How to parse results for a specific user country, not US by default?

Closed

By default, I get results as if I was searching from USA. I need to choose other countries to parse from. I am parsing prices for hotels, they are always in USD for travel sites in USA. I need to see prices of hotels from travel sites in other user countries and other currencies. Is it possible to parse results by choosing a specific user country of google maps?

Hey,

I apologize for late response. Unfortunately this is currently not possible. We plan to create a new actor that will focus on hotels and their prices, but it won't be ready anytime soon.

Hey again,

I just realized that you can edit proxy configuration of your run to use a proxy from a specific country. To do that, you need to use JSON editor to edit actor's input and add the following:

1// rest of your input
2    "proxyConfig": {
3        "groups": [
4          "RESIDENTIAL"
5        ],
6        "countryCode": "JP"
7  }

Set the countryCode attribute to the country you want to scrape from.

Just note that using residential proxies might increase the cost of your run.
