Only the company is mandatory in the input parameter. Rest all can be blank.

matchesReturned can be blank, or any number between 1-3. In case of blank or numbers outside of 1-3, the API will return only the top match. If matchesReturned is set to 2 or 3, API will return up-to 2 or 3 top matches if found.

Providing email, website and address will help improve the accuracy.
