Pull Street View and 360 panoramas for a place by name with a google maps street view api built on the Apify Google Maps Photos API Actor (johnvc/google-maps-photos-api). The official Street View Static endpoint wants a latitude, longitude and heading and returns one rendered tile; this returns a listing of the panoramas actually attached to a business, addressed by its name or its Google Maps URL, as rows with the full-size image url, a thumbnail, gallery position and a stable photo id. Set the category to street_view for panoramas or videos for clips. Use when the user wants a street view api, google street view images for a business, 360 photos of a location, exterior or frontage imagery for site surveys, real estate, insurance or field-service work, without geocoding first. Pay per image returned, MCP-ready for Claude and other AI agents.
