Code to integrate
Click Get code, replace the API key, and run the code directly in your application.
# API Key, get from: https://www.browseract.com/reception/integrations
API_KEY = os.getenv("BROWSERACT_API_KEY", "app-abcdefghijklmn")
You only need to replace:
app-abcdefghijklmn
with your own API key, and the code will run successfully.
You can find your API key in the API & Integrations section of the BrowserAct dashboard.
API Results
BrowserAct returns all Google Maps scraping results directly through the API, with no manual output configuration required.
The API response is delivered as a structured dataset, designed for immediate programmatic consumption. Results are consistently formatted, making them easy to integrate into downstream systems such as CRMs, databases, analytics pipelines, or automation workflows.
Once a task completes, the full result set is available via the API response or retrieval endpoint. The output structure is standardized and does not require field selection or manual export, ensuring predictable and reliable data handling in production environments.
This approach removes UI-level configuration and enables a fully automated, API-first workflow—from from request to results delivery.
