You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## OpenStreetMap POI Business Search Search one to five locations for a selected local-business category using fixed public OpenStreetMap ecosystem endpoints. ### Output For each matching named business, the Actor returns only: - requested and resolved location - selected business category - business name - public latitude and longitude - public OpenStreetMap object link - source endpoint and collection time It deliberately excludes contact numbers, emails, websites, addresses, opening hours, reviews, and raw source tags. ### Start in four steps 1. Enter up to five city or area names. 2. Select one business category. 3. Select up to 25 businesses per location. 4. Confirm the source and license note, then run. ### Price and limit - **$0.003** per checked location - Maximum **5** locations per run - Maximum buyer charge: **$0.015** per run - The location event is charged before both the geocoding and POI-source requests. If it cannot be charged, the Actor stops before source access. ### Attribution and source note Results are derived from OpenStreetMap ecosystem endpoints. OpenStreetMap data is available under the Open Database License (ODbL). You are responsible for providing appropriate attribution and meeting any applicable ODbL, source-policy, privacy, and legal obligations in your own use or redistribution. This Actor is unofficial and not affiliated with the OpenStreetMap Foundation, Nominatim, or Overpass. # Actor input Schema ## `locations` (type: `array`): One to five city or area names. ## `category` (type: `string`): The OpenStreetMap business type to find. ## `maxResults` (type: `integer`): One to 25. Lower is cheaper and kinder to the public source. ## `acceptSourceRisk` (type: `boolean`): Required. Uses public OpenStreetMap ecosystem endpoints. You must assess authorization and comply with OSM attribution and licence obligations. ## Actor input object example ```json { "locations": [ "Berlin" ], "category": "cafe", "maxResults": 10, "acceptSourceRisk": false } ```` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): Rows include location context, business name, selected category, public coordinates, public OSM URL, and source timestamp. # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "locations": [ "Berlin" ] }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("enfex/openstreetmap-poi-business-search").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
