S.C.A.L.A. ScoreInstall

Summary

Searches the S.C.A.L.A. Score company database by company name (prefix match) or exact tax/VAT ID, with optional country filter, limit on results, and filed accounts restriction. Returns one n8n item per matching company.

Inputs

• Query — Company name (prefix match) or VAT number such as IT00159560366. Leave empty if you use Tax ID.
• Tax ID — Exact tax/VAT id. The country prefix (e.g. IT) selects the country if Country is empty.
• Country — ISO 2-letter country code (e.g. IT, DE, FR, GB). Only sent if non-empty; empty means all countries.
• Limit — Max number of results to return, between 1 and 100 (default 10).
• Filed Accounts Only — Boolean flag to restrict results only to companies with revenue_type "reported" (filed accounts). Requires paid credit packs, otherwise HTTP 403 error.

Output shape

A list of items, one per company returned by the API. Each item's json is a single company record.

The node performs a GET request to the endpoint /api/v1/search on the credential's base URL, authenticating with the X-API-Key header from the scalaScoreApi credential. It requires at least one of Query or Tax ID parameters to be set. If Tax ID is supplied, it is sent as the tax_id query parameter; otherwise the Query is sent as q. Optional parameters country, limit, and filed_only (if Filed Accounts Only is true, value '1') are added as query parameters. The response's results array is output as individual items, each extended with any data_licences and attribution fields from the response. If no results are returned, the node outputs no items. The operation runs once per input item, triggering multiple searches if multiple input items are given.

Examples

Example 1: Find active restaurants in Italy

Query: 'pizzeria', Country: IT, NACE Code: 56.10, Status: Active, Limit: 25

Example 2: Resolve a VAT number to a company record
