Hello,

Before I start to write my own code, I’d like to ask about the following.

Has Companies House already open sourced code that reads the company and officer records from the Snapshot files, and that processes the mutations from the Updates files?

I have not yet found a repository on the CompaniesHouse Github page.

Thank you.

Best, Paddy

No, we have not open sourced code that reads the company and officer records from the Snapshot files.
