It has two run modes. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md. ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. 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 examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below. 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`). # README ### 🚀 Yandex Maps Scraper Extract businesses and places from Yandex Maps, the dominant map service across Russia, Kazakhstan, Belarus and the wider CIS region. The **Yandex Maps Scraper** turns any search into clean rows with name, category, address, coordinates, phones, website, opening hours, ratings and, optionally, the newest reviews, ready for lead generation, local-market research and reputation monitoring. ### ✨ Features - 📍 **Search like a user**: Type queries exactly as you would in Yandex Maps, e.g. `кафе Москва`, `стоматология Казань` or `pizza Berlin`, and get every place the map returns. - 🗺️ **Beyond the first page**: The scraper scans the map area by area, so one query can return hundreds of places instead of the 25 shown on screen. - 📞 **Rich place data**: Categories, full address, postal code, coordinates, phones, website, social links (Telegram, WhatsApp, VK…), weekly opening hours, open-now status, photo count, verified-owner flag and attributes like average bill, delivery or Wi-Fi. - ⭐ **Ratings & reviews**: Average rating, rating and review counts on every place, plus up to 50 newest reviews per place with text, rating, author, date, likes and the business's reply. - 🔗 **Direct place URLs**: Paste Yandex Maps place pages to refresh specific businesses, for example your own locations or a competitor list. - 🌐 **Russian or English**: Choose the output language for names, categories and addresses. ### 🛠️ How It Works 1. **Enter search queries** – One per line, including the city or area: `кафе Москва`, `автосервис Алматы`, `hotel Minsk`. 2. **Set the scope** – Choose **Max places** and, if you need review text, switch on **Include reviews** and set **Max reviews per place**. 3. **Run the scraper** – Get one row per place, with its reviews nested inside when enabled. ### 📊 Sample Output Data ```json [ { "id": "175810691116", "title": "Sakhalin", "url": "https://yandex.ru/maps/org/sakhalin/175810691116/", "categories": ["Restaurant"], "address": "Moscow, Smolenskaya Street, 8", "fullAddress": "Moscow, Smolenskaya Street, 8", "city": "Moscow", "country": "Russian Federation", "postalCode": "121099", "lat": 55.746177, "lng": 37.580343, "phones": ["+7 (495) 647-64-79"], "website": "https://sakhalin-moscow.ru/", "socialLinks": [ { "type": "telegram", "url": "https://t.me/sakhalinmoscowrest" }, { "type": "whatsapp", "url": "https://wa.me/79037913012" } ], "rating": 5, "ratingCount": 12937, "reviewCount": 5352, "isOpenNow": true, "workingStatus": "Open until 12:00 AM", "workingHours": "daily, 12:00 PM–12:00 AM", "photosCount": 500, "logoUrl": "https://avatars.mds.yandex.net/get-altay/16069310/2a00000196f30623e107fa942b9854560360/L", "chainName": null, "hasVerifiedOwner": true, "isAdvert": true, "awards": ["goodPlaceYear 2026", "ultimaGuide 2023"], "metro": [{ "name": "Smolenskaya", "distance": "390 m" }], "features": [ { "name": "average bill", "value": "5000–10000 ₽" }, { "name": "food delivery", "value": true } ], "aiSummary": null, "query": "кафе Москва", "reviews": [ { "reviewId": "kvOn2kVF2Whz8KVXixFaaY5C7bGMWLm", "author": "Elchin Gasanov", "authorLevel": "Level 8 Local Expert", "rating": 5, "text": "This office impresses with its well-thought-out design, spacious work areas and …", "language": "en", "publishedAt": "2025-11-06T12:19:21.825Z", "likes": 4, "dislikes": 5, "photosCount": 0, "businessReply": "Очень здорово, что вам понравилось!
