Features

• Directory search: Name-based lookup against the SIGEP web directory.
• Rich rows: Entity, role, email, phone, and location when published.
• Profile links: Official Función Pública URLs when present.

Use cases

• Discovery: Find officials or contractors when you do not have an ID number.
• Contact and verification: Retrieve published contact metadata for due diligence or transparency workflows.

Notes

• fullName is required; omitting it typically yields 409 MissingParameter.
• 200 with an empty records array and a legend message is possible when no directory matches are returned.
• The upstream SIGEP service may occasionally be unavailable; errors are surfaced as 409 with Endpoint_out_of_service when applicable.
