It's missing some places in broader areas.
I'm using the actor to extract childcare places in North Carolina. I figured that some records are being lost when I search for the entire state rather than searching for a smaller region like a city. It should be missing around 30-40 records.

I'd also like to ask if we can search with a blocklist of ids, this would help us to do another try for those missing ids.
Hi! Exactly as you say, the bigger the initial search area is, the more chance there is that the scraper can skip certain places.
I would recommend giving it a smaller search area or using the custom geolocation parameters.
Unfortunately, as of yet, the actor doesn't allow you to filter out places already scraped, but you can use the Merge, Dedup & Transform Datasets actor to filter only unique places from several datasets. I hope that helps!

Got it. If I use a MultiPolygon to create smaller areas, should it improve the results?
Yes, please give it a try, and if you again run into issues, please reopen this issue so we can investigate further if there is more to the problem. Thanks, and have a great day!
