignal.com/company-data/api/collect.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `build a script that syncs our docs to a CMS` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
