Google Maps Business Leads Scraper

Collect public business listings from Google Maps for local research and outreach planning. Records can include contact details, ratings, opening hours, business attributes, public social links, and photos when Maps displays them.

The Actor returns business information visible on public listings and profiles. It does not create lead scores or verify that a public email address is deliverable.

Dataset

Each dataset row represents one business and includes businessName and mapsUrl. It can also include:

• Identity and category: business name, place ID, CID, category, Maps profile URL, and public description.
• Contact and location: address, phone, website, public email addresses, social links, and coordinates.
• Ratings and hours: displayed rating and review count, price information, current status, and weekly opening hours.
• Profile details: visible services, accessibility, business attributes, aggregate review summary and topics, menu highlights, and owner updates.
• Photos: public listing and profile image URLs with visible photo-count information.
• Website profile: if website enrichment is enabled, website-derived organization and menu information is grouped separately from the Maps listing.

Review and rating summaries are aggregate business information. Individual review text, reviewer identities, and reviewer media are not collected. Values from a linked website are public website information, not automatically verified Maps facts.

{
  "businessName": "Harbor Coffee",
  "title": "Harbor Coffee",
  "categoryName": "Coffee shop",
  "categories": ["Coffee shop"],
  "address": "10 Example Street, Seattle, WA 98101, United States",
  "phone": "+1 206-555-0100",
  "website": "https://harbor.example/",
  "emailAddresses": ["hello@harbor.example"],
  "rating": 4.6,
  "reviewCount": 3206,
  "currentStatus": "Open · Closes 6 pm",
  "openingHours": ["Monday: 7:30 AM–5:00 PM"],
  "socialProfiles": [
    { "platform": "instagram", "profileUrl": "https://instagram.com/harborcoffee" }
  ]
}

The example is illustrative. Maps may not show every field for every business. Download the dataset from the Apify run page in JSON, CSV, Excel, or another supported format. Run totals and source outcomes appear in the run output.

Limits and troubleshooting

Google Maps results and profile details can vary by query, location, language, and time. Optional profile visits are disabled by default; failed profile visits do not remove a valid result-card record. If a run returns no or partial results, check the run log and summary.

The Actor uses public Maps pages and does not bypass CAPTCHAs or other access controls. A proxy does not guarantee more results.

Privacy

The Actor sends search phrases, locations, and supplied Maps URLs to Google Maps. If website enrichment is enabled, it also visits the public website linked from a selected business profile. Avoid submitting sensitive information. This independent Actor is not affiliated with Google.
