## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. 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

## Spain Registro Público Concursal Search (Insolvency)

Screen any Spanish company or person against Spain's **official public insolvency register - the Registro Público Concursal** (`publicidadconcursal.es`) - by debtor name or NIF, and get clean structured JSON. Each matching party comes back with its **role in a concursal publication**: debtor (deudor), disqualified (inhabilitado), or insolvency administrator (administrador concursal). Beyond what the register's manual search allows, in one call.

**No login, no API key, nothing to configure** - just send a name or NIF.

A concursal publication is a core negative signal in Spanish B2B: it means a company or person is (or was) in an insolvency proceeding. Screening a counterparty against the register is essential for credit risk, KYB/KYC, onboarding, and debtor monitoring.

### What data do you get?

One record per matching party:

```json
{
  "name": "ABENGOA BIOENERGÍA NUEVAS TECNOLOGÍAS. S.A.",
  "documentId": "A91185595",
  "documentType": "company (NIF/CIF)",
  "isDebtor": true,
  "isDisqualified": false,
  "isInsolvencyAdministrator": false,
  "matchedQuery": "Abengoa",
  "jurisdiction": "ES",
  "source": "Registro Público Concursal (publicidadconcursal.es)",
  "sourceUrl": "https://www.publicidadconcursal.es/consulta-publicidad-concursal-new",
  "retrievedAt": "2026-07-02T00:00:00.000Z"
}
```

The three role flags come straight from the register's own columns: `isDebtor` (Deudor), `isDisqualified` (Inhabilitado), `isInsolvencyAdministrator` (Administrador concursal).

### How much does it cost?

**Pay per search** - you are not charged for Apify platform usage, only per search performed. See the **Pricing** tab on this page for the current figure. The free Apify plan allows a small number of searches; upgrade to a paid plan for full, uncapped use. No subscription, no minimum.

### Is it legal, and where does the data come from?

Data comes from the official **Registro Público Concursal** at [publicidadconcursal.es](https://www.publicidadconcursal.es/consulta-publicidad-concursal-new), the Spanish public insolvency-publicity register. The register is public and open; this actor reads the public search and logs in to nothing. Every record is stamped with its source URL and retrieval timestamp. Use the data lawfully for KYB / credit-risk / due-diligence purposes.

### How do I use it?

Look up a debtor by name:

```json
{ "name": "Abengoa" }
```

Look up by identifier (`{ "searchMode": "byNif", "nif": ["A91185595"] }`), or monitor a watchlist (each name is one search):

```json
{ "watchlist": ["Abengoa", "Codere", "Duro Felguera"] }
```

### Input options

| Field | Type | Description |
|------|------|-------------|
| `searchMode` | string | `byName` (default) or `byNif`. |
| `name` | string | Debtor / party name (afectado). |
| `watchlist` | array | A list of names to check in one run. Overrides `name`. |
| `nif` | array | One or more identifiers (used in `byNif` mode). |
| `identifierType` | string | NIF / CIF / DNI / NIE. |
| `maxResults` | integer | Max party records to export across all queries. Default `100`. Set to `0` to export every match. |

**Note on `maxResults` and role flags:** the register returns debtor entries first. A search cut off by `maxResults` can therefore contain no disqualified-person (`isDisqualified`) or insolvency-administrator (`isInsolvencyAdministrator`) rows even when the full result set does - on a broad surname such as "Martínez" (9,000+ matches) the first non-debtor rows only appear after roughly 120-160 debtor rows. Raise `maxResults` (or set `0`) for broad name searches, or narrow the name.

### When it finds nothing, that means something

On an insolvency screen the most important output is often the **absence** of a hit - "this counterparty has no concursal publications" is a clean bill of health, and it is only worth anything if we actually looked.

So before this Actor reports a clean result, it **checks that the register is answering normally** at that moment. Only then is your empty result reported as clean. If that check fails - the register is down, or is not answering - the search is marked **UNVERIFIED**, listed in the run's `UNVERIFIED` key-value record, and **not charged**. A run that could not verify anything **fails** (non-zero exit) rather than handing you a false all-clear.

