Using the Apify API

Call this actor programmatically:

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_API_TOKEN")

run = client.actor("cryptosignals/g2-reviews-scraper").call(run_input={
    "productUrls": ["https://www.g2.com/products/slack/reviews"],
    "maxReviews": 20,
    "sortBy": "most_recent",
})

for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(f"{item['stars']}★ — {item['title']}")
    print(f"  Likes: {item['whatDoYouLike'][:100]}...")

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_API_TOKEN' });

const run = await client.actor('cryptosignals/g2-reviews-scraper').call({
    productUrls: ['https://www.g2.com/products/slack/reviews'],
    maxReviews: 20,
    sortBy: 'most_recent',
});

const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(`Got ${items.length} reviews`);

Anti-bot protection and proxies

G2.com uses DataDome CAPTCHA protection that blocks datacenter IP addresses on sight. Residential proxies are mandatory for this actor to work reliably.

The actor uses Playwright with browser fingerprint rotation and automatic session management to handle DataDome challenges. Some requests may still fail — they are automatically retried with a fresh browser session.

For best results at scale, use residential proxies with clean IP reputation. ThorData offers 200M+ residential IPs across 195 countries with high success rates on DataDome-protected sites like G2.
