Sourcelane

Google Maps Scraper

Google Maps

Operated by Sourcelane✓ verified

A Google Maps scraping connector that extracts structured business/place records from Google Maps using HTTP-based requests (no Google Maps API key or browser required). It collects comprehensive place data for each result: names and descriptions, structured addresses (street, city, postal code, state, country, neighborhood), geolocation (latitude/longitude, plus codes) and timezone; contact and commerce info including phone numbers, websites, and emails extracted from business websites; social and booking links; reputation metrics such as ratings, review counts, price levels, business status and hotel stars; full weekly opening hours, current open status and human-readable open/close text; rich content like categories, attributes/amenities (delivery, accessibility, payments), menus with sections/items/prices where available, and up to dozens of photos. Optionally attaches recent reviews per place with reviewer metadata, ratings, text, language, timestamps, review photos and owner replies. Supports direct place lookups by Google Maps links or Place IDs and can bias searches by language, country or geographic coordinates.

Request params

FieldTypeRequiredDescription
searchQueriesarrayoptionalWhat to search on Google Maps, one query per line — e.g. "coffee shops in Amsterdam", "dentists near Austin TX", "hotels near Central Park". Include the city/area in the query for best results.
placeUrlsarrayoptionalScrape specific places directly. Accepts full Google Maps place URLs, maps.app.goo.gl short links, ?cid= links, Google Place IDs (ChIJ…), or hex IDs (0x…:0x…). Can be combined with search queries.
maxPlacesPerQueryintegeroptionalMaximum number of places to scrape for each search query. Google Maps returns at most ~120 results per query. Set 0 to take everything Google returns. Capped at 100 per call.
maxReviewsPerPlaceintegeroptionalHow many reviews to fetch for each place (newest first). Reviews are attached to the place record under `reviews`. Set 0 to skip reviews (faster).
extractEmailsbooleanoptionalWhen a place lists a website but Google Maps has no email, visit the website and extract a contact email address (mailto: links first, then page text). Adds one request per place.
languagestringoptionalLanguage code for results (names, categories, review text labels), e.g. en, de, fr, es, pt-BR.
countrystringoptionalTwo-letter country code that biases search results, e.g. us, gb, de, au.
latitudenumberoptionalOptional. Center the map search around this latitude. Leave empty to let Google infer the location from the query text.
longitudenumberoptionalOptional. Center the map search around this longitude. Use together with latitude.
zoomintegeroptionalMap zoom used with latitude/longitude — 3 (continent) to 21 (street). Higher zoom = smaller search area. Only used when coordinates are set.

Manual setup (config files, REST, Python) +

Claude Code

Adds the Sourcelane MCP server with your key as a header.

terminal
claude mcp add --transport http sourcelane https://api.usesourcelane.com/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer sl_live_your_agent_key"

Claude Desktop (config file)

Alternative to the connector URL: add to claude_desktop_config.json, then restart Claude.

claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sourcelane": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://api.usesourcelane.com/mcp",
        "--header",
        "Authorization:${AUTH_HEADER}"
      ],
      "env": {
        "AUTH_HEADER": "Bearer sl_live_your_agent_key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor & Windsurf

Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (or Windsurf's mcp_config.json).

mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sourcelane": {
      "url": "https://api.usesourcelane.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer sl_live_your_agent_key"

res = requests.post(
    "https://api.usesourcelane.com/v1/call",
    headers={"Authorization": "Bearer sl_live_your_agent_key"},
    json={

        "maxResults": 10,
    },
    timeout=300,
)
body = res.json()
print(body["receipt"]["chargedMicros"], "micro-USD for", body["receipt"]["results"], "results")
print(body["data"])
