## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Company Master Data + Parent & Ultimate Owner

**Turn any company name, alias or domain into a complete, verified master-data record — identity, statutory IDs, the full ownership chain, and live LinkedIn metrics — in one call.**

Give it `"Myntra"` (or `myntra.com`) and get back: the official registered name, CIN, its **immediate parent** *(Flipkart Internet Private Limited)*, its **ultimate parent** *(Walmart Inc)*, plus website, LinkedIn, followers, employees and HQ — for the company **and** its parents.

---

### ✨ What you get (per company)

| Field | Example |
|---|---|
| **official_name** | Myntra Designs Private Limited |
| **id / id_type** | U72300KA2007PTC041799 · CIN |
| **lei** | 254900V73H400ZE35J15 |
| **website · linkedin** | myntra.com · /company/myntra |
| **followers · employees** | 25,91,000 · 17,949 |
| **hq_city · hq_country** | Bengaluru · India |
| **industry · founded** | Internet · 2007 |
| **parent_type** | ACQUIRED_BY |
| **immediate_parent** | Flipkart Internet Private Limited (+ CIN, LinkedIn, employees, HQ) |
| **ultimate_parent** | Walmart Inc (+ LEI, country, LinkedIn, employees, HQ) |

### 🌳 Parent & ownership intelligence (the differentiator)

Most tools stop at the company. This one maps **who owns whom** and always fills a parent:

- **Subsidiary** → immediate + ultimate parent *(Myntra → Flipkart → Walmart)*
- **Group company** → holding company *(TCS → Tata Sons)*
- **Foreign branch** → India arm + global parent *(Citi India → FCRN → Citigroup)*
- **Government PSU** → flagged `GOVT_OWNED` *(ONGC, BHEL)*
- **Joint venture** → both parents *(Tata AIA → Tata Sons + AIA Group)*
- **Independent / top holding** → marked as its own top entity *(Razorpay, Reliance)*

### 🎯 Why it's accurate (zero-wrong)

- **GLEIF** (global LEI registry) cross-checks every ID and parent
- Every **CIN is reverse-validated** on the web (in `full` mode) — wrong IDs are dropped, never guessed
- Brand → **real legal entity** resolution *(Swiggy → BUNDL Technologies, Nykaa → FSN E-commerce, Groww → Nextbillion Technology)*
- Principle: **blank > wrong** — an unverifiable field is left empty, never fabricated

### 📥 Input — your data, any shape

- **companies** — JSON list of names, domains, or `{name, domain, linkedin}` objects
- **pasteRows** — rows copied straight from Excel / Google Sheets (columns auto-detected)
- **sheetUrl** — a public Google-Sheet / CSV link

### ⚙️ Modes

| Mode | Best for | Speed |
|---|---|---|
| 🟢 **fast** | name + website + LinkedIn only | fastest |
| 🟡 **balanced** *(default)* | identity + parent + enrichment | fast |
| 🔴 **full** | CIN/LLPIN/FCRN that must be 100% verified | thorough |

`enrich` (default on) adds followers / employees / HQ for the company **and** its parents.

### 💡 Use cases

- **Account & lead enrichment** — map a domain list to registered entities + group structure
- **KYC / compliance / due-diligence** — verified CIN/LEI + ultimate beneficial owner chain
- **CRM hygiene & de-duplication** — collapse aliases & subsidiaries under one parent
- **Market & competitor mapping** — see entire corporate groups at a glance

### 📤 Output

One clean dataset row per company (download as JSON, CSV or Excel) with the company's full record plus flattened `immediate_parent_*` and `ultimate_parent_*` columns.

---

*Works for Indian (CIN/LLPIN/FCRN) and global (LEI) entities. India-first, globally aware.*

# Actor input Schema

## `companies` (type: `array`):

A list of companies to resolve. Each item can be: (1) a plain name/alias — "Infosys"; (2) a domain — "infosys.com"; or (3) an object with optional hints: {"name", "domain", "linkedin", "email_domains", "master_id"}. Hints improve accuracy but are not required — a bare name or domain works.
## `pasteRows` (type: `string`):

Paste rows copied straight from Excel or Google Sheets (Ctrl/Cmd+C → paste here). Tab- or comma-separated. Columns are auto-detected — name/company/alias, domain/website, linkedin, email. A header row is optional. Use this when you don't want to build JSON.
## `sheetUrl` (type: `string`):

A public Google-Sheet CSV-export link or any CSV URL. The whole file is downloaded and every row resolved. (Google Sheet → File → Share → Publish to web → CSV, or use the .../export?format=csv link.)
## `mode` (type: `string`):

fast = official name + website + LinkedIn only (cheapest, no parent). balanced = identity + parent + enrichment, GLEIF-verified (recommended). full = additionally reverse-validates every CIN on Google so IDs are zero-wrong (most accurate, a bit slower).
## `enrich` (type: `boolean`):

Add live LinkedIn metrics — followers, employee count and HQ city/country — for the company AND its immediate & ultimate parents. Turn off if you only need the registered identity + IDs.
## `geminiApiKey` (type: `string`):

OPTIONAL. Your own Google AI Studio (Gemini) key. If provided, reasoning runs directly on the Gemini API — far cheaper and uses a strict schema. If left blank, a built-in reasoning path is used automatically (billed to your Apify usage). Get a free key at aistudio.google.com/apikey.
## `workers` (type: `integer`):

How many companies to resolve at once. 6–10 is a good balance of speed vs. rate-limits. Lower it (e.g. 2) if you use a free Gemini key (15 requests/minute limit).

        {
            "name": "Tata Consultancy Services"
        }
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("event-data-api/company-master-data-parent-owner").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
