The workflow
- Run Google Maps search with a query and a location, such as dentists in Austin. Set website to "without" to keep places that list no website, or minRating to keep well rated ones.
- Every hit is a full card. For places you already hold by Maps URL, Google Maps places returns the same card: rating, review keywords, contact, address, hours, popular times and socials.
- For the person behind a business, run LinkedIn searchPeople with the business name as the query and titles such as Owner or Founder.
- Check the headline and current position, then send the LinkedIn handle to contacts reveal. Ask for ["email"] alone when you do not need the number.
- Write the rows to your CRM with the date each was measured, and run it on a schedule from your own job to catch new places.

The operations in this workflow
Questions people ask.
Does the Google Maps search return phone numbers?
Each hit is a full place card with the contact details the place lists on Maps, along with address, hours and rating. A place that lists no phone has none to return.
How do I get the owner's email?
Find the owner's LinkedIn profile with people search, then send the handle to the contacts reveal operation. A part that comes back empty is not charged, and a part your account already holds is free.
Can I find businesses without a website?
Yes. Set website to "without" on the search and only places that list no website come back.
Where should the LinkedIn handle come from?
From evidence: a people search result or a pasted profile URL. A handle guessed from a name can belong to someone else and is still charged.

The playground runs any endpoint by hand: pick a platform and what you want from it, fill a short form named in plain words (or press Use sample input), see the free quote on the Run button, run it, then read the answer as a table or JSON and download it as CSV or JSON. The same call is written out as cURL, Python and Node while you type.
Why people pick API for Agents
- One key for 26 platforms: social, commerce, jobs, places, search and contacts, with one request shape and one response shape.
- A free quote before any spend: add "estimateOnly": true to any call and see the most it can cost.
- Pay per record in US dollars. No subscription, nothing expires, top-ups from $5.
- $0.10 free to try, no card. An AI agent can sign itself up in one request; a person claims it later.
- Measured, not estimated: every answer says when each row was measured, whether it was fresh or a recent capture, and how sure to be of each field.
- Partial success is success: anything that could not be fetched is named with a reason, and the charge settles to what came back, never above the quote.
- Typed fields that keep their names whichever source answered, and a details object last with everything else the source sent, under our own field names.
- Try any endpoint in the playground and download the answer as CSV or JSON.
