## 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

## Denmark Government Data Search

Search **24 official Danish government data sources** in a single API call — GLEIF LEI entities, Statistics Denmark (StatBank) business, health, property and construction statistics, Danish clinical trials, PlanData building zones and local plans, Folketinget parliament cases and votes, EUR-Lex directives, and TED procurement notices. All data from official Danish government databases through the SIP Public Data Gateway.

### What is Denmark Government Data Search?

Denmark Government Data Search is an Apify Actor that queries official Danish government databases across business, construction, health, legal, and procurement domains. Instead of navigating StatBank, PlanData, Folketinget, and sundhedsdata portals separately, you search them all at once.

The Actor calls the **SIP Public Data Gateway** — a unified API that normalizes responses from 24 Danish data products. No browser, no scraping — just HTTPS API calls.

### Why use Denmark Government Data Search?

- **One search, 24 sources** — Query company data, building zones, health statistics, parliament records, and procurement simultaneously
- **Official government data** — All sources are public databases from Statistics Denmark, PlanData, Folketinget, and Danish health authorities
- **Rich StatBank coverage** — Business demographics, construction activity, property prices, health expenditure, municipal and regional accounts
- **Parliament transparency** — Folketinget cases, votes, and legislative proceedings
- **Nordic market entry** — Essential data for companies entering the Danish/Nordic market

#### Use cases

### How to search Danish data

1. Open the Actor in Apify Console
2. Enter search terms (e.g. "Novo Nordisk", "København", "bolig", "sundhed")
3. Select data categories — business, construction, and health are on by default
4. Click **Start** — the Actor queries all enabled sources in parallel
5. Download results as JSON, CSV, or Excel

#### Example input

```json
{
  "searchTerms": ["Novo Nordisk", "Maersk"],
  "includeBusiness": true,
  "includeConstruction": false,
  "includeHealth": false,
  "includeLegal": false,
  "includeProcurement": false,
  "maxResultsPerSource": 50
}
````

### Output

```json
{
  "legal_name": "Novo Nordisk A/S",
  "lei": "549300I6KHWHOQO2XR19",
  "entity_status": "ACTIVE",
  "_product_id": "dk_gleif_lei",
  "_source": "gleif_lei",
  "_search_term": "Novo Nordisk",
  "_collected_at": "2026-04-08T14:00:00Z"
}
```

### How much does it cost?

Pay-per-event pricing at $3.00 per 1,000 records returned.

- **Company lookup** (1 term, business only): ~$0.01–0.03
- **Full scan** (3 terms, all 24 sources): ~$0.30–2.00

No browser overhead. Control costs with `maxResultsPerSource`.

### Data sources (24 Danish products)

| Category | Sources | Count |
|----------|---------|-------|
| Business | GLEIF LEI, StatBank business, business aggregate | 3 |
| Construction | PlanData (zones/local plans), StatBank (construction/property), construction aggregate | 5 |
| Health | Clinical trials, StatBank (health/expenditure/demographics), WHO indicators, health aggregate | 6 |

### FAQ

**Does it support Danish search terms?**
Yes. SIP passes terms directly to Danish APIs. StatBank and PlanData support Danish. GLEIF and EUR-Lex work with English.

**What is StatBank?**
Statistics Denmark's statistical database (statistikbanken.dk) — the national statistics office providing detailed socioeconomic data across 2,000+ tables.

**Can I access municipal-level data?**
Yes. StatBank municipal accounts and PlanData local plans provide kommune-level granularity.

### Use as MCP Tool (AI Agent Integration)

This Actor works as an MCP tool — AI agents (Claude, GPT, Cursor) can discover and run it automatically.

#### Quick setup (Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code)

Add to your MCP config:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apify": {
      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

Then ask your AI: *"Search for Novo Nordisk in Danish government databases"*

#### Direct API call

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient
client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("lentic_clockss/denmark-data-search").call(
    run_input={"searchTerms": ["Novo Nordisk"], "maxResultsPerSource": 50}
)
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item)
```
