| Exposure | public |
| MCP tool | `entities_get` |
| Documentation | https://www.agentdatasets.com/docs/tools/entities_get |

## Description

Fetch one current GLEIF Level-1 legal-entity profile.

The scalar envelope returns legal and previous names, jurisdiction,
entity and registration status, legal/HQ address country and region,
registration authority identifiers, `source: gleif`, and `as_of`.
`meta.unit` is `entity_record`, `meta.period` is `current`, and
`pagination` is null. Use `entities_search` first unless another tool
already returned the exact LEI. `funds_get_holdings` supplies this join
key at `data.holdings[].issuer_lei`. Example:
`lei="HWUPKR0MPOU8FGXBT394"`.
`bad_parameter` means malformed LEI; `unknown_entity` means no Level-1
profile is held. GLEIF data is CC0.

## Parameters

Input schema advertised to MCP clients and mirrored by the REST query string.

| Parameter | In | Type | Required | Default | Constraints | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| lei | input | `string` | yes | — | — | Exact uppercase 20-character LEI from entities_search or from funds_get_holdings data.holdings[].issuer_lei. |
