# Contraloría Chile Dictamen

> Retrieve one dictamen of Chile's Contraloría General de la República by its `id` from a search result (e.g. `E152884N21`), its `official_url`, or its number and year (`E152884/2021`): its full text, subject, descriptors, legal sources, criterion, status flags, the earlier dictámenes it acts on and the later ones that act on it. The text comes back a character range at a time (`offset`, `limit`); follow `next_offset` until `has_more` is false.

**Dataset endpoint**: answers from the whole source in milliseconds and carries `as_of`.

  description: >-
    Government-data APIs for Colombia, Peru, Mexico, United States, Brazil, El
    Salvador, Bolivia, Japan, and Chile, plus global web search. Croma
    normalizes public-sector data into structured JSON for product teams and AI
    agents.


    Every operation is a POST with a JSON body and an organization API key as a
    bearer token; every operation is an idempotent lookup and accepts an
    optional `Idempotency-Key` header. Paths carry their major version (`/v1`);
    the versioning and deprecation policy, including the `Deprecation` and
    `Sunset` headers a retiring endpoint sends, is at
    https://docs.usecroma.com/versioning. Rate limits are per organization and
    reported on every response (`RateLimit-Policy`, `X-RateLimit-*`):

        Optional client-chosen key for this request (any string up to 255
        characters, e.g. a UUID). Every Croma operation is an idempotent lookup:
        repeating a request with the same body returns the same result and
        creates nothing, so retrying after a timeout or network failure is
        always safe. The key is echoed back in the `Idempotency-Key` response
        header so you can correlate a retry with its first attempt. Each attempt
        that reaches the API counts against the rate limit.
