Google Maps Scraper Orchestrator

For most cases, using Google Maps Extractor should be fast enough to scrape the whole country in a few hours and thus you don't need to use Google Maps Scraper Orchestrator for country-wide scrapes. Google Maps Scraper Orchestrator is a useful actor for running large-scale scrapes with Google Maps Scraper. It enhances the scraper with these features: - The orchestrator accepts a list of locations (optionally with common prefix) - It splits the workload into separate scraper runs to maximally utilize your Apify account memory for maximum speed - It deduplicates and joins the results into a single dataset Use this scraper only if you need these advanced features. Otherwise, use the Google Maps Extractor instead for more convenient setup. ### How to run 1. Open Google Maps Scraper and set up its input. You can also use Google Maps Extractor or Google Maps Email Extractor. 2. Save the input as a new task (top-right button Create new task) - configure everything except location there 3. Copy the created task ID (task ID is part of the page URL, e.g. from https://console.apify.com/actors/tasks/AhTAAhthrgvXST4pI/console copy AhTAAhthrgvXST4pI) 4. Open the Google Maps Scraper Orchestrator (this input) - paste in the task ID and add a list of locations 5. Start the orchestrator. It will continue starting Google Maps Scraper runs until it processes all your inputs. Then it merges the results and stores them in its default dataset.
