## 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

## Norrsyn Allabolag Scraper

Custom Apify actor for [Norrsyn Signal Engine](https://github.com/norrsyn/signal-engine). Scrapes Allabolag.se company listings with **exclusion list** support.

### Why This Exists

The standard Proff/Allabolag scraper (`stealth_mode/proff-bussiness-search-scraper`) works for Nordic searches but has no exclusion list. When Norrsyn runs repeated screenings against a client's TAM (e.g., 12,000 manufacturing companies), the same companies are returned every time. This actor solves that:

- **`exclude_org_numbers`**: Skip companies already in the pipeline
- **Excluded companies don't count toward `max_items_per_url`**
- Requesting "200 new companies" actually returns 200 *new* companies

### How It Works

1. Accepts Allabolag category URLs (both `/branscher/X` and `/bransch-sök?q=X` formats)
2. Fetches pages and extracts company data from Next.js `__NEXT_DATA__` SSR JSON
3. For each company: checks exclusion list → skip if excluded, save if new
4. Paginates until `max_items_per_url` new companies found per URL
5. Outputs in **ProffRecord format** (snake_case) for pipeline compatibility

### Input

```json
{
  "urls": ["https://www.allabolag.se/branscher/tillverkning"],
  "max_items_per_url": 200,
  "exclude_org_numbers": ["5560518812", "5567005961"],
  "max_pages_per_url": 400
}
````

### Output

Each company in the dataset matches the ProffRecord format:

```json
{
  "name": "DENTSPLY IH AB",
  "legal_name": "Dentsply IH AB",
  "orgnr": "5560518812",
  "revenue": "3398955",
  "employees": "378",
  "industries": [{"code": "10005410", "name": "Medicinteknisk utrustning"}],
  "location": {"county": "Västra Götaland", "municipality": "Mölndal"},
  "from_url": "https://www.allabolag.se/bransch-sök?q=tillverkning"
}
```

### Local Development

```bash
npm install
## Create test input
mkdir -p apify_storage/key_value_stores/default
echo '{"urls":["https://www.allabolag.se/branscher/tillverkning"],"max_items_per_url":10}' > apify_storage/key_value_stores/default/INPUT.json
npm start
```

### Deploy

```bash
apify login
apify push
```

# Actor input Schema

## `urls` (type: `array`):

Allabolag search URLs to scrape. Accepts both /branscher/X and /bransch-sök?q=X formats.

## `max_items_per_url` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of NEW companies to return per URL. Excluded companies do NOT count toward this limit.

## `exclude_org_numbers` (type: `array`):

Array of org numbers to skip during scraping. Any format accepted (with/without dashes). These companies will not appear in results and will not count toward max\_items\_per\_url.

## `proxy_configuration` (type: `object`):

Proxy settings. Set useApifyProxy: false for direct access (works from Sweden).

## `max_pages_per_url` (type: `integer`):

Safety limit on number of pages to crawl per search URL. Each page has ~25 companies.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "urls": [
    "https://www.allabolag.se/bransch-s%C3%B6k?q=tillverkning"
  ],
  "max_items_per_url": 100,
  "exclude_org_numbers": [],
  "proxy_configuration": {
    "useApifyProxy": false
  },
  "max_pages_per_url": 400
}
```
