# The insurer(s) carrying one Legal Entity Identifier

`GET /resolve/lei/{lei}.json`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://insurers.global/api/v1`
- URL: `https://insurers.global/api/v1/resolve/lei/{lei}.json`
- Auth: none declared

One file per LEI in the register (ISO 17442, 20 characters, exact match); an LEI not in the register is a 404. Usually one row; a few LEIs sit on two rows because the entity holds a licence in two markets.
