Google Search Results Scraper

Turn a Google search query into a dataset you can review, export or use in your workflow. Find relevant pages for web research, competitor analysis and market research, with controls for where and when to search.

Key features

• Structured results: titles, URLs, snippets and search positions, with one organic result per dataset row.
• Localized searches: set the country, interface language and geographic location.
• Time filters and pagination: narrow the time range, choose a results page and request up to 100 results. Availability depends on the search response.
• Export and integration: download JSON or CSV, or start runs and retrieve results through the Apify API.

Example output

The Organic search results dataset contains rows in this format. This is an illustrative example, not a live search result:

{
  "query": "battery recycling research",
  "position": 1,
  "title": "Example battery recycling research",
  "link": "https://example.com/battery-recycling",
  "snippet": "An illustrative summary of a research page.",
  "request_id": "req_example"
}

Complete search response contains the full response, including additional SERP fields such as related searches and People Also Ask when available.

Quick start

1. Get a FlashData API key with google_search access and available Credits.
2. Enter your Search query and key in the encrypted FlashData API key field. Adjust optional settings if needed.
3. Click Start, then open Organic search results to view or export the data.

Example input for one search:

  "flashdataApiKey": "YOUR_FLASHDATA_API_KEY",

  "num": 10,
  "gl": "us",
  "hl": "en"
}

flashdataApiKey	Yes	Your FlashData API key, stored as encrypted input.

Pricing

Searches use Credits from your FlashData account at your applicable FlashData rate. This Actor adds no service fee. Apify compute, storage and other platform usage are billed separately under your Apify plan.

Clicking Start performs the search directly. A new run is a new request; additional queries and pages incur separate usage.

FAQ

Why did I receive fewer results than requested?

num is a requested count, not a guarantee. The response may contain fewer organic results or none. Check Complete search response for the full result.

Does this return full articles?

It returns search results and snippets. Fetching the full text of linked pages requires a separate tool.

Are related searches and People Also Ask included?

When the provider returns them, they are preserved in Complete search response. The dataset table contains organic results only.

What should I do if a run fails?

For authentication errors, check that your key is active, has google_search access and sufficient Credits. After a timeout or interrupted run, check the saved response and FlashData Jobs/usage before starting again: the request may already have been charged. Restarting the same run does not automatically repeat an attempted search; starting a new run can create another charge.

Support

For help, open an issue on this Actor or email support@flashdata.dev with the run URL or request ID. Keep API keys out of support messages and shared run data.
