EntityIdentifier

close: schema:identifier

An external identifier for an entity — ticker, ISIN, FIGI, CIK or registry number. Separate from Entity because an entity legitimately carries many identifiers, and because each one has its own validity interval: tickers get reassigned and registry numbers get superseded.

Slots

slotrangedescription
dataco_idstringrequiredCertvas entity identifier — a deterministic hash of the LEI where one exists, else a ULID. Stable across rebuilds, which is what lets it be a public, citable identifier.
id_typeIdentifierTypeEnumrequiredWhich identifier scheme id_value belongs to.
id_valuestringrequiredThe identifier itself, as issued.
exchange_micstringoptionalISO 10383 Market Identifier Code, where the identifier is exchange-scoped. Null for scheme-global identifiers such as ISIN.
observed_atdatetimerequiredWhen Certvas itself observed this value. Never a proxy for publication date.
source_refstringrequiredURL or document-hash pointer into the immutable raw archive.
license_classstringrequiredLicense Register ID governing redistribution of THIS row. Per-row rather than per-table because a single table legitimately mixes sources with different terms.
valid_fromdaterequiredStart of the interval over which this assertion holds.
valid_todateoptionalEnd of the validity interval; NULL means current. Half-open, so `valid_from <= t < valid_to` selects without double-counting the boundary.
