# Monitor New Google Reviews Since a Date

**Use case:** 

Set reviewsStartDate to a cutoff and this task returns only reviews posted on or after it, newest first (here everything since 2026-06-01). The date is static, so update it each run (or automate it) to pull just the newer reviews. Each review returns review_text, author_rating, review_datetime, is_local_guide and more. Ideal for periodic review monitoring.

## Input

```json
{
  "Urls": [

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [Google Maps Reviews Scraper - Text, Ratings & Exact Dates](https://apify.com/delicious_zebu/google-maps-store-review-scraper.md) with a specific input configuration. Visit the [Actor detail page](https://apify.com/delicious_zebu/google-maps-store-review-scraper.md) to learn more, explore other use cases, and run it yourself.


## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/delicious_zebu/google-maps-store-review-scraper.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
