I ran executed several runs trying different distances and flipping latlong, but in all cases, there are 0 results whereas there are matching places in google maps. This definitely should have succeeded: https://console.apify.com/actors/nwua9Gu5YrADL7ZDj/runs/EvM76LWe5ptnnntoJ Other runs tried with smaller distance: https://console.apify.com/actors/nwua9Gu5YrADL7ZDj/runs/Xqts0bJGSbLszhmvb https://console.apify.com/actors/nwua9Gu5YrADL7ZDj/runs/2HuObYRmAzlSXrKBe Google maps link showing places: https://www.google.com/maps/search/coffee+columbus+ohio/@39.9889765,-83.0465767,13.6z/data=!4m4!2m3!5m1!4e3!6e5?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI0MDkxNS4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D

May be there is something simple I'm missing? Thanks for taking a look!

Hey,

looking at the logs, lots of places are discarded because they don't match category. Try to add coffee shop to your category filter. Also, flip the lat,lng.

The JSON input should look like this:

{
"categoryFilterWords": [
"coffee shop",
"cafe"
],
"customGeolocation": {
"type": "Point",
"coordinates": [
"-83.0398195",
"39.9894039"
],
"radiusKm": 1
},
"language": "en",
"maxCrawledPlacesPerSearch": 500,
"searchStringsArray": [
"coffee"
]
}
