āFAQ
How does Restaurant Review Aggregator work?
First, it identifies places from Google Maps according to your input. The scraper takes places found Google Maps as the source of truth: therefore, each extracted review will refer to a place found on Google Maps, at the very least. Then, the Aggregator takes the places found on Google Maps as the new input and scrapes their reviews on other review sites.
How does the Aggregator extract restaurant reviews from Facebook?
Scraping restaurant reviews from Facebook in particular has a special approach:
- Once the Aggregator finds each place on Google Maps, it then searches for their respective Facebook Pages using Google Search.
- The Aggregator scrapes the Facebook URLs it found to get the necessary information from each page, such as the place address.
- The addresses from Google Maps and the Facebook Pages are then geocoded (using their coordinates on Google Maps) and compared.
- The places with the matching addresses are eventually scraped for reviews.
Is it legal to scrape restaurant reviews?
OurĀ scrapers are ethical andĀ do not extract any private user data. They only extract what the user has chosen to share publicly. However, you should be aware that your results could contain personal data such as names. You should not scrape personal data unless you have a legitimate reason to do so.
If you're unsure whether your reason is legitimate, consult your lawyers. You can also read our blog post on theĀ legality of web scrapingĀ andĀ ethical scraping.
Can I use this Review Aggregator as a Restaurant Review API?
Yes, you can use the Apify API to access data scraped by Restaurant Review Aggregator programmatically. The API allows you to manage, schedule, and run Apify Actors, access datasets, monitor performance, get results, create and update Actor versions, and more.
To access the API using Node.js or Python, you can use the apify-client
in the NPM package or PyPI package. There are also API endpoints available for extracting data without a client. For detailed information and code examples, see the API tab or refer to the Apify API documentation.
