Why Google Autocomplete Scraper?

There are a lot of ways to pull data from web autocomplete experiences—here's what sets Google Autocomplete Scraper apart.

Query-level flexibility for keyword research

You provide a query, and you can target results by language and country, making this useful for SEO autocomplete scraper workflows across markets.

Supports prefix and suffix expansions

Enable use_prefix and/or use_suffix to generate additional query variants automatically, which helps you expand beyond a single seed phrase like a Google autocomplete keyword tool would.

Clean, structured output for automation

Every result is returned in a consistent JSON structure with query and suggestion_XX fields (from suggestion_01 onward), making it straightforward to feed into analysis pipelines and keyword clustering.

Resilient fetching behavior

If a request fails for a generated query variant, the actor returns an empty suggestions list for that variant rather than stopping the entire run—helpful for long autocomplete data scraper sessions.

---

Configuring Your Run

Drop this into your input.json to get started:

{
  "query": "apple watch",
  "language": "English",
  "country": "United States",
  "use_prefix": false,
  "use_suffix": true
}

Parameter	Required	What It Does
query	✅	The search term to get suggestions for
language	⬜	Select your language (mapped internally to a language code)
country	⬜	Select your country (mapped internally to a country code)
use_prefix	⬜	Whether to add alphabetic prefixes to the query
use_suffix	⬜	Whether to add alphabetic suffixes to the query

Core Capabilities

Autocomplete suggestions for a single query (and more)

Google Autocomplete Scraper fetches suggestions for your provided seed query. If you turn on prefix or suffix generation, it also pulls suggestions for those additional variants—ideal for broad keyword suggestions scraper runs.

Language and country targeting

By setting language and country, you can tailor autocomplete extraction to the context of your audience, making your keyword suggestions scraper dataset more relevant.

Prefix and suffix keyword expansion

With use_prefix and use_suffix, this Google autocomplete keyword research tool can help you discover more long-tail query forms than you’d get from a single seed phrase.

Structured output ready for analysis

The actor formats each result as an object with query plus suggestion_01 through suggestion_10. This makes the output integration-ready for downstream keyword research, reporting, or content planning.

Run-friendly for automation

Results are pushed to the actor’s default dataset in a structured format, which makes it easier to run Google suggest keyword scraper jobs repeatedly for different keywords over time.

Integrations & Export Options

Once your data is collected, Google Autocomplete Scraper plugs directly into your existing workflow.

You can download your results from the Apify dataset tab as JSON, CSV, or Excel. If you want to push data into other tools, you can use Apify’s native integrations or no-code automation like Zapier and Make (Integromat) to move autocomplete data scraper outputs automatically.

For developers and data engineers, you can also use the Apify API to retrieve run results programmatically (see the Apify API docs). For orchestration, consider webhooks to trigger downstream actions (like syncing to a CRM or notifying a Slack channel) when a run completes, and set up scheduled runs so autocomplete keyword research runs automatically on a cron schedule.

Reliability & Performance

What We Handle	How
Rate limiting	Built for steady, run-friendly data collection from public sources
Generated query variants	Fetching continues across variants so one failure doesn’t stop the whole run
Error handling	If a fetch fails, that variant returns no suggestions instead of breaking output format
Output consistency	Always returns query plus suggestion_XX fields (where available)

Limitations: This actor works with publicly available autocomplete suggestions and returns the top portion of suggestions as structured records. Private, login-gated, or non-public content is not accessible.

For enterprise-scale runs, contact us to discuss custom configurations.

How many results can I get per run?

Each formatted suggestion object includes suggestion_01 through suggestion_10. If you enable use_prefix and/or use_suffix, the actor creates additional query variants and returns structured suggestion sets for each variant.

The data freshness corresponds to when you run the actor. For the most current keyword suggestions scraper output, schedule runs to refresh your dataset periodically.

Is this legal? Does it comply with GDPR / CCPA?

Can I access this via API?

Yes. You can access run results programmatically using the Apify API (see Apify API docs).

What happens if the actor hits an error?

If a fetch fails for a particular generated query variant, the actor logs the error and returns an empty suggestions list for that variant while allowing the run to complete. The output format stays consistent so you can still process partial results safely.
