GLEIF API

The GLEIF API is a simple library to perform a GLEIF LEI Search 2.0

Usage

The API must be intialized, and a search can be performed as follows:

Simple use:

    GleifApi.GleifCommunicator communicator = new GleifApi.GleifCommunicator();
    string lei = "506700GE1G29325QX363";
    IEnumerable<GleifApi.LeiRecord> records = await comm.GetLeiRecordAsync(lei);

Using IHttpClientFactory with dotnet core dependency injection:

    GleifApi.GleifCommunicator communicator = new GleifApi.GleifCommunicator(httpClientFactory);
    string lei = "506700GE1G29325QX363";
    IEnumerable<GleifApi.LeiRecord> records = await comm.GetLeiRecordAsync(lei);
