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
Run with real data
{"businessPageUrls": ["https://nextdoor.com/pages/motz-plumbing-north-miami-fl/"],"searchTerms": ["plumber"],"city": "Miami, FL","cookieKvStoreName": "cookie-sessions","sessionCookies": "YOUR_API_KEY_HERE","neighborhoods": ["miami-beach-fl"],"scrapeType": "recommendations","category": "all","maxResults": 100,"includeComments": false,"minRecommendations": 0,"proxyConfiguration": {"useApifyProxy": true,"apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"]}}
Input Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Default | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
businessPageUrls | array | - | No | Direct Nextdoor /pages/ URLs to scrape. NO AUTH required. Example: https://nextdoor.com/pages/motz-plumbing-north-miami-fl/ |

cookieStorageKey | string | - | No | Key-Value Store key from Cookie Manager actor (e.g., 'nextdoor-john'). When set, cookies are loaded automatically from the shared KV store — no need to paste sessionCookies manually. Run the Cookie Manager actor first to capture and store your cookies. |
cookieKvStoreName | string | "cookie-sessions" | No | Name of the Key-Value Store where Cookie Manager saves sessions. Default: 'cookie-sessions'. Only change this if you configured a custom store name in Cookie Manager. |

neighborhoods | array | - | No | Neighborhood slugs for authenticated scraping. Requires sessionCookies. Example: 'miami-beach-fl'. Find slugs in Nextdoor URLs: nextdoor.com/neighborhood/SLUG/ |
scrapeType | string | "recommendations" | No | What type of content to scrape in authenticated mode. Only used with sessionCookies. |
searchQuery | string | - | No | Filter results by keyword (e.g., 'plumber', 'pizza'). Applied to all modes. |
category | string | "all" | No | Filter by business category (authenticated mode only) |
maxResults | integer | 100 | No | Maximum number of business profiles to return (default: 100) |
includeComments | boolean | false | No | Extract comments/replies on posts (authenticated mode, slower) |
minRecommendations | integer | 0 | No | Only include businesses with at least this many recommendations |
proxyConfiguration | object | - | No | Proxy settings — RESIDENTIAL recommended for Nextdoor |

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?
