## 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

## Google Search Results (SERP) Scraper 🔎

Get **Google search results** as clean rows — organic title, URL, displayed URL, snippet, and position — plus related searches, for any query, country, and language.

Perfect for SEO rank tracking, keyword research, competitor visibility, brand monitoring, lead discovery, and feeding AI/GEO tools.

### What it does

- Organic results with **position**, title, URL, snippet, displayed URL.
- **Related searches** block (optional).
- Localized by country (`gl`) and language (`hl`); paginates to the number of results you ask for.
- Detects Google captcha / consent pages and retries automatically with a fresh residential IP.

### Input

```json
{
  "queries": ["best crm software", "comprar tênis"],
  "country": "us",
  "language": "en",
  "resultsPerQuery": 20,
  "includeRelated": true,
  "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"] }
}
```

### Output (one row per organic result)

```json
{
  "type": "organic",
  "query": "best crm software",
  "position": 1,
  "title": "The 12 Best CRM Software of 2026",
  "url": "https://example.com/best-crm",
  "displayed_url": "example.com › best-crm",
  "snippet": "We tested 30 CRMs...",
  "page": 1,
  "country": "us",
  "language": "en"
}
```

### Notes

- **Residential proxy strongly recommended** — Google blocks datacenter IPs fast. The account running the Actor pays for proxy.
- Reads only the public results page; no login.
- Lower `maxConcurrency` if you see captchas.

# Actor input Schema

## `queries` (type: `array`):

One or more Google search queries.

## `country` (type: `string`):

Two-letter country code for localized results (us, br, gb, de...).

## `language` (type: `string`):

Two-letter interface language (en, pt, es...).

## `resultsPerQuery` (type: `integer`):

How many organic results to collect per query (paginates automatically, 20 per page).

## `includeRelated` (type: `boolean`):

Also output the 'related searches' block for each query.

## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`):

Parallel requests.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Uses Apify's GOOGLE\_SERP proxy by default — purpose-built for Google, avoids blocks/captchas. The account running the Actor pays for proxy usage.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "queries": [
    "best crm software"
  ],
  "country": "us",
  "language": "en",
  "resultsPerQuery": 20,
  "includeRelated": true,
  "maxConcurrency": 4,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": [
      "GOOGLE_SERP"
    ]
  }
}
```

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "queries": [
        "best crm software"
    ],
    "proxyConfiguration": {
        "useApifyProxy": true,
        "apifyProxyGroups": [
            "GOOGLE_SERP"
        ]
    }
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("bgfc97/google-search-serp-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
