Apple Maps Business Profile

Fetch one business's Apple Maps listing - name, address, phone, rating, categories, coordinates.

When to use this

You want to know whether your Apple Business Connect profile exists and whether its NAP matches everywhere else. An unclaimed or wrong Apple listing is invisible to Google-based audits but very visible to anyone using Siri or Maps on an iPhone.

POST/v1/business/apple-profile

Cost: 5 credits ($0.025), or 3 credits ($0.015) with muid

Rate Limit: Varies by plan

Response: ~10-25 seconds

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
business_name	string	Yes	Business name
location	string	Yes	City and state

Response Fields

Field	Type	Description
matched	boolean	Whether a listing was found for this business
listing	object \| null	The listing, or null when nothing matched. Same shape as a results[] row
listing.platform_id	string	Apple's MUID or Bing's place_id
listing.address	string	Address as the platform lists it
listing.phone	string	Phone as the platform lists it
listing.claimed	boolean \| null	false when Apple states the listing was never claimed; null when Apple says nothing. Apple never reports a listing as claimed, so true does not occur
listing.data_source	string	Who Apple credits for the record - "yelp", "foursquare", or empty when Apple credits no one
listing.rank	integer \| null	null on a profile lookup - the listing is fetched by ID, not ranked

Notes

matched:false with listing:null means no Apple listing was found - usually an unclaimed Apple Business Connect profile. That is a finding, not an error.
Check data_source before reporting a website mismatch. When it names a provider, Apple ingested the record from that provider and the website is their page by design, not the business's own site.
The lookup never guesses: if nothing matches the business name it returns unmatched rather than a different business.
Store listing.platform_id and pass it back as muid on later calls - repeat checks then cost 3 credits instead of 5.
