# Get only new places from a Google Maps scraper run

Chains after the Google Maps Scraper on your account and returns only the places that were not in its previous run, keyed on placeId, instead of the full list every time. The first run records a baseline and reports nothing; from the second run on you get the delta.

**Run it:** [Get only new places from a Google Maps scraper run on Apify](https://apify.com/fayoussef/dataset-diff/examples/new-google-maps-places-only?fpr=youssef&fp_sid=abe_ex_new-google-maps-places-only)
