Nextdoor Business Profile Scraper

Scrape Nextdoor business profiles, recommendations, and reviews. 3 modes: public /pages/ scraping (no auth), Google SERP discovery, and authenticated session cookies for full data. Extract business name, address, phone, recommendations, reviews, and category.

BYOK (Bring Your Own Key) -- you provide your own API credentials.


Before You Start

This actor requires your own API credentials to fetch real data.

Where to get your key: JSON array of cookies from Cookie-Editor browser extension. Unlocks full Nextdoor data (recommendations, posts, reviews). Note: If cookieStorageKey is set, this field is ignored unless you want to override the stored cookies.


Quick Start

],
"city": "Miami, FL",
"cookieKvStoreName": "cookie-sessions",
"sessionCookies": "YOUR_API_KEY_HERE",
"neighborhoods": [
"miami-beach-fl"
],
"scrapeType": "recommendations",
"category": "all",

Troubleshooting

"API key is required"

  • Add your API key in the input

"API error 403" or "Unauthorized"

Your API key is invalid, expired, or doesn't have access to this specific API endpoint. Double-check your key and account permissions.

"API error 429" or "Rate limit"

Too many requests. Wait a minute and try again, or reduce the number of items per run.

No results or empty dataset

Check the run log for error messages. Common causes:

  • Invalid input format (check the examples above)
  • API key without proper permissions
  • The target data doesn't exist or is too small to track

How do I test without an API key?
