🏦 Brazil BNDES Financing Operations

One structured funding_record per record from the official public source, logged-out. Public, robots-honoured.

Difference: one funding_record per BNDES financing operation (CNPJ, organization, project, amounts, dates) from the official open-data CSV; the current file is discovered from the dataset page, never a pasted URL, and /api/ is never touched.

Output is one bndes_financing_operation row per result; billing is pay-per-event, the value event being one funding_record (a $0.02 start fee per run, then $0.05 per funding_record). Source: dadosabertos.bndes.gov.br.

No login, no API key and no CAPTCHA solving are involved: the source is read logged-out with an identified contact User-Agent.

What you get

One funding_record per entity, deduplicated on the source-native id. Fields the source does not publish are honest null. A run_receipt row carries the source URL, scope, reconciliation counts, and delivered/duplicate totals.

Every run also writes a RUN_RECEIPT record to its key-value store with the source checks it made and the counts it charged — diagnostics never land in the paid dataset.

⚙️ Sample inputs

1. Quick start — the Store example (this is what the sample above came from)

{
  "maxRecords": 10,
  "fileKey": "nao-automaticas"
}

The sample run charged exactly: 1 × $0.02 apify-actor-start + 10 × $0.05 funding_record = $0.52 on the Free tier — every delivered row was billed.

2. A smaller, narrowed run

{
  "maxRecords": 5,
  "fileKey": "nao-automaticas"
}

Caps the run at 5 rows — about $0.27 on the Free tier ($0.02 start + 5 × $0.05). fileKey narrows what the source is asked for.

3. A full-size run

{
  "maxRecords": 5000,
  "fileKey": "nao-automaticas"
}

Up to 5000 rows (the schema default for maxRecords) — about $250.02 on the Free tier ($0.02 start + 5000 × $0.05) if the source has that many.

🔧 How it works

Transport. Plain HTTPS from the Apify platform, no proxy. robots.txt is read first and a disallowed path is never fetched. Every request carries an identified contact User-Agent.

Charging. Each funding_record is charged at the moment it is pushed (funding_record); a row that fails to charge is not delivered, so the dataset count always equals the charged count.

How it behaves

The BNDES dataset page is read to discover the current CSV, which is then streamed (Latin-1, semicolon) and bounded to maxRecords. Portuguese text and BRL amounts are preserved verbatim. A missing file, header drift, or /api/ path is refused/fails loud.

💰 Pricing example

Event	Free	Bronze	Silver	Gold
Actor Start (apify-actor-start)	$0.02	$0.02	$0.02	$0.02
funding_record (funding_record)	$0.05	$0.04	$0.04	$0.03

Worked at the live Free-tier price:

• 8 funding_records: $0.02 start + 8 × $0.05 = $0.42
• 25 funding_records: $0.02 start + 25 × $0.05 = $1.27
• 5000 funding_records: $0.02 start + 5000 × $0.05 = $250.02

A run that delivers zero rows charges the $0.02 start fee only. A BLOCKED run (source refused) fails loud and charges no value event. The start fee is charged once per GB of run memory; the default run memory is 1024 MB.

Yield on the sample run: NORMAL: 10 unique rows (0 duplicates collapsed) from None. billable=10. maxRecords is a hard ceiling on what is delivered and billed, never a target.

⚖️ Legal & ToS

This actor reads public, logged-out pages and feeds published by dadosabertos.bndes.gov.br. It collects only what the source publishes to any visitor, keeps to the source's robots rules (checked on every run), identifies itself with a contact User-Agent, and does not access accounts, private data or anything behind authentication. Use the output in line with the source's terms and your local law; the intended use is B2B research and monitoring.

❓ FAQ

Q: Do I need an API key or a login?
A: No. The source (dadosabertos.bndes.gov.br) is read logged-out; the input schema has no key field and the actor carries no secrets.

Q: Why did my run return 0 rows?
A: Read the run's status message. GENUINE_EMPTY means the source was read and had nothing in scope for your input; BLOCKED means the source refused and the run failed without billing a value event — retry later or narrow the input. A zero-row run bills the start fee only.

Q: How many rows can one run return?
A: Up to maxRecords (default 5000). Raise the cap for a bigger run; you pay per delivered row.

Q: How fresh is the data?
A: Every run reads the source live at run time; nothing is cached between runs. Put it on a schedule for a continuous feed.

Q: What formats can I export?
A: The dataset downloads as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML or RSS from the run's Dataset tab or the Apify API, and any run can push to a webhook or integration.

Q: How is this different from the other public funding registries actors?
A: Same output shape and billing model; this one covers dadosabertos.bndes.gov.br. The siblings under Related Actors cover the other sources or slices — run several on one schedule for a combined feed.

Q: Are there rate limits?
A: The actor paces itself against the source and honours its robots rules; there is no per-buyer limit beyond your Apify plan's concurrency.

🆘 Troubleshooting

• Run FAILED with BLOCKED → the source refused the request or changed its page shape → nothing was billed beyond the start fee; retry after a while, and if it persists open an Issue with the run id.
• Status says CAPPED → your cap (maxRecords) was reached → raise it for a bigger run.
• Input validation error on start → a field is outside the schema's allowed values → start from the Quick start block and change one field at a time.
• Run TIMED-OUT → a very wide request on a slow day → raise the run timeout in Run options or narrow the input; what was delivered before the timeout is still in the dataset.
