🚀 Usage

Input

Proxy configuration

Google Maps aggressively blocks requests from datacenter IPs. A proxy is strongly recommended.

Option A — Apify Residential proxies (default, best results):

{"useApifyProxy":true,"apifyProxyGroups":["RESIDENTIAL"]}

Option B — Your own proxies:

{"useApifyProxy":false,"proxyUrls":["http://user:pass@proxy.example.com:8080"]}

Option C — No proxy (may be blocked by Google):

{"useApifyProxy":false}

Supported URL formats

Search URL (copy from Google Maps address bar):

https://www.google.com/maps/search/pizza+new+york

Place URL (open a business on Google Maps, copy the URL):

https://www.google.com/maps/place/Joe's+Pizza/@40.7303,-74.003,17z/...

💡 Tips

• For local business research, combine searchStringsArray with countryCode and language to get localised results.
• Use includeReviews: true to get customer sentiment data.
• maxCrawledPlaces applies per query — to scrape 100 places across 5 queries, set it to 20.
• Google Maps typically shows up to 120 results per search page.

💰 Pricing

Pay-per-result — from $1.50 per 1,000 businesses (Business plan) up to $3.00/1,000 on the Free plan. Billed on top of Apify platform compute costs.

Note: because this actor uses a real browser with proxies, compute costs are higher than API-based actors (~$0.05–0.15 per 1,000 places depending on proxy usage).

⚠️ Limitations

• Google Maps is a dynamic SPA — occasional changes to the page structure may affect extraction. The actor uses multiple fallback selectors to stay robust.
• Opening hours and reviews require additional page interactions and may add a few seconds per place.
• Very high volumes (>10,000 places/run) should use residential proxies to avoid blocks.
