Returns the registered owner(s) (name and identification number), the vehicle characteristics (brand, line, model year, class, body, color, VIN, engine/chassis/serial numbers), the traffic-license and import records, SOAT and técnico-mecánica (RTM) history, any accident on record, recent and pending procedures (trámites), and guarantee/lien and ownership-limitation summaries. `found: false` when the plate has no record. Supports async delivery: set `Prefer: wait=N` for an inline result, pass `callback_url` to receive a POST when ready, or poll `GET /jobs/{id}`. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /api-reference/openapi.json post /co/runt/vehicle-history-by-plate/v1 openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Croma Marketplace API version: 1.0.0 description: >- Government-data APIs for Colombia, Peru, and global web search.