The register also caps very broad searches. When it does, the run says the list is **incomplete** and asks you to narrow the name, instead of presenting a partial answer as the whole truth.

### Pairs with the company & UBO actors (the source -> screen flow)

This actor is the **debtor / insolvency check** half of a KYB workflow. Chain it with an **identity / UBO source**:

- **[Poland CRBR](https://apify.com/regdata/crbr-beneficial-owners-scraper)** / **[Slovakia RPVS](https://apify.com/regdata/slovakia-rpvs-ubo-scraper)** beneficial owners - source the owners and companies.
- **This actor** - screen those Spanish companies and people against the insolvency register.

The sibling debtor screens across the suite are [Poland KRZ](https://apify.com/regdata/krz-debtor-scraper), [Germany Insolvency](https://apify.com/regdata/germany-insolvency-scraper), and [Czech ISIR](https://apify.com/regdata/czech-isir-insolvency-scraper). Source the party, then check the party.

### What you can do with it

- **Credit risk & onboarding** - before extending terms, check whether a customer or supplier appears as a debtor in the insolvency register.
- **KYB / KYC** - screen a counterparty (or the owners/UBOs surfaced by the other actors) against the Spanish concursal register.
- **Debtor & portfolio monitoring** - run a `watchlist` on a schedule for new insolvency appearances.
- **Disqualification / administrator checks** - see whether a person is disqualified or acting as an insolvency administrator.

### Run it from code

```bash
## cURL - start a run and get the dataset back
curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/regdata~spain-concursal-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "name": "Abengoa" }'
```

```javascript
// Node.js - apify-client
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';
const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_TOKEN' });
const run = await client.actor('regdata/spain-concursal-scraper').call({ name: 'Abengoa' });
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
```

```python
## Python - apify-client
from apify_client import ApifyClient
client = ApifyClient("YOUR_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("regdata/spain-concursal-scraper").call(run_input={"name": "Abengoa"})
items = client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).list_items().items
```

### Integrations

Runs anywhere Apify does: call it from the **REST API**, **schedule** a watchlist monitor, pipe results into **n8n / Make / Zapier**, or use it from any **MCP client** (Claude, Cursor) via [mcp.apify.com](https://mcp.apify.com).

### FAQ

**Is it legal?** Yes. The Registro Público Concursal is a public, open register. This actor reads the public search only. Use the data lawfully for B2B / credit-risk / due-diligence purposes.

**Do I need an account or API key?** No. No login, no key, nothing to configure - just an Apify account.

**How do I monitor several counterparties?** Pass a `watchlist` array and schedule the run - each name is one search.

**What does an empty result mean?** That the name does not appear in the insolvency register - a clean answer for a credit check, not a failure.

**What do the role flags mean?** `isDebtor` = the party is a debtor in a proceeding; `isDisqualified` = disqualified (inhabilitado); `isInsolvencyAdministrator` = acting as an insolvency administrator.

**What export formats are supported?** JSON, CSV, Excel, or XML, or read live via the API.

# Actor input Schema

## `searchMode` (type: `string`):

Search by debtor/affected-party name, or by identifier (NIF/CIF/DNI/NIE).

## `name` (type: `string`):

Company name or person name to look up in the insolvency-publicity register (afectado). Leave empty when using a watchlist.

## `watchlist` (type: `array`):

A list of names to check in one run - the monitoring use case. Overrides "name". Each name costs one search.

## `nif` (type: `array`):

One or more Spanish identifiers to look up. Used when search mode is "By identifier".

## `identifierType` (type: `string`):

Type of identifier when searching by NIF.

## `maxResults` (type: `integer`):

Maximum party records to export across all queries. The register serves results in pages, and the Actor pages through until it reaches this limit or runs out of matches. Set to 0 to export every match. The register returns debtor entries first, so a search truncated by maxResults can contain no disqualified-person or insolvency-administrator rows even when the full result set does. Raise maxResults (or set 0) for broad name searches.
