EXTRACT CONTACT INFO FROM GOOGLE


MAPS

To extract contact information from Google Maps we can use Python and Google Maps API.

Description:

To extract contact information from Google Maps using Python, first set up the Google
Places API by enabling it in the Google Cloud Console and obtaining an API key. Install the
requests library to interact with the API. Use the Find Place From Text API to search for
businesses, and then use the Place Details API to retrieve detailed information such as
phone numbers, websites, and addresses.

2. EXTRACT CONTACT INFO FROM LINKEDIN


Description:​
To extract contact information from LinkedIn using Python, we must first create a LinkedIn
Developer account, obtain our API credentials (Client ID and Client Secret), and request the
necessary API permissions. Using OAuth 2.0 authentication, we can obtain an access token
to access public profile data, including basic profile details and email addresses (if granted
permission). The LinkedIn API provides endpoints to retrieve user information such as name,
headline, and email address, but does not allow scraping of other contact details like phone
numbers. To interact with the API, we can use Python libraries like requests and
requests_oauthlib.

3. EXTRACT CONTACT INFO BY USING WEB


SCRAPPING
Description:​
To extract contact information from any portal using web scraping in Python, we need to
install libraries like requests to send HTTP requests and BeautifulSoup to parse the HTML
content of the website. First, send a request to the website to retrieve the HTML, then use
BeautifulSoup to navigate and extract specific contact information, such as emails and
phone numbers, using regular expressions. For dynamic content, tools like Selenium can be
used to interact with the site and load the data.
