This actor automates extracting route directions from Google Maps. Using Node.js and Puppeteer, it retrieves travel routes, distances, and estimated times for various transport modes, offering structured data for navigation, logistics, or travel planning applications.
You can access the Google Direction Scraper programmatically from your own JavaScript applications by using the Apify API. You can also choose the language preference from below. To use the Apify API, you’ll need an Apify account and your API token, found in Integrations settings in Apify Console.
1import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';
2
3// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
4// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
5const client = new ApifyClient({
6 token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
7});
8
9// Prepare Actor input
10const input = {
11 "source": "New York",
12 "destination": "Washington"
13};
14
15// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
16const run = await client.actor("dev_bodex/google-direction-scraper").call(input);
17
18// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
19console.log('Results from dataset');
20console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
21const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
22items.forEach((item) => {
