## FAQ

### How do I find contractor leads in several cities at once?

Every search term runs in every place, so 3 trades in 3 Texas cities give 9 searches. Each business has name, category, city, phone, website, rating, reviews count and opening hours.

### How do I change the trades or cities?

Edit Search terms (plumber, electrician, roofing contractor) to any trades, like HVAC or landscaper, and replace Austin, Texas; Dallas, Texas and Houston, Texas in Places with your own cities.

### How many contractors can I get per trade and city?

Max places per search accepts 1 to 700 for each search term and place. This task is saved at 50.

### Can I search by map coordinates instead of city name?

Yes. Places accepts latitude,longitude with an optional zoom from 3z to 21z, for example 40.7580,-73.9855,15z. Countries alone are not accepted.

### Do I need to log in to Google to get these leads?

No. Contractor leads are collected with no login.

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/unseenuser/google-maps-businesses.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
