## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

### 🔎 Find public companies from Sales Navigator searches

Sales teams, researchers, and account planners can turn one Sales Navigator company or account search into structured public-company records. Review company names, canonical public company pages, IDs, and available firmographic details in a dataset, with partial enrichment shown when some public fields are not available.

**Try these workflows**

- Turn one Sales Navigator URL into matching public company records with [**Sales Navigator company search**](https://apify.com/maximedupre/sales-navigator-company-search-scraper/examples/sales-navigator-company-search).
- Search public companies by industry and location criteria with [**company search scraper**](https://apify.com/maximedupre/sales-navigator-company-search-scraper/examples/company-search-scraper).
- Refine discovery with a company name or keyword phrase through [**LinkedIn company search**](https://apify.com/maximedupre/sales-navigator-company-search-scraper/examples/linkedin-company-search).
- Run a Sales Navigator account search for public company records with [**Sales Navigator Scraper**](https://apify.com/maximedupre/sales-navigator-company-search-scraper/examples/sales-navigator-scraper).
- Review each match as a company profile record with [**company profile scraper**](https://apify.com/maximedupre/sales-navigator-company-search-scraper/examples/company-profile-scraper).

#### 🧾 Public company records for account research

**What you get**

Each saved dataset row is one matching public company. Rows identify the company with its name, canonical public company page, and public ID. When available, they also include industry, employee count and size, headquarters, website, description, company type, followers, logo, tagline, founded year, and specialties.

The `accessStatus` field is `full` or `partial`, so incomplete public enrichment is clear. If the same public company appears again through another submitted value, the first eligible match is saved and later matches are ignored.

This Actor uses public company data. It does not return private Sales Navigator-only details, buying intent, saved lists, private revenue bands, or other private source data.

#### ▶️ Run a company search

**Run steps**

1. Choose a mode from `findBy`.
2. Paste one Sales Navigator company or account search URL, add industry and location criteria, or add public company-page URLs.
3. Set `Maximum companies` if you want a limit. Leave it empty to return all available records until the source is exhausted.
4. Start the run and open `companyResults` to review the linked company records.

No customer source login is needed for public data. Use a separate run for each search with different settings.

#### ❓ FAQ

##### What happens when the same company appears twice?

The first eligible match is saved. Later matches for the same public company are ignored, even when another submitted value finds it.

##### Why is `accessStatus` sometimes `partial`?

Some public company pages expose fewer fields than others. The row is kept when the company match is valid, and `partial` shows that full public profile data was not available for that row.

##### Can I use a Sales Navigator account search URL?

Yes. Select `salesNavigatorUrl` and paste one Sales Navigator company or account search URL with the filters you want to use.

##### Can I search without a Sales Navigator URL?

Yes. Select `searchCriteria` and add one or more industries and locations. You can also add a company name or keyword phrase.

##### Can I refine a search with a company name or keywords?

Yes. Add `nameOrKeywords` inside `searchCriteria` to refine an industry and location search.

##### Can I pass public company-page URLs?

Yes. Select `companyUrls` and add the public company-page URLs you want to enrich.

##### What does an empty Maximum companies field do?

It returns all available records until the source is exhausted. Set a number when you want a smaller run.

##### Does this return private Sales Navigator data?

No. It uses public company data and does not provide private Sales Navigator-only details, buying intent, saved lists, or private revenue bands.

##### Can I use different searches in one run?

No. Use a separate run for each search with different settings.
