# Florida Companies by Name Keyword (e.g. Roofing)

**Use case:** 

Find active companies registered in Florida whose name contains a word such as ROOFING, DENTAL or PLUMBING, from the Florida Division of Corporations' own data files (includes out-of-state companies registered to do business there). Each record has the document number, name, type, formation date and address. Narrow it by city or ZIP. No officer names. Pay per company.

```json
{
  "documentNumbers": [],
  "names": [],

## About this Actor

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

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 full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/nexgensignal/florida-business-entity-master-records.md

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`).
