It has two run modes. 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. Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md. ## 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. 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 examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below. 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`). # README ## Brazil CNPJ Company Lookup – Receita Federal Data Bulk lookup of Brazilian companies by CNPJ: legal and trade name, status, opening date, legal nature, size, share capital, main and secondary CNAE activities and address. ### Why this actor - Bulk-friendly with punctuation-tolerant input. - Pay only for results: **$1.00 per 1,000 companys**, no start fee, failed lookups are free. - Robust: automatic retries with exponential backoff, respects `Retry-After`, per-item error rows instead of crashed runs. - Clean, flat JSON/CSV/Excel output ready for Google Sheets, Make, Zapier, n8n, Clay, or the Apify API. ### Use cases - KYB/onboarding in Brazil - Lead enrichment - Supplier validation ### Input | Field | Type | Description | |---|---|---| | `cnpjs` | array | With or without punctuation. | | `maxItems` | integer | 0 = no limit. Caps cost. | Example input: ```json { "cnpjs": [ "33.000.167/0001-01", "00000000000191", "60701190000104" ] } ``` ### Output Each dataset item looks like this (real sample from a test run, long fields trimmed): ```json { "cnpj": "33000167000101", "legalName": "PETROLEO BRASILEIRO S A PETROBRAS", "tradeName": "PETROBRAS - EDISE", "status": "ATIVA", "statusDate": "2005-11-03", "openedOn": "1966-09-28", "legalNature": "Sociedade de Economia Mista", "size": "DEMAIS", "shareCapital": 205431960000, "mainActivityCode": 600001, "mainActivity": "Extra\u00e7\u00e3o de petr\u00f3leo e g\u00e1s natural", "secondaryActivities": [ "Fabrica\u00e7\u00e3o de produtos do refino de petr\u00f3leo", "Produ\u00e7\u00e3o de g\u00e1s; processamento de g\u00e1s natural", "Distribui\u00e7\u00e3o de combust\u00edveis gasosos por redes urbanas", "\u2026" ], "street": "AVENIDA REPUBLICA DO CHILE 65", "district": "CENTRO", "city": "RIO DE JANEIRO", "state": "RJ", "zip": "20031170", "isHeadOffice": true, "simplesNacional": null, "partnersCount": 8, "fetchedAt": "2026-10-15T00:01:04+00:00" } ``` Rows that could not be processed contain an `error` field and are **not charged**. ### Pricing Pay-per-event: **$0.001** per company (= $1.00 / 1,000). Use **Max results** to cap spend. Apify's free plan credit covers thousands of results per month. ### Integrations & API Run on a schedule in Apify Console, call via the Apify API / Python & JS clients, or connect to Make, Zapier, n8n, Google Sheets, Slack and webhooks. Works as a tool for AI agents via Apify MCP. ### FAQ **Is this an official tool?** No. It is an independent actor and is not affiliated with, sponsored or endorsed by the data source or any trademark owner named here. **Is it legal?** The actor only reads publicly available data from public endpoints, without logins, and does not bypass paywalls or access controls. You are responsible for using the data in line with applicable laws (e.g. GDPR) and the source sites' terms. **Something broke?** Open an issue in the Issues tab; we typically respond within 24 hours and ship fixes fast. # Actor input Schema ## `cnpjs` (type: `array`): With or without punctuation. ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): 0 = no limit.

Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "cnpjs": [ "33.000.167/0001-01", "00.000.000/0001-91" ] }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("shawndunn/brazil-cnpj-company-lookup").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?

Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer ` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations). ## OpenAPI specification Download the OpenAPI definition: https://api.apify.com/v2/actors/60LBkZUAdCrXezpu7/builds/74liIS1VHzROt273G/openapi.json
