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.

Look up a company by name or by its business ID (Y-tunnus) and get the business ID, current and historical names, company form, industry, status, addresses, website and tax and trade register memberships. No login, no API key and no proxy setup on your side. Point it at a single business ID for a full profile, or run a broad name or industry search and collect thousands of companies in one go. Results are returned as structured data you can export to JSON, CSV or Excel, or pull straight into your own workflow. ### What you get For every matching company: | Field | Description | | --- | --- | | `businessId` | Finnish business ID (Y-tunnus), e.g. `0112038-9` | | `euId` | European unique identifier, when assigned | | `name` | Current registered company name | | `companyForm` | Legal form in English, e.g. `Public limited company`, `Private limited company`, `Sole trader`, `Non-profit association` | | `companyFormCode` | Company form code on record | | `status` | `Active` or `Ceased` | | `industryCode` | Main line of business code (Finnish TOL 2008 classification) | | `industry` | Main line of business label in English | | `registrationDate` | Date the company was first registered (`YYYY-MM-DD`) | | `endDate` | Date the company ceased, when applicable | | `website` | Registered website address, when published | | `city` | Home city / municipality | | `visitingAddress` | Visiting address object (street, building, post code, city, municipality code, full address) | | `postalAddress` | Postal address object (street or PO box, post code, city, municipality code, full address) | | `vatRegistered` | Whether the company is currently in the VAT register | | `prepaymentRegistered` | Whether the company is currently in the prepayment register | | `employerRegistered` | Whether the company is currently in the employer register | | `lastModified` | When the source record was last updated | | `scrapedAt` | ISO timestamp of collection | With **Fetch full details** enabled, each record is expanded with: | Field | Description | | --- | --- | | `names` | Full name history: primary, parallel and auxiliary names, each with its dates | | `companyForms` | Company form history with dates | | `addresses` | Every registered address, fully broken down | | `registeredEntries` | Every tax and trade register entry: register, status, authority and dates | | `companySituations` | Special situations on record (e.g. bankruptcy, liquidation), when present | Missing values are returned as `null`. Nothing is invented. ### Input | Field | Type | Default | Description | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | `query` | string (required) | `nokia` | Company name (or part of it), or a full business ID such as `0112038-9`. Business IDs are detected and looked up directly. | | `city` | string | (none) | Restrict results to a city or municipality, e.g. `Helsinki`. | | `companyForm` | string | (none) | Restrict to a company form code, e.g. `OY`, `OYJ`, `TMI`, `AY`, `KY`, `OK`. | | `industryCode` | string | (none) | Restrict to a main line of business code (TOL 2008), e.g. `62010`. | | `maxItems` | integer (1-10000) | `50` | Maximum company records to collect. Pagination is automatic. | | `withDetails` | boolean | `false` | Expand each record with full name history, all addresses and every register entry. | #### Example input ```json { "query": "kahvila", "city": "Helsinki", "maxItems": 100, "withDetails": false } ```` #### Example output ```json { "businessId": "0112038-9", "euId": "FIFPRO.0112038-9", "name": "Nokia Oyj", "companyForm": "Public limited company", "companyFormCode": "17", "status": "Active", "industryCode": "70100", "industry": "Activities of head offices", "registrationDate": "1896-12-19", "endDate": null, "website": "www.nokia.com", "city": "ESPOO", "visitingAddress": { "type": "Visiting address", "street": "Karakaari", "buildingNumber": "7", "postCode": "02610", "city": "ESPOO", "municipalityCode": "049", "fullAddress": "Karakaari 7, 02610 ESPOO" }, "postalAddress": { "type": "Postal address", "poBox": "226", "postCode": "00045", "city": "NOKIA GROUP", "fullAddress": "PO Box 226, 00045 NOKIA GROUP" }, "vatRegistered": true, "prepaymentRegistered": true, "employerRegistered": true, "lastModified": "2026-06-08T14:49:11", "scrapedAt": "2026-07-05T13:59:00.000Z" } ``` ### Use cases - **KYB and due diligence.** Confirm a Finnish company exists, is active, and get its business ID, legal form, industry, addresses and VAT status for onboarding and compliance checks. - **Lead generation.** Build targeted lists of companies by city, industry or company form, complete with addresses and websites for outreach. - **Market research.** Map an industry or region, size up how many companies operate in a sector, and track new registrations. - **Data enrichment.** Turn a company name or business ID into a clean, structured profile inside your CRM or data pipeline. ### FAQ **How do I look up one specific company?** Put its business ID (Y-tunnus, e.g. `0112038-9`) in the `query` field. It is detected automatically and returns that single company's full profile. **Can I search by name?** Yes. Enter a full or partial company name in `query`. Add `city`, `companyForm` or `industryCode` to narrow the results. **How many companies can I collect?** Set `maxItems` up to 10000. The actor pages through the results automatically until it reaches your limit. **What is a business ID / Y-tunnus?** It is the unique identifier every registered Finnish company and organization has, in the format `1234567-8`. It is the primary key used across Finnish business records. **Do I get contact addresses?** Yes. Each record includes the visiting and postal address, the city and municipality, and the registered website when one is published. Enable **Fetch full details** for the complete address history. **Is the data reliable?** Records come straight from Finland's official open company registry and are returned exactly as published. Values that the registry does not provide are returned as `null`. ### Disclaimer This actor retrieves **public records** published as open data by Finland's official company registry. You are responsible for using the data lawfully, including for KYB, due diligence and lead-generation purposes, and for complying with applicable privacy and data-protection rules in your jurisdiction. This actor is independent and is not affiliated with or endorsed by any Finnish authority. ### Export, API and AI agents (x402 + MCP) Export the scraped data to **JSON, CSV or Excel**, pull it as a **dataset** through the Apify **API**, or wire it into your app with **no code**. This web scraper and data extractor also works for bulk data extraction and scheduled runs. For AI agents: this Actor is available on **x402**, Apify's agentic payment standard built with Coinbase. An AI agent can discover, pay for and run it on its own with a funded wallet and a single HTTP request: no account, no subscription, no API key and no human in the loop.
