Google Search Business Extended Reviews API

Scrape Google Search Business Extended Reviews data with one API call. Returns reviews of a place aggregated from the Google reviews element, not only Google users but reputable third-party sources (TripAdvisor, Yelp, Trustpilot). Each review carries its source domain, full text (with original-language translation), star rating, reviewer stats, and owner replies. Identify the place by keyword, cid, or place_id.

Last updated October 2026Maintained by the SocialCrawl team

Returns reviews on a place's Google listing, including ones from sites like TripAdvisor and Yelp, with each review's source, text, star rating, and owner reply.

Use it when you want a place's reviews from Google and third party sites together, rather than product or app reviews.

Google Search API

What can you do with the Business Extended Reviews API?

The Business Extended Reviews endpoint gives you structured Google Search data with computed fields in a single request. No scraping infrastructure to build or maintain.

Example Request

# GET /v1/google/business/extended-reviews: Metered: holds 5 credits per call up front and refunds what the call does not use. Cache hits are free and failed calls are refunded.
# Check the price first for 0 credits: add dry_run=1 to the query. Nothing is fetched or charged.
# --max-time 43: this endpoint's measured p99 latency x 1.5.
# --retry 3: retries timeouts, 429 and 5xx, honoring Retry-After.
# -o response.json keeps only the final attempt's body.
# One Idempotency-Key per request, reused on every retry, so a retried call is never charged twice.
IDEMPOTENCY_KEY=$(od -An -N16 -tx1 /dev/urandom | tr -d ' \n')

Parameters worth sending

  • label=issue Names the product issue each review raises, at no extra credits; sentiment is free too.

Parameters

ParameterRequiredDescription
keywordNoBusiness name + address. Use cid/place_id for an exact match.
cidNoGoogle customer id (cid) of the place.
place_idNoGoogle place_id of the place.
location_nameNoGeographic context as 'City,Region,Country'.
language_nameNoResult language (default 'English').
depthNoNumber of reviews to return (default 20, step 20, max 1000).
labelNoOptional CSV of SocialCrawl labels to add to every review. Without this param every page already carries sentiment and issue, free; label= adds the labels you name to them (the defaults keep running). sentiment and issue are free when asked for too; reports, incentivized and injection add 1 credit per started 25 newly judged reviews. judgments=off (or label=none) turns the default labels off. They read the review's title and text, never its stars. sentiment: how the reviewer feels, on five levels (level 0 to 4, score_0_1, confidence), plus rating_mismatch, true when the words clearly contradict the star rating (a glowing text under 1 star, a furious one under 5), null when the review has no rating. issue: the main problem the review reports (label: product_defect, sizing_or_fit, shipping_or_delivery, customer_service, price_or_value, missing_feature, other, or none, with confidence; label is null when unsure). reports (needs reports=): does this review say that the thing you describe happened (p, 0 to 1). incentivized: does the reviewer say they got the product free, discounted or rewarded for the review (p), and did the text carry a disclosure such as 'in exchange for my honest review', Vine or 체험단 (disclosed). injection flags text that addresses an AI system and tries to direct it (flagged, p); it never drops or rewrites a row. These are signals to read, never a verdict on a review or a reviewer. A review that could not be judged carries labels: null. Reviews already labelled for anyone are free, and so is a cached page. data.labels reports what was judged and billed.
reportsNoRequired by label=reports, ignored otherwise. What to look for, in plain words, up to 300 characters, for example reports=the battery drains quickly or reports=배송이 늦음. Every review gains labels.reports.p, the probability that it says so, in any wording or language. Without it label=reports is skipped with the warning label_reports_needs_reports and is not billed.
judgmentsNoOptional, on (the default) or off. By default every row gains free SocialCrawl judgments (computed.labels, and computed.relevance on search endpoints), reported in data.labels (mode default) and data.relevance (origin default), each with a status (complete, partial or skipped) and pending: the rows still being judged when the page was sent, which carry null now and are filled on your next call or cached read. Default judgments never add credits, never change an existing field, and never drop or reorder a row. off returns the page exactly as before, with none of those keys. label=none does the same. (on | off)
dry_runNoOptional. When 1, return a cost preview for this labelled or relevance-filtered request without fetching the page or judging any row. data.estimate reports rows_expected, rows_cached, label_credits_min, label_credits_max and base_credits. 0 credits charged. (1)
label_evidenceNoOptional, only with label=. When 1, every labelled row also carries computed.labels_evidence.<preset> = { quote, sentence_index }: the sentence in the row that most clearly shows the label, copied verbatim. Absent or null when no single sentence shows it. (1)
fitNoOptional. When goal, keep the rows and fields needed for the goal you pass in goal= (plus any that are uncertain, and the first and last), and replace the rest with a stub. data.held_back lists the held ids and a recall id that re-reads the full page from cache at no extra charge. Without this param the page is unchanged. (goal)
goalNoRequired by fit=goal. What you are trying to do, in your own words, up to 300 characters.
fit_tokensNoOptional, only with fit=goal. Soft cap on how much of the page to keep, in tokens. Uncertain blocks and the first and last block are kept even if they exceed it.
sinceNoOnly rows published on or after this date: YYYY-MM-DD (midnight UTC) or an ISO 8601 timestamp. Rows older than it are left off each page. This list is not in date order, so the walk does not stop at the date: keep following `next_cursor`, and each page costs what a page costs even when every row on it is filtered out. A row with no date is kept. `published_after`, `start_date`, `from_date`, `publish_time` (`yesterday`, `this-week`, `this-month`, `last-3-months`, `last-6-months`) and `max_age_days` are accepted and applied as `since`.
untilNoOnly rows published on or before this date: YYYY-MM-DD (that whole UTC day is included) or an ISO 8601 timestamp. Newer rows are left off each page and the walk does not stop, so older pages follow. A row with no date is kept. `published_before`, `end_date` and `to_date` are accepted and applied as `until`.

Contact us
How do I get Google reviews with an API?
Send a GET request to /v1/google/business/extended-reviews for a place. SocialCrawl returns reviews aggregated from the Google reviews element, not only Google users but reputable third-party sources like TripAdvisor, Yelp, and Trustpilot, each tagged with its source domain.
Which review sources does it include?
Reviews come from Google itself plus reputable third-party sites (TripAdvisor, Yelp, Trustpilot, and others) that Google surfaces on the place. Every review is tagged with its source domain, so you can filter by platform or weight Google reviews differently from aggregator reviews.
Does each review include the full text and a translation?
Yes. Each review returns its full text plus an original-language translation, the star rating, reviewer stats, and any owner reply. That lets you read non-English reviews in one language while keeping the original for sentiment work or display alongside the translated copy.
Can I see the business owner's replies?
Yes. When a business has responded to a review, the owner reply is included on the review record alongside the reviewer's text and rating. This is useful for tracking how a brand handles complaints or for surfacing engaged listings in a directory.
How much does the Google Reviews API cost?
Each request costs 5 credits, powered by DataForSEO, because it aggregates reviews across Google and multiple third-party sources. New accounts get 100 free credits with no credit card required, enough for 20 review pulls before you pay a cent.
