# List recently created companies

As a Reseller you list or count companies created in a recent period for billing, onboarding reports, or growth metrics. Use a credential with Client Role = **Reseller**. Call company search with **`orderBy: "CreateTime"`** and **`ascending: false`** to get newest first; use **`filter`** with a date range on creation date if the API supports it. Total count is in the response or sum across pages.

***

## POST /api/companies/search

Returns a paginated list of companies. Set **`orderBy: "CreateTime"`** and **`ascending: false`** to list newest companies first. Optionally use **`filter`** to restrict by creation date range (see Endpoints → **Company** for supported filter fields). The response total count gives the number of companies matching the criteria; paginate through all pages if you need a full list or count for a period.

> Retrieves a list of all companies. Use orderBy CreateTime and ascending false to list recently created companies first; use filter for a date range if supported.
