🚀 How to Use

Step 1: Configure Your Search

Enter search queries or paste Google Maps URLs directly:

{
  "searchQueries": ["restaurants in New York", "dentists in Los Angeles"],
  "startUrls": [
    { "url": "https://www.google.com/maps/place/..." }
  ],
  "maxResults": 200,
  "extractEmails": true
}

Step 2: Run the Actor

Click Start — the scraper will:

1. Search Google Maps for your queries
2. Scroll through all results (smart pagination, not just page 1)
3. Visit each business listing and extract all data
4. Visit the business website to extract emails & social links
5. Deduplicate results automatically

Step 3: Export Your Data

Download results as JSON, CSV, Excel, or connect via the Apify API:

// Fetch results via API
const { ApifyClient } = require('apify-client');
const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_TOKEN' });

const run = await client.actor('YOUR_ACTOR_ID').call({
    searchQueries: ['coffee shops in Seattle'],
    maxResults: 100,
    extractEmails: true
});

const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items); // Array of business objects

# Python example
from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("YOUR_ACTOR_ID").call(run_input={
    "searchQueries": ["coffee shops in Seattle"],
    "maxResults": 100,
    "extractEmails": True
})

for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item["businessName"], item["emailsString"])

❓ FAQ

How many results can I scrape?

Up to 1,000 per run. Set maxResults to your desired number. For larger datasets, run multiple queries.

Does it extract emails from every business?

It visits the business website listed on Google Maps and extracts email addresses found on the page. Not every business lists an email on their website, but most do — typical extraction rate is 40–60%.

Can I scrape specific business URLs?

Yes. Use startUrls to pass individual Google Maps business URLs directly instead of search queries.

What format is the output?

Flat JSON with no nested objects. Export as CSV, JSON, or Excel. Connects to Google Sheets, Airtable, and any CRM via the Apify API.

Is it a Google Maps API alternative?

Yes. The official Google Places API charges $0.032 per request with limited fields. This actor gives you more data fields at a fraction of the cost — no API key needed.

Can I schedule recurring runs?

Yes. Use Apify's built-in scheduler for daily, weekly, or custom schedules. Great for monitoring new businesses or tracking rating changes.

How fast is it?

Typically 3–5 seconds per business (including email extraction). A run of 100 businesses takes about 5–10 minutes depending on proxy speed.

What proxies should I use?

Apify's residential proxies work best for Google Maps. You can also use your own proxy configuration.
