## 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

## Spain Registro Mercantil Scraper

Search Spanish companies by name and pull directory metadata from einforma.com's free public profiles. Useful for KYC/KYB enrichment and Spanish B2B prospecting.

### What You Get

For each company matched on einforma:

- **Legal name** — denomination as registered (`INDITEX SA`, `BANCO SANTANDER S.A.`, etc.)
- **Legal form** — Forma Jurídica (`Sociedad anónima`, `Sociedad limitada`, `Sociedad anónima unipersonal`, `Comunidad de bienes`, etc.)
- **Status** — `activa`, `extinguida`, `en concurso`, `en liquidación` (parsed from name suffix)
- **Address** — Domicilio social, municipio, province, postal code
- **CNAE 2009** code + description (industry classification)
- **Objeto social** — stated company purpose
- **Last filed accounts year** — most recent year of accounts deposited at the Registro Mercantil
- **Has filed accounts** boolean
- **Profile URL** — direct link to the einforma page

### Search

Pass a company name, brand, or anagrama in `query`. einforma matches against denomination, marca, anagrama, and antigua denominación — so `Inditex` returns the parent (INDITEX SA / INDUSTRIA DE DISEÑO TEXTIL SA), the brand (Inditex), the e-commerce sub (FASHION RETAIL SAU), and several extinct subsidiaries.

The `province` input narrows results to a Spanish province by case-insensitive substring match (e.g. `Madrid`, `Barcelona`, `Coruña`, `Valencia`).

### What's NOT Included

- **NIF/CIF (tax ID)** — einforma masks the NIF on cloud-served detail pages (e.g. shown as `A286...`). The output field is empty when masked.
- **Capital Social, Fecha Constitución, Administradores, BORME corporate acts** — present on einforma's older HTML layout but absent from the layout served to most cloud IPs. Output fields stay empty when not present (schema is forward-compatible).
- **Detailed financials** — revenue (Ingresos de explotación), EBITDA, net income value, total assets, equity (Patrimonio neto). All paywalled on every public Spanish company-data source we surveyed. Reserved fields are kept in the schema for forward-compatibility but stay empty.
- **Beneficial Owners (UBO)** — Spain's UBO registry (Registro de Titularidades Reales) is not yet a public open dataset.
- **Cuentas Anuales PDFs** — paid via Registradores (€6-15 each) at sede.registradores.org.

For full data including financials and unmasked NIF, customers buy an einforma report directly (€1-30 per company) or subscribe to Bureau van Dijk SABI / axesor.

### Pricing

Pay-Per-Event: $0.10 per run start + $0.001 per company record.

### Input

- **Query Mode**: `by_name` (only mode supported in v1)
- **Search Query**: free-text — company name, brand, or anagrama
- **Province Filter**: optional — narrows to a Spanish province
- **Include Last-Accounts Metadata**: extracts `latest_accounts_year` and `has_filed_accounts`
- **Include Most-Recent BORME Act**: extracts the single most-recent BORME corporate act (when einforma surfaces it on the layout served)
- **Max Items**: 1-20 (einforma returns at most 20 candidates per search)
- **Proxy**: defaults to Apify residential ES proxy (required — einforma rate-limits aggressively per-IP)

### Limitations

- v1 supports `by_name` only. NIF/CIF, administrator, and CNAE-code search modes require JS-rendered AJAX search forms on einforma; out of scope for this version.
- einforma returns up to 20 results per search; pagination is JS-driven and not implemented.
- Field availability depends on which einforma HTML layout is served. The actor handles both known layouts and emits whichever fields are extractable; missing fields are empty rather than absent from the record.

### Source

- einforma.com free public profiles (no auth, no CAPTCHA, no Cloudflare)
- Apify residential ES proxy — einforma rate-limits per-IP

# Actor input Schema

## `sp_intended_usage` (type: `string`):

Please describe how you plan to use the data extracted by this crawler.
## `sp_improvement_suggestions` (type: `string`):

Provide any feedback or suggestions for improvements.
## `sp_contact` (type: `string`):

Provide your email address so we can get in touch with you.
## `mode` (type: `string`):

Search mode. v1 supports by_name only; einforma's free public search indexes denominations, marcas, anagramas, and parent-company names. NIF/CIF, administrator, and CNAE-code modes require JS-rendered search forms and are out of scope for v1.
## `query` (type: `string`):

Company name, brand, or parent-company name (e.g. 'Inditex', 'Telefonica', 'Banco Santander'). einforma matches denomination, marca, anagrama, and antigua denominación.
## `province` (type: `string`):

Filter results by Spanish province (case-insensitive substring match; e.g. 'Madrid', 'Barcelona', 'Coruña'). Leave empty to return all provinces.
## `includeAccounts` (type: `boolean`):

Extract last filed accounts year, has_filed_accounts flag, administradores list, and net-income sign from the einforma free page. Detailed P&L numbers (revenue, EBITDA, equity) are paywalled on every public source — those fields stay empty in the output regardless of this flag. Schema is forward-compatible if a paid-tier source is added later.
## `includeBorme` (type: `boolean`):

Extract the single most-recent BORME corporate act (date + type) from the einforma free page. Multi-year BORME history requires a dedicated BORME PDF parser and is not in this v1.
## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of company records to return. einforma search returns up to 20 candidates per query; for higher volumes, run multiple narrower queries.
## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Apify proxy configuration. einforma rate-limits aggressively per-IP (HTTP 429 after a small burst); Apify residential ES proxy is required for reliable runs and is enabled by default.
