Use Import Companies by NAF Code via the API

Import Companies by NAF Code isn't tied to the Google Sheets sidebar.

Same credit cost as the add-on, same data. API access is included from the Standard plan up.

Opportunity Prospector

Reviewed on Capterra

Building a French B2B prospecting list usually starts with an activity : every bakery, every daycare, every machine-shop in a region. The data is public - it lives in the SIRENE registry maintained by INSEE - but getting it out means an export from Pappers or Societe.com, a paid API, or copy-pasting page after page. None of that lands cleanly in the spreadsheet where the rest of your prospecting happens.

Derrick reads a column of NAF/APE activity codes directly from a Google Sheet (10.71C for bakeries, 88.91A for daycare - the dotless 1071C works too) and pages through the official public registry, writing every matching company into a new tab, one per row : legal name, SIREN and SIRET, number of open establishments, main activity, headcount band, creation date, registered address and director. Add an optional département to narrow a code to one zone. Free to start, then 1 credit per company. See the Derrick pricing grid.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to install anything to use Import Companies by NAF Code?

Just the Derrick Google Sheets add-on (one click, no API keys, no developer setup). Once installed, Import Companies by NAF Code is one of the workflows available from the Derrick sidebar inside any Sheet. The same feature is also available via REST API and via the Derrick MCP server for Claude / ChatGPT.

Can I use Import Companies by NAF Code on a list of 1,000+ rows?

Yes - Import Companies by NAF Code runs as a batch job inside Google Sheets, with progress tracking and per-row credit accounting. The workflow scales linearly: 10 rows or 10,000 rows, the steps are identical and you can step away while it runs.

Where does the data behind Import Companies by NAF Code come from?

Derrick aggregates 10+ public-data sources (LinkedIn graph, company websites, registry data, web crawl, third-party providers) and runs a multi-source lookup for Import Companies by NAF Code. The first source that returns a confident match wins; if no source is confident enough, the cell is left blank rather than guessed.

Is Import Companies by NAF Code GDPR-compliant?

Yes. Derrick only enriches public data, doesn't store personal records beyond the duration of the lookup, and supports full deletion on request. The Sheets add-on runs inside Google's OAuth-protected environment so your data stays private to your account.

Can I trigger Import Companies by NAF Code automatically when I add a row?

Yes - set up a Google Sheets onEdit trigger (Apps Script, takes 2 minutes) so a new row in column A automatically runs Import Companies by NAF Code into column B. Pair with Zapier / Make / n8n to push CRM contacts directly into the sheet for hands-free enrichment.
