## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Naver Map Autocomplete API

Get Naver Map instant-search place candidates and place IDs for a Korean query.

### What does this Actor do?

The Actor sends one query to Naver Map's instant-search endpoint and returns
the place candidates in the public response.

### What data does it return?

- Original query and candidate count
- Naver place ID and title
- Additional fields present in Naver's instant-search place objects

### Input

```json
{
  "query": "강남역 맛집"
}
```

| Field | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `query` | Yes | Business name or local-search query, up to 100 characters. |
| `failOnError` | No | Fail the run on a crawler server error. |

### Output example

```json
{
  "id": "1234567890",
  "title": "Example Restaurant",
  "query": "강남역 맛집",
  "count": 3,
  "source": "naver_map_instant_search",
  "fallbackApplied": false,
  "proxyUsed": true,
  "success": true,
  "httpStatus": 200
}
```

### Pricing and limits

- Price: **$0.0015 per query**
- Billing event: one successful instant-search query
- Actor compute and the KR Residential proxy are included in the event price.
- The endpoint uses a fixed Seoul-area coordinate and does not accept a custom
  location.
- Candidate fields vary with Naver's response.

### Troubleshooting

- No candidates: add a district or use the full business name.
- Need a broader ranked list: use
  [Naver Map Search](https://apify.com/battery/naver-smartplace-search).
- Need full details for one ID: use
  [Naver Place Detail](https://apify.com/battery/naver-smartplace-detail).
