Colombia — SIGEP lookup by document

Endpoint

GET https://api.verifik.co/v2/co/sigep/number

The SIGEP directory (Colombian public employment / contracting records) is queried using documentType and documentNumber. The service resolves the person’s identity, then returns directory rows (role, entity, contact, profile link) when matches exist. For lookup by full name only, use SIGEP lookup by name.

Features

• Directory rows: Position, entity, email, phone, and location when published.
• Profile link: Official SIGEP / Función Pública URL when available.
• Legend: May explain empty directory results while the citizen record exists.

Use cases

• Transparency and vendor checks: Confirm public-sector or contractor listings tied to an ID.
• KYB / compliance: Support due diligence on individuals linked to government work.

Notes

• documentType must be CC or NIT for this endpoint (some UIs may show more labels; the API enforces these two).
• If the directory has no rows, the response may still be 200 with an empty records array and a legend message.
