## Run this action

Use the TypeScript SDK for one call. Use `ctx.tools.execute(...)` inside a Play for durable calls, scheduled calls, or CSV processing.

```ts theme={"languages":{"custom":["/languages/deepline-prompt.json"]}}
import { Deepline } from 'deepline';

const deepline = await Deepline.connect();
const result = await deepline.tools.execute(
  'dataforseo_business_data_business_listings_search_live',
  {
    "categories": [
      {}
    ],
    "description": "Example description",
    "title": "VP of Engineering"
  },
);

console.log(result.toolResponse.raw);
```

### CLI

```bash theme={"languages":{"custom":["/languages/deepline-prompt.json"]}}
deepline tools execute dataforseo_business_data_business_listings_search_live --input '{
  "categories": [
    {}
  ],
  "description": "Example description",
  "title": "VP of Engineering"
}' --json
```

## Example response

The SDK returns this shape at `result.toolResponse.raw`. The example values illustrate the response.

```json theme={"languages":{"custom":["/languages/deepline-prompt.json"]}}
{
  "version": "example",
  "status_code": 123,
  "status_message": "example",
  "time": "example",
  "tasks_count": 123,
  "tasks_error": 123,
  "tasks": [
    {}
  ]
}
```

Use `deepline describe dataforseo_business_data_business_listings_search_live --json` for the latest machine-readable contract.

| `payload.is_claimed` | `boolean` | No | — | indicates whether the business is verified by its owner on Google Maps optional field |
| `payload.location_coordinate` | `string` | No | — | GPS coordinates of a location optional field location\_coordinate parameter should be specified in the "latitude,longitude,radius" format the maximum number of decimal digits for "latitude" and "longitude" : 7 the value of "radius" is specified in kilometres (km) the minimum value for "radius" : 1 the maximum value for "radius" : 100000 example: 53.476225,-2.243572,200 |
| `payload.filters` | `array` | No | — | array of results filtering parameters optional field you can add several filters at once (8 filters maximum) you should set a logical operator and , or between the conditions the following operators are supported: regex , not\_regex , \< , \<= , > , >= , = , \<> , in , not\_in , like , not\_like , ilike , not\_ilike , match , not\_match you can use the % operator with like and not\_like to match any string of zero or more characters example: \["rating.value",">",3] you can receive the list of available See the live schema for the complete constraint. |
| `payload.order_by` | `array` | No | — | results sorting rules optional field you can use the same values as in the filters array to sort the results possible sorting types: asc - results will be sorted in the ascending order desc - results will be sorted in the descending order you should use a comma to set up a sorting parameter example: \["rating.value,desc"] note that you can set no more than three sorting rules in a single request you should use a comma to separate several sorting rules example: See the live schema for the complete constraint. |

| `payload.offset_token` | `string` | No | — | token for subsequent requests optional field provided in the identical filed of the response to each request. Use this parameter to avoid timeouts while trying to obtain over 100,000 results in a single request. by specifying the unique offset\_token value from the response array, you will get the subsequent results of the initial task. offset\_token values are unique for each subsequent task Note: if the offset\_token is specified in the request, all other parameters should be identical to the See the live schema for the complete constraint. |
| `payload.tag` | `string` | No | — | user-defined task identifier optional field the character limit is 255 you can use this parameter to identify the task and match it with the result you will find the specified tag value in the data object of the response |
