FAQ

Do I need a BODACC API key or a SIRENE account? No. BODACC publishes its data through the free OpenDataSoft open-data portal. This actor wraps that API directly — no key, no quota, no signup beyond your Apify account.

Why are today's announcements missing? BODACC publishes T+1 to T+3 days behind the actual filing or jugement date. Always query with at least a 3-day lookback to get full daily coverage.

Why is maxResults capped at 10,000? OpenDataSoft enforces a hard offset ceiling of 10,000 per query. For larger pulls, slice your job by dateFrom / dateTo windows (e.g. one month per run) or by department.

What's the difference between this and the official BODACC RSS feed? The RSS gives raw flat text — no SIREN parsing, no capital, no dirigeants. This actor parses the nested listepersonnes, acte, jugement JSON sub-fields and flattens them into clean top-level columns ready for a CRM, a notebook, or a spreadsheet.

Can I get just one company's BODACC history? Yes — pass the 9-digit siren parameter. You get every announcement ever filed for that SIREN, newest first.

I need help or a custom slice. Open an issue on the Issues tab or message the author through Apify.
