Google About This Result Scraper

Google About This Result Scraper collects the information Google displays in the About this result panel for organic search results. It saves the result details and visible panel facts in an Apify dataset so you can compare how Google describes sources across searches and locales.

What information can it collect?

For search results where Google displays the panel, a dataset row can include the result title, website domain, result link, position, panel text, and a list of distinct facts. Search term, country, language, and scrape date help you understand the context for each result. Google may not show a panel for every result, and optional facts are omitted when they are unavailable.

Use the dataset to review source descriptions, compare search results across locales, or organize publicly displayed search context for research and reporting.

How to use the Actor

1. Open the Actor's Input tab and enter a Google search query.
2. Choose how many result panels to collect and select the country and language for the search.
3. Select Start. When the run finishes, open its dataset to view or download the collected panels.

You can schedule the Actor in Apify or retrieve its dataset through the Apify API. The Input tab lists all available settings.

Input example

{
  "query": "renewable energy research",
  "maxItems": 5,
  "gl": "us",
  "hl": "en"
}

query is required. maxItems accepts 1–10 and limits the number of result panels collected. Use a two-letter country code for gl and a language code for hl to choose the search locale.
