How to Export Google My Business & Google Maps Data to Excel (Free, 2026)
Google Places has contact data for over 200 million businesses. This guide shows you the fastest, most reliable way to export that data into a clean, ready-to-use Excel spreadsheet — no coding, no technical skills needed.
Two Different Things People Mean by "Export Google My Business to Excel"
"Google My Business" is now called Google Business Profile. When people search for exporting it to Excel, they usually want one of two things:
- A list of other businesses — for example every dentist or restaurant in a city, with phone, address, website and rating, to use as sales leads. That's what most of this guide covers.
- Their own profile's data — the business owner wants a copy of their own listing, reviews or locations.
Exporting your own Google Business Profile data
- Multiple locations: in Business Profile Manager you can download your locations as a spreadsheet, edit them and upload them again.
- A full copy of your data: Google Takeout (takeout.google.com) includes Google Business Profile data — profile details, posts, media and reviews — for profiles you manage.
- Automated reports: developers and agencies managing many profiles can pull data through the Google Business Profile APIs.
For lists of other businesses, Google doesn't offer a download button on Maps — use one of the methods below.
Why Export Google Places Data to Excel?
Sales teams, marketing agencies and field sales reps all need the same thing: a working list of businesses they can actually call or email. Google Maps shows you the data visually — but it doesn't let you download it. Excel is where work actually happens: filtering, sorting, assigning to team members, tracking call outcomes.
The challenge is getting the data from Google into Excel without spending hours on manual copy-paste.

Method 1: Export Directly From GrabNear (Recommended)
This is the fastest method. No technical skills needed.
Search for businesses in GrabNear
Type your target: "IT companies in Hyderabad" or "Restaurants in Koramangala within 3km". Results appear instantly.
Save results to your Leads list
Click to save the results you want. Add notes or statuses as needed. Filter by status or date, or search by name, address or category.
Click Export to Excel
On the Leads page, click the Export button. Your browser downloads a formatted .xlsx file immediately. Open it in Excel or Google Sheets.
Result: A clean Excel file with all 10+ data fields, formatted and ready to use. No blank columns, no reformatting needed, no missing phone numbers.
Method 2: Manual Copy-Paste From Google Maps (Not Recommended)
The manual approach involves opening Google Maps, clicking each business, and copying the details into a spreadsheet one by one. Problems with this method:
- Google Maps only shows ~20 results per page — you have to keep scrolling
- Copy-pasting 100 leads takes 3–5 hours minimum
- Prone to human error — wrong phone numbers, missing addresses
- No way to include lead status or scheduled follow-ups in the export
- Google limits manual access if you do too many searches in a session
Method 3: Google Places API + Custom Script (For Developers)
If you have a developer on your team, you can query the Google Places API directly and write results to a CSV or Excel file. This requires:
- A Google Cloud account with the Places API enabled
- An API key (paid usage after free tier)
- Python or Node.js scripting knowledge
- Handling pagination, rate limits, and data formatting
GrabNear effectively does all of this for you without any setup. For most sales teams, building and maintaining a custom script is not worth the time investment.
