## What's an Apify Actor?

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.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).


# README

## French Company Search (SIRENE / SIREN) — Pro

**Free Apify actor.** Search the official French company register (SIRENE) with
**rich filters, two search modes and a developer-grade runtime**. Recherche
avancee d'entreprises francaises (SIRENE/SIREN).

Source: official government API `recherche-entreprises.api.gouv.fr` (Etalab /
DINUM), aggregating INSEE SIRENE, RNE and RNA. No API key. Open Licence 2.0.

### Search modes

- **text** — one search per name / brand / SIREN in `queries`; leave empty for a
  filters-only sweep.
- **nearPoint** — every company within `radiusKm` of a GPS point.

### Filters

`naf`, `section` (A-U), `postalCode`, `department`, `region`, `communeCode`,
`legalCategory`, `companyCategory` (PME/ETI/GE), `employeeRange`,
`administrativeState`, and boolean flags: association, ESS, RGE, training org,
Qualiopi, organic, local authority, public service, sole trader.

### Runtime (developer-grade)

Bounded **parallelism** (`maxConcurrency`), global **`maxItems`** cap,
**de-duplication** by SIREN+SIRET, resilient HTTP client (timeout, exponential
backoff + jitter, 429/5xx handling), optional **Apify proxy**, structured logs
(`debug`), and a machine-readable **run summary** in the key-value store
(`OUTPUT`). `resultsPerQuery` x `maxPages` controls depth; toggle
`includeDirigeants`, `includeEtablissements`, `includeFinances`.

### Output (trimmed)

```json
{
  "query": "Airbus", "status": "found",
  "siren": "383474814", "nom_complet": "AIRBUS",
  "activite_principale": "30.30Z", "commune_siege": "BLAGNAC",
  "est_rge": true, "dirigeants": ["GUILLAUME FAURY"],
  "finances": [{ "year": "2024", "ca": 57412795000, "resultat_net": 2206027000 }]
}
````

Every entry yields an item with `status`: `found`, `not_found`, `error`.

### Use cases

- Targeted French B2B prospecting by activity, size and location.
- List all RGE / Qualiopi / ESS / organic firms in a department.
- Map companies around an address for field sales or logistics.
- Enrich a CRM with SIREN/SIRET, NAF, directors and financials.

### Limitations & fair use

- Source caps total results at 10,000 per filter set.
- Be considerate: use `maxConcurrency` responsibly on this shared public API.
