Features

Automatically pre-fills third-party create/modify form. A new field is added above the form. When a company name is typed into this field, a search on the pappers.fr website is performed. The user is the able to click on a search result to auto-fill the third-party form fields. This module can work either with or without an API key.

Without an API Key

This module works out of the box without an API key, but some data (including the VAT number) will not be available. The module will use all data available from the search results. Any other informations will require an API key. The Pappers website allows up to 100 searches per day per IP address (quotas are applied based on the users' IP addresses)

With an API Key

Creating an API Key is free and allows retrieving more details on a specific company. A newly created account includes up to 100 free requests before requiring a payment. This module only uses one request after the user has clicked on a search result. The API key must be set-up in the module's configuration (see "Setup" section), and quotas to the API key are applied instance-wide.
