# Get alerts for watched companies

`GET /watchlist/alerts`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.companystack.co.uk`
- URL: `https://api.companystack.co.uk/watchlist/alerts`
- Auth: one of:
  - HTTP bearer
  - API key in header `X-Api-Key`

Paginated alerts for all watched companies with read/unread status.

## Query parameters

- `alert_type` string
- `company_number` string
- `since` string, date-time
- `until` string, date-time
- `limit` integer
- `offset` integer

## Response `200`

Paginated alerts

## Other responses

- `401`: API key missing, malformed or revoked
- `403`: The key's plan does not include this endpoint (`code: plan_upgrade_required`, with `upgrade_url`), the key may not call it, or the key is beyond the plan's key limit after a downgrade (`code: key_limit_exceeded`: the newest keys are paused until keys are deleted or the plan upgraded)
- `429`: Per-minute or per-day limit reached (`code: rate_limited`, `window: minute|day`). Wait `Retry-After` seconds; when both windows are full the day is reported. A refused request does not count against either limit. A bulk lookup (`POST /company/bulk`) counts each company number in it as one request, so one that is more than you have left is refused whole, and the body adds `requested` and `fits`.
