## Changelog

### 2026-09-27

*Fixes*

- Scheduled review monitors now finish successfully with no new reviews when older valid reviews are observed, while empty or inaccessible sources still fail.
- Duplicate URL and hotel-ID targets are fetched once per property; review IDs are deduplicated within each hotel.
- Multi-hotel runs report property-specific extraction failures instead of silently succeeding with partial data.

### 2026-09-08

*Reliability*

- Added bounded residential fallback when fresh default datacenter sessions all receive empty Agoda review payloads.

### 2026-08-04

*Reliability*

- Added automatic proxy-session rotation when an Agoda edge returns an empty review payload, preventing intermittent valid hotel runs from failing without results.

### 2026-08-01

*Reliability*

- Restored default cloud runs by routing Agoda requests through Apify's datacenter proxy instead of blocked direct cloud egress.
- Fixed proxy session identifiers so custom datacenter and residential proxy configurations work correctly.

### 2026-07-24

*Features*

- Initial release for extracting anonymous Agoda hotel guest reviews from hotel URLs or numeric hotel IDs.
- Normalized ratings, review text, positives and negatives, stay context, traveler details, management responses, and guest media.
- Added per-hotel limits, a review-date cutoff, locale selection, partner-provider reviews, and optional proxy routing.
