## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Company Role Contact Finder

Find likely public contacts and role-based pages for target companies using web discovery and source evidence.

### Who this is for

- B2B sales teams
- Recruiting and partnership teams
- Market research workflows

### What it helps you do

- Find people or role pages connected to target companies
- Collect public contact URLs and evidence
- Prioritize targets with confidence scores

### Inputs you can use

- Company names or domains
- Target roles
- Search location or keyword context
- Maximum contacts

### Data you get

- company
- role
- person or page title
- profile URL
- email when public
- source URL
- confidence score

### How to get better results

- Start with a narrow, specific query or a small list of source URLs.
- Use realistic limits for the first run, then increase the volume once the output looks right.
- Keep source URLs, dates, and location context when you need repeatable market monitoring.
- Review a few sample records before connecting the dataset to a larger workflow.

### Notes

- Results depend on what the public source exposes at run time.
- Some pages may hide, delay, rename, or remove fields, so individual records can have partial data.
- Use the built-in output table to inspect results before exporting to spreadsheets, dashboards, or automation tools.

### Support

If a run returns unexpected data, open an issue from the Actor page with the input used, the run ID, and the result you expected.

# Actor input Schema

## `companyName` (type: `array`):

Companies to target. The Actor runs one search per company and role.

## `role` (type: `array`):

Roles to find, such as CEO, Head of Sales, HR Manager, CTO, Growth Lead, or Partnerships.

## `companyWebsite` (type: `array`):

Optional official websites aligned with company order. Supplying these improves email suggestions and avoids an extra domain-resolution search.

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

Maximum records saved to the dataset. Use 0 for unlimited.

## `maxResultsPerCompanyRole` (type: `integer`):

Maximum contacts kept for each company/role pair.

## `includeSearchResults` (type: `boolean`):

Find role contacts from public search-result snippets and public profile URLs.

## `searchProvider` (type: `string`):

Provider used for public search. Auto tries supported providers in order.

## `maxSearchResults` (type: `integer`):

Maximum raw search results inspected per company/role pair.

## `includeCompanySiteEmails` (type: `boolean`):

Also inspect the official website and likely contact/team/careers pages for published role emails.

## `maxCompanyPages` (type: `integer`):

Maximum official-site pages to inspect when company-site email extraction is enabled.

## `guessEmails` (type: `boolean`):

Generate likely business emails from contact name and company domain.

## `emailFormat` (type: `string`):

Format used for suggested emails.

## `verifyEmailDomain` (type: `boolean`):

Check whether suggested email domains have MX records.

## `verifyMailbox` (type: `boolean`):

Optional SMTP RCPT check. Many mail servers block this, so keep it off unless you need it.

## `manualSearchResults` (type: `array`):

Optional pre-supplied search results for tests, integrations, or bundles. Each item can contain title, url, and snippet.

## `requestTimeoutSecs` (type: `integer`):

Timeout for each HTTP request.

## `failOnNoResults` (type: `boolean`):

Useful for automated smoke tests.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Proxy configuration for public search and company-site requests.
