2GIS Places Scraper: Every Result, Contacts

Get every place a 2GIS search finds, not just the first pages: each search is read to the last result 2GIS counts for it, with phones, emails, websites, social profiles, opening hours, rating and reviews count on every row, at no extra cost. Russia, Kazakhstan, the UAE and every other 2GIS city. No account, login or cookies needed.

Tested daily. Latest checks: an Almaty café search read whole, 2,929 places against the 2,926 that 2GIS counts, in under 5 minutes; and 200 places from two UAE searches in English.

What does this Actor do?

You give it search terms and cities, 2GIS category ids, or 2GIS links. For each search it reads the places 2GIS finds and saves one row per place with everything 2GIS lists for it. A source can be:

• a search term in a city, such as кафе in Moscow or dentist in Almaty
• a category in a city, such as 161 (cafes) in Almaty, read whole
• a 2GIS search or category page, such as https://2gis.ru/moscow/search/кафе or https://2gis.ru/moscow/search/Кафе/rubricId/161
• a place page, such as https://2gis.kz/almaty/firm/70000001012345678

Each row comes with:

• the place id, its link, name (full, short and the kind of business), type (a business, or a building or station a search lists)
• the main category, every category with its id, and the 2GIS summary
• the address as shown and in full, its comment (floor, entrance), postcode, street and house number, the building's name, purpose and floor count, landmark, country, region, city and district, and the coordinates
• phones, emails, websites and social profiles (Telegram, WhatsApp, VK, Instagram, YouTube, …), and every contact as 2GIS lists it, with its comment
• opening hours for each day, as a table and as text, and whether it is open 24/7
• the rating and reviews count, the count of rated reviews, the rating of the whole chain, and the rating and reviews count of each review site 2GIS shows
• the organization and brand behind it, and how many branches each has
• the average check, lunch price, payment methods, awards and every feature 2GIS lists (Wi-Fi, delivery, terrace, …), grouped as on 2GIS
• the nearest stops and metro stations with their distance, parking, and entrances
• whether it advertises on 2GIS, and its promotion text
• when 2GIS added and last updated it, its taxpayer id and staff count where 2GIS shows them
• the search it came from, the number of results 2GIS counts for that search, and its position there

Why use it?

• Every result, checked against 2GIS's own count. A search is read page after page until the last result 2GIS counts, thousands of places if the city has them, and the run says for each search whether all of them were read.
• Contacts on every row at no extra cost. Phones, emails, websites and social profiles are part of each place, not a paid add-on.
• Every 2GIS city. Russia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, the UAE, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Georgia, Cyprus, Saudi Arabia and the rest, in the city's own language or another 2GIS has for it.
• Use the data anywhere. Download as JSON, CSV or Excel, or send it to your own tools through Apify's API and integrations.

How much does it cost?

No surcharges and no paid options; an item that fails is not charged.

This Actor is priced per place saved:

• $2 per 1,000 places ($0.002 a place). A place found by two searches in one run is saved and charged once.
• No start fee, nothing per search, and no extra charge for contacts.

So a search of 500 places costs $1. If you set a maximum cost for a run, the Actor stops when it reaches it and keeps every place saved so far.

How long does a run take?

About 10 seconds for the sample (50 places). A whole Almaty café search, 2,926 places by 2GIS's count, took 276 seconds, about 10 places a second; a search read whole is read in two orders, so it takes about twice the pages of a capped one (the price is per place either way).

Good to know

• A search is read to the end. It stops at Max places per search or at the last result 2GIS counts, whichever comes first; the run's status names any search that ended below 2GIS's count.
• The order depends on whether the whole search fits. When Max places per search covers every result, the search is read twice, in name order and by opening date (search_order), because 2GIS answers from servers whose lists differ slightly and no single order lists every place; each place is saved and charged once. When it does not, you get the first places in 2GIS's own order ("relevance"), and 2GIS's reshuffling between pages can leave a capped search a few places short of the cap.
• A city is a 2GIS region. Moscow includes the towns of its oblast, and 2GIS's Dubai covers the whole UAE (search_city says UAE). Add the town or district to the search term to narrow it: restaurant Dubai Marina, cafe Khimki.
• Searches list more than businesses. A search can also list buildings, stations or sights; each row's type says which.
• A place found twice in a run is saved once, with the first search that found it as its source.
• Reviews and photos are not included. Each row has the rating and reviews count, not the review texts or photo links.
• Links with filters are not supported yet. Remove the filters from a 2GIS link, or use the matching category id.
• One search that cannot be read does not stop the run. The others carry on, and the run's status lists the ones that could not be read.
• Check your links first. A link that is not a 2GIS search, category or place page stops the run before anything is read, and the message names it.

FAQ

Do I need a 2GIS account or cookies? No. The Actor reads what anyone can see on 2GIS.

Can I get all the cafes in a city? Yes. Add the cafe category id (161) and the city, or the search term кафе, and raise Max places per search to the number of results you want; the run says whether all of 2GIS's count was read.

Can I keep a list up to date? Yes. Run it on a schedule; each row has updated_at and its position, so you can compare runs.
