Google Maps MCP Server
A standalone Model Context Protocol server that exposes Google Maps business search as a single MCP tool, backed by Techforce Global's Google Maps Scraper Apify Actor.
Tool
search_google_maps
Search Google Maps for businesses/places by keyword and location.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
searchQueries | string[] | yes | One or more search terms, e.g. "restaurants in Delhi" |
maxResults | integer | no | Max places per query (default 20, max 500) |
language | string | no | Language code for results, e.g. "en" |
Returns structured JSON: business name, address, phone, rating, opening hours, and GPS coordinates.
Authentication
Every request must include your own Apify API token:
Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>
Usage is billed to the token owner's Apify account, not to Techforce Global. Get your token at Apify Console → Settings → Integrations.
Installation
Hosted (recommended)
Connect directly to the hosted endpoint — no install required:
https://<your-vercel-project>.vercel.app/mcp
Example client config (Claude Desktop / any MCP client supporting Streamable HTTP):
{
"mcpServers": {
"google-maps": {
"url": "https://<your-vercel-project>.vercel.app/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer <YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>"
}
}
}
}
Run locally
npm install
npm start
Server listens on http://localhost:4000/mcp.
Deploying on Vercel (free)
This project includes a serverless entry point (api/mcp.js) and a vercel.json rewrite so the
public endpoint is available at a clean /mcp path.
- Go to vercel.com, sign in, click Add New → Project.
- Import this GitHub repo (
Sagar27888/google-maps-mcp-server). - Framework preset: Other. No build command needed — Vercel auto-detects the
api/folder. - Click Deploy.
- The public endpoint becomes available at
https://<your-vercel-project>.vercel.app/mcp.
Deploying on Apify (alternative)
This project is also an Apify Actor configured for Standby mode, which turns it into a long-running HTTP service instead of a one-shot batch job.
- Push this project to an Actor on your Apify account (Apify Console → Actors → Create new → connect this
source, or use the Apify CLI:
apify push). - In the Actor's Settings → Standby, enable Standby mode.
- The public endpoint becomes available at
https://<actor-name>.<your-apify-username>.apify.actor/mcp.
