Companies
An object to represent businesses: customers, partners, peers...
api_slug: companies
singular_noun: Company
plural_noun: Companies
The company object is available in every Attio workspace. Companies represent businesses, such as customers, partners, suppliers, etc.
When creating a person, a related company record will automatically be generated or matched based on the domain of the person's email address, but they can also be created manually via the web application or the API.
Company records are enriched, which means that Attio will automatically populate additional attributes, and those enriched values cannot be overridden by API users. Additionally, some enriched attributes may be hidden from the API depending on the workspace billing plan.
Writable attributes
The following attributes can always be read and written using the API:
| Attribute | Slug | Type | Traits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Domains | domains | Domain | Unique, multiselect |
| Name | name | Text | |
| Description | description | Text | |
| Team | team | Record reference | Relationship, inverse of Person -> company, multiselect |
| Categories | categories | Select | Multiselect |
| Primary location | primary_location | Location | |
| AngelList | angellist | Text | |

| Associated deals | associated_deals | Record reference | Relationship, inverse of Deal -> associated_companies (only visible if Deals activated |
| Associated workspaces | associated_workspaces | Record reference | Relationship, inverse of Workspace -> company (only visible if Workspaces activated) |
Example: asserting a company
Company has a single unique attribute, domains, which can be used to either create a new company if there is none with a matching value, or update an existing company record. Other unique attributes can also be added and used for assertion if desired.
