Hey! Just looked at the run and did some testing. It looks like the queue wasn't done loading.

Texas has a lot land to search and the order of operations is the queue needs to load completely first then it will start scraping.

You can continue to scrape all of Texas or you can pick and choose some of the main cities and focus on those first if you want results faster.

Let me know if you have any questions!

hi, now it says " Free trial 30 minutes (expired)"

and it was running for 40 minutes, well more than 30 thus. there was no feedback; it just showed zero results, so one could/would assume that it was malfucntioning

Totally fair, I will add more logging and will look into if I can simultaneously load the queue and scrape to avoid this kind of confusion moving forward. With that, I don't think I have the ability to reactivate the trial but I can help in other ways:

1. Consider https://apify.com/huncho/google-maps-scraper-ppe (it's exact same but the pay per event version), this will cost substantially more for all of Texas because you pay for the results but if you pick 1 city it'd be a good way to test if you're considering the rental version.

2. If you tell me a city in Texas (or anywhere else) that you're interested in I'll send you the first 100 results here for free based on your original search query.

Let me know if that works!

okay i will try https://apify.com/huncho/google-maps-scraper-ppe

and sure, show me the first 100 results for "personal injury attorney" in houston texas, and how many credits it would normally cost; I am nor sure how to gauge that, re "The rent is subtracted from your prepaid usage every month after the free trial period / You also pay for the Apify platform usage."; do i also need a $39 apify account, or is free also okay?

Here you go!

If we extrapolate based on the usage screenshot I sent, all of Houston would be under $2 of credits.

The rental fee is separate from the usage, you pay rental + usage. I think free is ok!

Let me know if you have any more questions!

Thanks! And re the screenshot, I see it was about $0.20 for 220 listings, so just under a penny each; is that the total cost, ie including the Apify usage costs? I just tried the pay-per-event version and that cost about 3x more per result (ie the same as Outscraper), so that would be a big savings. And does the $50/month plan also allow for enhancements/add-ons, or is it kind of fixed in that sense? Eg i notice the listings don't have the image/streetview URL. I think I will try the $50/month plan, as outscraper only drops to $0.001 per listing after 100k scraped listings.
