Latenode

Automatically Sync Google Maps Business Data to a Spreadsheet

This automation workflow allows users to efficiently scrape business data from Google Maps, including names, contact details, and reviews, and export the structured information into a spreadsheet or database.

The workflow uses the SerpAPI service to retrieve Google Maps search results, which are then transformed and appended to a Google Sheet. This enables users to generate leads, conduct market analysis, and gain valuable insights from the collected data in a cost-effective and scalable manner.

How Latenode estimates time and cost

Latenode bills workflow runs in credits: 1 credit = 30 seconds of processing. Minimum charge per run depends on your plan. Plug-and-Play (PnP) AI nodes are billed separately—each PnP token is $1 USD, charged pay-as-you-go at vendor cost plus a small processing fee, with no API keys required.

How it works

1
Trigger

Retrieve Google Maps Data

The workflow starts by using the SerpAPI service to fetch business listings from Google Maps based on a user's search query. This initial step retrieves the basic business information such as name, address, and contact details.

2
Action

Extract Business Details

For each business listing returned in the previous step, the workflow fetches additional data such as reviews, ratings, and business hours using the Google Business Profile integration. This enriches the dataset with more comprehensive information about each listed business.

3
Action

Transform Data

The workflow then uses custom JavaScript logic to normalize and structure the raw place data, ensuring a consistent format for the collected information. This step prepares the data for seamless integration with a spreadsheet or database.

4
Action

Append to Spreadsheet

Finally, the processed business data is appended to a Google Sheet, enabling users to easily access, analyze, and export the information for lead generation, market research, and other business intelligence purposes.
