API discovery: api.gouv.fr lists API Entreprise with a public technical definition and a clear eligibility caveat: production access is for authorized administrative uses with a token. That makes it a useful agent-planning source, not a free lookup button.
Creative Example
A procurement assistant could prepare a checklist for a grant or public-market file: identify which company facts API Entreprise can expose, ask whether the operator has authorization, then draft the request plan before any live call is attempted.
Copy-Paste Agent Instruction
Inspect the API Entreprise OpenAPI definition and api.gouv.fr catalog page. Build a request plan for checking a French company's administrative data, but first list the required authorization, token, staging option, rate limit, endpoint family, and one reason not to call production without eligibility.
What To Check First
The OpenAPI definition says production calls require a bearer token, and the catalog record points to a 1,000 requests/minute/IP limit. Test caveat: use staging or documentation first, do not invent credentials, and do not treat permissioned company data as open data.
