phonenumber string business phone number guidelines for using the api handling multiple businesses with the same trade license due to the absence of a central repository, it is possible for different companies to have the same trade license number under various authorities therefore, we recommend using both the business name and trade license number in the input for more accurate matches improving accuracy with business names when providing both the business name and trade license number, it is advisable to use a keyword or part of the business name rather than the full name this approach tends to yield better accuracy using only business name as input when only the business name is used as input, the ner source matches the name in its database and returns exact matches however, there may be discrepancies between the business name on the trade license document and the names stored in the ner database to address this, we recommend the following remove common suffixes such as "llc," "co," "inc," etc , if no results are found in the ner, "llc" might be stored as "l l c ," "l l l," or "l l c " similarly, other common abbreviations at the end of business names should be removed before passing the input to the api by following these guidelines, you can enhance the accuracy and reliability of the search results when using the api error code response and mapping { "error" { "name" "error", "message" "\\"value\\" must contain at least one of \[businessname, edlicensenumber]", "reason" "validation error", "type" "bad request", "statuscode" "400" } }{ "error" { "name" "error",
