# Crawler Google Places
|
|
Get data from Google Places, which official [Google Maps Places API](https://developers.google.com/places/web-service/search) does not provide.
|
|
|
|
## Why?
|
|
You can use official [Google Maps Places API](https://developers.google.com/places/web-service/search), it is better way for the most use cases.
|
|
But API doesn't provide:
|
|
|
|
- Popular place times histogram
|
|
- Place reviews (you can get up to 5 reviews from official API)
|
|
- Place photos (you can can up to 10 photos from official API)
|
|
|
|
## INPUT
|
|
Follow guide on [actor detail page](https://www.apify.com/drobnikj/crawler-google-places) to see how it works.
|
|
|
|
Example input:
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"searchString": "pubs near prague",
|
|
"lat": "50.0860729",
|
|
"lng": "14.4135326",
|
|
"zoom": 10
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
On this input actor searches places on this start url: https://www.google.com/maps/search/pubs+near+prague/@50.0860729,14.4135326,10z
