## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Google Autocomplete Keywords

Turn seed phrases into structured Google autocomplete suggestions for SEO research, content planning, product discovery, paid-search ideation, and AI-agent workflows.

The Actor calls Google's public autocomplete service directly. It does not open a browser, scrape search-result pages, or require an API key.

### What you get

Each unique suggestion is one dataset item with:

- original seed and exact request phrase
- suggested query and its returned position
- expansion label
- country and language settings
- collection timestamp

Empty or duplicated suggestions are not billed as extra dataset items.

### Input

```json
{
  "queries": ["best crm for small business", "email marketing software"],
  "expansionMode": "alphabet",
  "countryCode": "US",
  "languageCode": "en",
  "maxSuggestionsPerRequest": 10,
  "maxTotalResults": 500
}
```

`expansionMode` can submit only the seed, append `a` through `z`, add common question prefixes, or do both. `maxTotalResults` is always a hard output and price ceiling.

### Output example

```json
{
  "seedQuery": "best crm for small business",
  "requestQuery": "best crm for small business a",
  "suggestion": "best crm for small business and marketing",
  "position": 1,
  "expansion": "suffix-a",
  "countryCode": "US",
  "languageCode": "en"
}
```

### Automation and AI agents

Use the API, OpenAPI, MCP, Python, JavaScript, CLI, webhook, or scheduling examples in the Actor's **API** tab. The stable one-suggestion-per-row shape works well for clustering, topic maps, content briefs, and scheduled keyword monitoring.

### Limits and responsible use

Autocomplete suggestions are dynamic and can vary by time, market, language, and Google's own systems. They are not search-volume estimates. Keep request volume reasonable and respect applicable Google terms and local law.

# Actor input Schema

## `queries` (type: `array`):

One keyword or phrase per line.

## `expansionMode` (type: `string`):

None sends each seed once. Alphabet adds a-z suffixes. Questions adds common question prefixes. All does both.

## `countryCode` (type: `string`):

Two-letter Google market code, such as US, GB, CA, AU, or DE.

## `languageCode` (type: `string`):

Google interface language, such as en, es, fr, or de.

## `maxSuggestionsPerRequest` (type: `integer`):

Maximum suggestions saved for each seed or expansion request.

## `maxTotalResults` (type: `integer`):

Hard output and price ceiling across the entire run.

## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`):

Maximum autocomplete requests performed at once.

## `timeoutSeconds` (type: `integer`):

Stop waiting for an autocomplete request after this many seconds.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "queries": [
    "best crm for small business"
  ],
  "expansionMode": "none",
  "countryCode": "US",
  "languageCode": "en",
  "maxSuggestionsPerRequest": 10,
  "maxTotalResults": 1000,
  "maxConcurrency": 5,
  "timeoutSeconds": 20
}
```

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

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

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("scrapesignal_labs/google-autocomplete-keywords").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);
});

## Python example

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

# Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
# Replace '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token.
client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = {}

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("scrapesignal_labs/google-autocomplete-keywords").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print(f"💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run.default_dataset_id}")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():
    print(item)

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{}' |
apify call scrapesignal_labs/google-autocomplete-keywords --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,scrapesignal_labs/google-autocomplete-keywords"
        }
    }
}

```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
