## What's an Apify Actor?

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.

- Phone number, website, and email
- Full address with latitude/longitude
- Rating, review count, and price range
- Opening hours (today's status + full weekly schedule)
- Up to 10 gallery photos per business
- Top 5 customer reviews with author, rating, and text
- Service options (dine-in, delivery, takeout, etc.)
- Popular times data

### Sample output

```json

  "latitude": 33.758,
  "longitude": -84.386,
  "open_now": true,
  "hours": ["Monday: 8:00 AM - 10:00 PM", "Tuesday: 8:00 AM - 10:00 PM"],
  "price_range": "$$",
  "price_level": 2,
  "categories": ["Hotel", "Wedding venue"],
  "service_options": ["In-store shopping", "Delivery"],
  "photos": ["https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/...", "..."],
  "thumbnail": "https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/...",

      "author": "Jane D.",
      "rating": 5,
      "text": "Amazing stay, the hot tub was perfect.",
      "date": "2 weeks ago"
    }
  ],
  "maps_url": "https://www.google.com/maps/place/...",
  "search_query": "hotels with hot tub in Atlanta Georgia"
}
````

### Input

#### Mode 1: Search query + locations (bulk by city)

```json
{
  "searchQuery": "hotels with hot tub",
  "location": ["Atlanta, Georgia", "Miami, Florida", "Chicago, Illinois"],
  "resultsWanted": 100,
  "scrapeDetails": true
}
```

#### Mode 2: Full search queries

```json
{
  "searchQueries": [
    "hotels with hot tub in Atlanta Georgia",
    "spa resorts in Miami Florida"
  ],
  "resultsWanted": 100
}
```

### Input fields

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `searchQuery` | string | — | What to search: `"hotels with hot tub"` |
| `location` | string\[] | — | Cities: `["Atlanta, Georgia"]` |
| `searchQueries` | string\[] | — | Full queries (overrides query + location) |
| `resultsWanted` | integer | 100 | Max results per query (up to 500) |
| `minRating` | number | 0 | Only return places rated ≥ this value |
| `category` | string | — | Filter results by category keyword (e.g. `"hotel"`) |
| `scrapeDetails` | boolean | true | Visit each listing page for full details (phone, hours, photos, reviews). Disable for listing-only bulk mode. |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object | Residential US | Proxy settings |

### Use cases

- Lead generation: collect phone numbers and websites for local businesses
- Hotel and travel research: find properties with specific amenities across cities
- Competitive intelligence: track ratings, reviews, and pricing in any market
- Real estate and location analysis: map businesses near a target area

### Notes

- Google Maps shows up to ~120 results per search
- Detail scraping adds ~2–5 seconds per listing
- Datacenter proxies included; residential proxies recommended for high volumes
- No Google API key required

# Actor input Schema

## `searchQuery` (type: `string`):

What to search for. E.g. 'restaurants', 'hotels with spa', 'dentist'. Combined with Location if provided.

## `location` (type: `array`):

City/region names. Combined with Search Query. E.g. \['Atlanta, Georgia', 'Miami, Florida']

## `searchQueries` (type: `array`):

Complete search strings to run individually. Overrides Search Query + Location. E.g. \['hotels in Atlanta GA', 'spas near Miami FL']

## `resultsWanted` (type: `integer`):

Max results per search query.

## `minRating` (type: `number`):

Only return places with this rating or higher (1.0–5.0). 0 = no filter.

## `category` (type: `string`):

Only return places matching this category keyword (e.g. 'hotel', 'restaurant', 'spa'). Case-insensitive.

## `scrapeDetails` (type: `boolean`):

Visit each place's page to extract phone, website, opening hours, price range, gallery photos, and top reviews. Recommended. Disable for faster bulk listing only.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Proxy to bypass rate limits. Residential recommended for high volumes.

// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "location": [
        "Atlanta, Georgia"
    ],

};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("rupom888/google-maps-scraper").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);
