TODO

• Integrate company registration basic data (application 2) from F05D1060-7D57-4763-BDCE-0DAF5975AFE0

• Integrate business name by number from 855A3C87-003A-4930-AA4B-2F4130D713DC

• Investigate the upstream access restriction for business registrations by name keyword (A1B4CBFF-2D3A-409B-8A78-2AD94F63AE4A): the test endpoint currently returns unauthorized integration IP in this environment

• Investigate the upstream access restriction for branch offices by branch number (23632BB3-5DB7-4423-9643-1D4AC140D479): the test endpoint currently returns unauthorized integration IP in this environment
