Search agencies — input example

{
  "mode": "search",
  "location": "United States",
  "maxResults": 60
}

Get agency details — input example

{
  "mode": "details",
  "recordUrls": [
    "https://www.sortlist.com/agency/goliaence"
  ],
  "maxResults": 1
}

maxResults limits all saved rows for each search or supplied record, including a failed row. It does not guarantee that the source has that many matching records. A detail lookup normally returns one record, although sources with multiple revisions or establishments can return more.

Sortlist scraping use cases 🎯

Build a company research list

Use the supported name, category or location fields to collect relevant companies. Export the available business information with source references.

Collect company profiles

Retrieve known public records and review the published company facts, business descriptions and contact information that this source provides.

Keep a business dataset current

Schedule repeated exports and compare stable company IDs. Missing fields remain empty instead of being guessed.

Pricing and saved-result behavior 💰

See the Actor’s Pricing tab for the current rate. Under dataset-item pricing:

• Each saved record is one result. Lists and additional details attached to it do not create extra rows.
• A saved failed row is also one billable dataset item. This includes invalid inputs, unavailable records, empty searches and exhausted retries.
• At most one failed row is saved per input. Retry attempts do not create additional dataset rows.
• maxResults caps all saved rows for the input. Duplicate copies of the same input are processed once.

Sortlist scraper API and integrations 🔌

Replace $ACTOR_ID with the ID shown in the Actor’s API tab and $APIFY_TOKEN with your Apify token.

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/$ACTOR_ID/runs?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"mode":"search","location":"United States","maxResults":60}'

Use Apify schedules for recurring collection, webhooks for completion notifications, and integrations for Google Sheets, Make, Zapier, cloud storage or your own application.

Reliability and public-data limits ⚠️

Temporary request failures are retried up to five total attempts. Invalid record inputs save a failed row without a website request. Confirmed missing records are not retried unnecessarily. If a later request fails, records already saved remain in the dataset. Normal pagination completion does not add a failed row. Collection stops after two consecutive pages return no new records. Configuration, data-saving or request-scheduling failures stop the run.

Sortlist controls the available records and fields. Search records can contain less information than a full public card. The Actor preserves published values and does not fill missing facts with estimates.

Frequently asked questions ❓

Do I need a Sortlist account?

No. This Actor collects the supported public information without your website login.

Which search filters can I use?

The input form supports digital marketing agency location. Only the displayed filters are supported.

How many records can I collect?

Set maxResults to the maximum saved rows you want for each input. The minimum is 1. Collection can finish earlier when the source runs out of results or stops returning new records.

Why are some fields empty?

The source may not publish a value for that record or mode. Optional information remains empty.

Can I export all the fields?

Yes. All returned fields are included in one dataset view. Nested lists remain attached to their parent record.

Support 🛟

For a reproducible issue, share the run ID, selected mode and a safe public example through the Actor’s support channel. Keep tokens, passwords and proxy credentials private.
