SIC Acts

The Superintendencia de Industria y Comercio (SIC) keeps a register of the acts it issues: about 144,000 resoluciones from its investigations (consumer protection, personal data and habeas data, telecommunications users, technical regulations and legal metrology, chambers of commerce, cobro coactivo) and about 136,000 sentencias from its jurisdictional delegation, the country’s largest consumer-law court. Each act here comes with its number, date and issuing office, the case it belongs to, what it decided as the Superintendencia classifies it, its parties with their role and identification, its full text and a copy of its document. Search by a party’s identification number (a NIT or a cédula) to see every act that names it, or by case, office, type, date, or free text over the body, the parties and the decisions. The register loads new acts two or three times a month, some dated months back; they appear here the day after.

The whole source, organized and ready to query: every endpoint on this page answers in milliseconds. Every response carries as_of: how current the data is. How datasets work.

        "type": "resolution",
        "issued_from": "2025-01-01"
      }'

Returns as_of (how current the data is), the applied filters, total and total_is_exact, page, per_page, total_pages, count and results[], most recent first. Every result carries id (the act’s permanent number in the register), act_id, type (resolution, judgment or other) and type_label, number, issued_at, office (the office that issued it), case_number (the radicado, e.g. 24-449511), decisions[] (class, name, act_type: what the act decides, as the Superintendencia classifies it), parties[] (name, role, document_type, document_number, and the representative’s representative_name, representative_document_type, representative_document_number), party_document_numbers[], file_name, registered_at, modified_at, text_status (ok, scanned or missing), document_url (Croma’s copy of the act’s PDF, byte for byte as the Superintendencia published it), source_document_url (always null: the Superintendencia offers no permanent link to the document) and document_bytes.

Search results leave out the text; query still matches it. Read the text itself with the SIC Act endpoint.

One act, in full

POST /co/sic-actos/act/v1 Dataset

Field	Type	Notes
`act_id`	string	Required. The act’s `id` from a search result, e.g. `2681688`.
`offset`	integer	First character of the text to return. Pass the previous response’s `next_offset` to read on. Default `0`.
`limit`	integer	How many characters of the text to return. Most acts fit in one response. Default `200000`.

curl https://api.croma.run/co/sic-actos/act/v1 \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $CROMA_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "act_id": "2681688" }'

Returns as_of, found, act_id and act, which carries everything the search returns plus content: a window onto the act’s full text, with text, offset, total_length, has_more and next_offset. Every result carries id (the act’s permanent number in the register), act_id, type (resolution, judgment or other) and type_label, number, issued_at, office (the office that issued it), case_number (the radicado, e.g. 24-449511), decisions[] (class, name, act_type: what the act decides, as the Superintendencia classifies it), parties[] (name, role, document_type, document_number, and the representative’s representative_name, representative_document_type, representative_document_number), party_document_numbers[], file_name, registered_at, modified_at, text_status (ok, scanned or missing), document_url (Croma’s copy of the act’s PDF, byte for byte as the Superintendencia published it), source_document_url (always null: the Superintendencia offers no permanent link to the document) and document_bytes.

An id the register does not hold returns found: false with HTTP 200, not an error.
