# Search Pappers companies

Automatically search Pappers companies on pappers.fr. Search French companies on Pappers by name, or look one up directly by its SIREN or SIRET. Returns each company with its legal form, main activity, head-office address, workforce bracket, share capital, creation date and status. A name search pages through up to 400 results. An identifier lookup returns the single matching company and includes its head-office SIRET, but Pappers does not provide share capital or workforce figures on that route.

## Run it

Ask an AI agent connected to Reduck over MCP (`https://mcp.reduck.ai/mcp`) to run `reduck/pappers.fr/search_entreprises`, or run it from a terminal:

```bash
npx @reduck-ai/cli@latest run --script reduck/pappers.fr/search_entreprises
```

## Input

- `q` (string, optional): Search text (company name, SIREN, etc.). Must be non-empty: an empty string is treated by Pappers as an unfiltered match-everything query.
- `page` (integer, optional): Results page (20 per page by default). Pappers caps pagination at 400 entities, so page x par_page must be <= 400.
- `query` (string, optional): Alias for q. Supply either q or query, not both; if both are given, q wins.
- `par_page` (integer, optional): Number of results per page (max 100). Pappers caps pagination at 400 entities, so page x par_page must be <= 400.

## Output

- `page` (integer, optional)
- `total` (integer, optional): Total number of companies matching the query
- `par_page` (integer, optional)
- `resultats` (array, optional)
