What does each ThomasNet action accept?
Each answer below pairs one callable action with its real inputs. Parameter meanings and allowed values are action-specific; a familiar name does not carry the same meaning across every platform.
Official sources are linked only to clarify the platform term beside them. They do not imply platform authorization or endorsement, and they do not add official-site features to the EveryInfra API contract.

ThomasNet API questions
What can I retrieve with the ThomasNet API?
Set platform to thomasnet. The current catalog lists search and company. These action names identify different ThomasNet objects or views; they are not interchangeable search modes.
Which input starts a ThomasNet `search` request?
Specifies the search term for industrial products, materials, or manufacturing services (e.g., injection molding) in the search action. Returns North American manufacturer and industrial-company listings rather than consumer retail products. Send it as keyword inside params.
Which fields can ThomasNet `search` return?
Its declared schema includes name, text, address, and email. A declared field can still be absent from an individual record, and every other action has its own field list.
Does every ThomasNet action return immediately?
Actions labeled asynchronous return a job ID you poll. Every other action can also run asynchronously: add "mode": "async" to the request body to receive a job ID immediately, useful for slow tasks or large limits. The current catalog contains sync delivery.
