## FAQ

### What does the Google restaurant reviews export task return?

The Google restaurant reviews export task returns each review's star rating, text, date, review link, photos and sub-ratings such as food, service and atmosphere, plus the reviewer's name and profile.

### How do I export reviews of a different restaurant or business?

The Google restaurant reviews export task takes any Google Maps place link, place ID (ChIJ...) or name with a city, such as "Katz's Delicatessen New York", in placeUrls; add several places in one run.

### Can I get the lowest-rated reviews first?

The Google restaurant reviews export task sorts by newest; switch sort to lowest, highest or relevant. Lowest first is a quick way to find complaints worth answering.

### Why do some reviews have no text?

The Google restaurant reviews export task saves star-only reviews too; their text is empty while rating, date and reviewer are filled. Filter them out if you only need written feedback for sentiment analysis.

### How do I monitor new reviews every week?

The Google restaurant reviews export task keeps newest first, so a weekly schedule with a lower maxReviewsPerPlace catches recent reviews. Use the review ID to skip ones you already have.

### How is the Google restaurant reviews export task billed?

The Google restaurant reviews export task is billed per review saved, plus a tiny start fee per run. maxReviewsPerPlace and maxItems (100 here) cap it; current rates are on the Actor's Pricing tab.

## 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/piotrv1001/google-maps-reviews-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`).
