Tips for Best Results

Use Real Swiggy City URLs

• Prefer https://www.swiggy.com/city/<city> style URLs for browsing runs.
• City URLs provide the strongest result expansion support.

Keep Result Limits Reasonable

• Start with 20 to validate the dataset shape.
• Increase resultsWanted after confirming the target city or keyword works as expected.

Use Proxies for Stability

• Residential proxies are recommended when you want the most reliable browser-assisted expansions.
• Proxy support is especially helpful when collecting larger city runs.

Proxy Configuration

{
	"proxyConfiguration": {
		"useApifyProxy": true,
		"apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"]
	}

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I run the actor with only a keyword?

Use a keyword together with a Swiggy URL or a location. The actor needs a city context to resolve the correct search area.

Which URLs work best?

Swiggy city URLs and city collection URLs work best, such as the main city page and best-restaurants pages.

Why are some fields missing from certain restaurants?

Swiggy does not expose every field for every listing. The actor removes empty values instead of saving null placeholders.

Does the actor collect dish data too?

The main output is restaurant-focused. For keyword runs, the actor also includes a short list of matching dishes that helped surface each restaurant.

Can I collect every restaurant in a city?

You can collect a substantial number of restaurants, but actual coverage depends on the target city, keyword, and how many additional page expansions Swiggy exposes during the run.
