Recipes: from a name you know to the exact endpoint
Real tasks that combine endpoints. You don't need to know our data model — discover the entity by its sigla, then filter by its id.
Everything the Treasury (SHCP) publishes — Mexico
# 1 — "Hacienda" is stored as SHCP. Resolve the name to its id, once.
curl -H "X-API-Key: dpr_live_..." \
"https://api.dapper.com/v1/entities?country_code=MX" \
| jq '.[] | select(.name == "SHCP")'
# → { "id": 145, "name": "SHCP",
# "long_name": "Secretaría de Hacienda y Crédito Público" }# 2 — Every regulation it issued since January, newest first (paginate
# with meta.next_cursor).
curl -H "X-API-Key: dpr_live_..." \
"https://api.dapper.com/v1/regulations?entity_id=145&since=2026-01-01&limit=100"The name changed: find CONAMER (stored as COFEMER)
# 1 — The name you know may have changed. CONAMER is stored under its
# former sigla COFEMER — find it by matching the long name.
curl -H "X-API-Key: dpr_live_..." \
"https://api.dapper.com/v1/entities?country_code=MX" \
| jq '.[] | select(.long_name | test("Mejora Regulatoria"; "i"))'
# → { "id": 323, "name": "COFEMER", ... }# 2 — Filter regulations by that entity id.
curl -H "X-API-Key: dpr_live_..." \
"https://api.dapper.com/v1/regulations?entity_id=323"New regulations across several countries at once
# 1 — New regulations across several countries in a single call.
curl -H "X-API-Key: dpr_live_..." \
"https://api.dapper.com/v1/regulations?country_code=MX,CO,CL&since=2026-07-01&limit=100"# 2 — Keep paging with the cursor from the previous meta.next_cursor.
curl -H "X-API-Key: dpr_live_..." \
"https://api.dapper.com/v1/regulations?country_code=MX,CO,CL&cursor=eyJpZCI6..."Don't know the endpoint? Search by meaning
# 1 — Don't know the endpoint? Search the whole corpus by meaning.

--data-urlencode "q=regulación de inteligencia artificial" \

The highest-volume issuing entities per country. These siglas and names are exactly what the API returns, so you can look up the source you already know.
Don't see your entity? The full live list is at GET /v1/entities?country_code={code}. Look it up by its sigla (name) or full name (long_name) and use its id in the entity_id filter. Note: the historical sigla sometimes differs from the current name (e.g. CONAMER is stored as COFEMER).
