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 businesses by name or by organisation number, or narrow a search by municipality, industry, legal form or postal code. No login, no API key and no proxy are required. ### What you get For every matching company: | Field | Description | | --- | --- | | `orgNumber` | Norwegian 9-digit organisation number | | `name` | Registered company name | | `orgForm` | Legal form code, e.g. `AS`, `ASA`, `ENK`, `NUF` | | `orgFormLabel` | Legal form in full, e.g. `Aksjeselskap`, `Allmennaksjeselskap` | | `industryCode` | Primary industry (NACE) code | | `industryLabel` | Primary industry description | | `industryCode2` / `industryLabel2` | Secondary industry code and description, when present | | `employees` | Registered number of employees | | `website` | Company website, when published | | `phone` | Registered phone number, when published | | `email` | Registered email address, when published | | `businessAddress` | Business address (street, postal code, city, municipality, municipality number, country) | | `postalAddress` | Postal address, when different from the business address | | `foundingDate` | Date the company was founded | | `registeredDate` | Date first entered in the register | | `sectorCode` / `sectorLabel` | Institutional sector code and description | | `vatRegistered` | Whether the company is in the VAT register | | `inBusinessRegister` | Whether the company is in the business enterprise register | | `bankrupt` | Bankruptcy flag | | `underLiquidation` | Voluntary liquidation flag | | `underForcedLiquidation` | Compulsory liquidation / dissolution flag | | `partOfGroup` | Whether the company belongs to a group | | `lastAnnualAccounts` | Year of the most recent submitted annual accounts | | `shareCapital` | Share capital amount, currency and type, when present | | `ceo`* | Chief executive (daglig leder) name | | `chair`* | Board chair name | | `officers`* | Full list of roles: board members, chair, CEO, deputies, auditor and more, each with role, name, holder type, date of birth (for people), who elected them and whether they have resigned | | `url` | Link to the company's public page | | `scrapedAt` | ISO timestamp of collection | *\*`ceo`, `chair` and `officers` are added when Fetch officers and roles is enabled (default on). One fast request per company returns the complete leadership.* Missing values are returned as `null`. Nothing is invented. ### Input | Field | Type | Default | Description | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | `query` | string (required) | `Equinor` | Company name (or part of it), or a 9-digit organisation number for a direct lookup. | | `municipality` | string | | Restrict to a 4-digit municipality number, e.g. `0301` (Oslo). | | `industryCode` | string | | Restrict to a NACE industry code, e.g. `41.200`. | | `orgForm` | string | | Restrict to a legal form code, e.g. `AS`, `ASA`, `ENK`, `NUF`. | | `postalCode` | string | | Restrict to a 4-digit postal code. | | `withDetails` | boolean | `true` | Fetch the board, chair, CEO and auditor for each company. | | `maxItems` | integer (1-10000) | `50` | Maximum records to collect. | #### Example input ```json { "query": "Equinor", "orgForm": "ASA", "withDetails": true, "maxItems": 50 } ```` #### Example output ```json { "orgNumber": "923609016", "name": "EQUINOR ASA", "orgForm": "ASA", "orgFormLabel": "Allmennaksjeselskap", "industryCode": "06.100", "industryLabel": "Utvinning av råolje", "employees": 21467, "website": "www.equinor.com", "phone": "51 99 00 00", "email": null, "businessAddress": { "street": "Forusbeen 50", "postalCode": "4035", "city": "STAVANGER", "municipality": "STAVANGER", "municipalityNumber": "1103", "country": "Norge", "countryCode": "NO" }, "foundingDate": "1972-09-18", "registeredDate": "1995-03-12", "sectorLabel": "Statlig eide aksjeselskaper mv.", "vatRegistered": true, "bankrupt": false, "underLiquidation": false, "shareCapital": { "amount": 5976872600, "currency": "NOK", "type": "Aksjekapital" }, "ceo": "Anders Opedal", "chair": "Jarle Kjell Roth", "officers": [ { "roleGroup": "DAGL", "roleGroupLabel": "Daglig leder", "role": "DAGL", "roleLabel": "Daglig leder", "name": "Anders Opedal", "holderType": "person", "holderOrgNumber": null, "dateOfBirth": "1968-05-04", "electedBy": null, "resigned": false }, { "roleGroup": "STYR", "roleGroupLabel": "Styre", "role": "LEDE", "roleLabel": "Styrets leder", "name": "Jarle Kjell Roth", "holderType": "person", "holderOrgNumber": null, "dateOfBirth": "1960-04-26", "electedBy": null, "resigned": false } ], "url": "https://virksomhet.brreg.no/nb/oppslag/enheter/923609016", "scrapedAt": "2026-07-05T12:00:00.000Z" } ``` ### Notes and limits - **Result cap.** A single search returns up to **10000 records**. To narrow a broad name, add a municipality, industry, legal form or postal code filter. - **Organisation number lookup.** When `query` is a 9-digit organisation number, one exact company is returned instead of a name search. - **Officers.** With `withDetails` on (default), each company is enriched with its full set of roles: board members, chair, CEO (daglig leder), deputies and auditor. People include a date of birth; corporate role holders (for example an auditing firm) include their organisation number. Set `withDetails` to false to return company-level fields only and skip the per-company role request. - Fields are populated when they are published for a company and returned as `null` otherwise. ### Use cases - KYB, due diligence and compliance checks on Norwegian companies. - Lead generation and enrichment from a company name or an industry. - Building leadership and decision-maker lists from board, chair and CEO data. - Market research on companies by sector, region or legal form. ### Disclaimer This actor retrieves **public records** published as open data from Norway's central register of business entities. 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 Norwegian government body or register. ### 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. It also runs as an **MCP** tool inside Claude, Cursor and other AI clients out of the box.
