FAQ and limits

• Source: the official BODACC open-data API (DILA), the same data published on bodacc.fr. Commercial announcements only (BODACC series A, B and C).
• Text is in French, as published.
• The siret field holds the 9-digit SIREN, the company identifier BODACC publishes; it is not the 14-digit establishment SIRET.
• How far back? The open data starts in January 2008 (51M+ announcements); set startDate to reach older notices.
• Need another field or filter? Open an issue on the Issues tab.
