Google Maps Scraper API
Returns places from Google Maps based on a given search query (or many queries).
The results from searches are the same as you would see by visiting a regular Google Maps site. However, in most cases, it’s important to use locations inside queries (e.g., bars, NY, USA) as the IP addresses of Outscraper’s servers might be located in different countries.
In case no places were found by your search criteria, your search request will consume the usage of one place.
This endpoint is optimized for fast responses and can be used as a real-time API. Set the limit parameter to 10 to achieve the maximum response speed.
