Automate Google Places Data Extraction & Lead List Building
detail.loadingPreview
Effortlessly build local business lead lists by automatically scraping Google Places data. This workflow runs daily, fetching search terms from one Google Sheet, using Dumpling AI to extract details, and saving structured results to another Google Sheet.
About This Workflow
This powerful workflow automates the process of gathering valuable local business data from Google Places, perfect for sales teams, marketers, and researchers. Scheduled to run daily at 1 PM, it begins by reading your predefined search queries (e.g., 'best cafes in London', 'plumbers in Dallas') from a Google Sheet. Each query is then passed to the Dumpling AI search-places API, which intelligently scrapes relevant information. The workflow then meticulously parses the returned data, extracting key details like business title, address, rating, category, phone number, and website, before neatly appending each listing to a designated output Google Sheet. This ensures you always have up-to-date, structured local leads without manual effort.
Key Features
- Daily Automated Execution: Set it and forget it! The workflow runs automatically every day at a specified time.
- Dynamic Search Queries: Easily manage your search terms by updating a dedicated Google Sheet.
- Intelligent Google Places Scraping: Leverage Dumpling AI for accurate and comprehensive data extraction from Google Maps listings.
- Structured Data Output: Automatically organize scraped business details (title, address, rating, website, etc.) into clean Google Sheets columns.
