Search Google Maps places

Automatically search Google Maps places on google.com. Search Google Maps for places, optionally near a location, and get the list Maps shows, in its order: name, address, phone, website, main category and all categories, star rating, number of reviews, price range, coordinates and the Google place id. Use the place id with get_place for the opening hours and with get_place_reviews for the reviews. Google Maps lists at most 120 places for one search; complete is true when that list ended, false when cap stopped it first. A precise query that Maps opens as one place returns that one place. Category names follow hl, or the browser's language when hl is empty.

Input

query required

What to search for, as typed in the Maps search box (e.g. 'tattoo artist', 'pizzeria', 'dentist near me').

gl optional

Region that Maps ranks the results for (e.g. 'fr', 'us'). Empty: the browser's region.

hl optional

Language of the category names (e.g. 'en', 'fr'). Empty: the browser's language.

cap optional

How many places to return at most. Google Maps lists at most 120 places for one search.

Default: 80
location optional

Optional place added after the query (e.g. 'Paris', 'Brooklyn'). Without it, Maps searches around the browser's own location.

Output

n required

Number of places returned.

records required
complete required

true when Maps has no more places for this search (its list ended, or reached its limit of 120). false when cap stopped the list first.

No. It only uses pages of google.com that are reachable without signing in.

google.com

Search Google

Run a Google search and return one page of organic results (title, url, site, byline, meta, snippet), with Google's link wrappers resolved to the destination url. Results can be personalized to the browser's Google account and location. Narrow queries return the same results in the same order on replay; very broad ones may reorder. For more coverage, fetch several pages or split the query (different site: paths, phrases, or freshness windows), and dedupe by url. An empty list means Google found nothing; when Google shows its anti-bot check, the run fails and says so.

Search Gmail

Search the signed-in Gmail with the native query syntax (from:, to:, subject:, has:attachment, after:/before:, labels…) and return matching threads: threadId (feed it to get_thread / reply_to_email), sender, senderEmail, subject, snippet, date, unread, starred, hasAttachment. Results are threads rather than individual messages, which is Gmail's own search granularity, and only the first page of results is returned (up to 50).
