## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).


# README

## Google Maps Reviews

Pull reviews from any Google Maps place — author, rating, text, dates, likes,
visit info, and attached photos. No login, no API key, no quota.

### What you get

A place header (name, rating, total review count, feature id, place id, address)
plus a list of reviews. Each review has: author name + id + profile URL + photo,
Local Guide status/level, reviewer's lifetime review & photo counts, rating (1–5),
review text, relative time ("2 minggu lalu") + exact post/edit dates, "helpful"
like count, and photos uploaded with the review. When the reviewer filled Google's
structured questions you also get `visit_time`, `queue_time`, and
`reservation_recommended`.

### Input

`input` accepts **any** of these — the actor figures out which:

| Kind | Example |
|---|---|
| Place URL | `https://www.google.com/maps/place/Candi+Jago/@-8.0,112.7,17z` |
| Share link | `https://maps.app.goo.gl/HMNsrV1dWv4ktBXb7` |
| Feature id (item_id from Search Places) | `0x2dd6256faaaaaaab:0xceeaf66957bc2c45` |
| Place id | `ChIJq6qqqm8l1i0RRSy8V2n26s4` |

```json
{
    "input": "https://maps.app.goo.gl/HMNsrV1dWv4ktBXb7",
    "sort": "newest",
    "max_reviews": 0,
    "language": "id",
    "country": "id"
}
````

- **`max_reviews`** — cap the number of reviews. **`0` = scrape every review**
  until the feed ends. (Google limits how deep the feed can be scrolled —
  empirically a few thousand reviews per place, even for places with far more.)
- **`sort`** — `relevant`, `newest`, `highest_rating`, `lowest_rating`.
- **`language` / `country`** — locale of the result text and ranking.

### Sample output

One record per run: the place header + a `reviews` array.

```json
{
    "name": "Candi Jago",
    "rating": 4.6,
    "review_count": 1103,
    "feature_id": "0x2dd6256faaaaaaab:0xceeaf66957bc2c45",
    "place_id": "ChIJq6qqqm8l1i0RRSy8V2n26s4",
    "address": "Jl. Wisnuwardhana, Ronggowuni, Tumpang, Kec. Tumpang, Kabupaten Malang, Jawa Timur 65156",
    "reviews_count": 200,
    "reviews": [
        {
            "review_id": "ChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSUNoajdfcnNBRRAB",
            "review_url": "https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=...",
            "author_name": "Azriel Hudansyah Putra",
            "author_id": "105766617628534823200",
            "author_profile_url": "https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/105766617628534823200/reviews?hl=id",
            "author_photo_url": "https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a-/...",
            "author_byline": "Local Guide · 154 ulasan",
            "reviewer_review_count": 154,
            "reviewer_photo_count": 2693,
            "is_local_guide": true,
            "local_guide_level": 7,
            "rating": 5,
            "text": "Candi Jago adalah Pendharmaan dari seorang raja Singhasari ...",
            "relative_time": "3 tahun lalu",
            "post_date": "2023-02-25T04:37:52Z",
            "edited_date": "2023-02-25T04:39:28Z",
            "like_count": 1,
            "photo_count": 40,
            "photos": ["https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/grass-cs/...", "..."],
            "visit_time": "Akhir pekan",
            "queue_time": "Tanpa mengantre",
            "reservation_recommended": "Tidak"
        }
    ]
}
```

`visit_time`, `queue_time`, `reservation_recommended` appear only when the
reviewer answered those questions.

### How to get the input

- **From your browser** — open the place on Google Maps and copy the URL, or use
  the **Share** button for a `maps.app.goo.gl` link.
- **From Search Places** — run **[Google Maps Search Places](https://apify.com/xtracto/gmaps-search-places)**
  and pass any result's `item_id` (the `0x...:0x...` feature id) straight in.
- **From Suggestion** — run **[Google Maps Suggestion](https://apify.com/xtracto/gmaps-suggestion)**
  and use its `item_id`.

### Use cases

- **Brand listening** — track every new review across all your locations.
- **Sentiment analysis** — feed `text` into an LLM for topic / sentiment scoring.
- **Competitor benchmarking** — compare volume, average rating, Local-Guide mix.
- **Reputation management** — sort `lowest_rating` to triage negative feedback.
- **Local SEO research** — mine real customer phrases and visit patterns.

### Pair with other actors

- **[Google Maps Place Detail](https://apify.com/xtracto/gmaps-detail-places)** — full place info (hours, category, phone, website).
- **[Google Maps Search Places](https://apify.com/xtracto/gmaps-search-places)** — discover places to scrape reviews for, in bulk (feeds `item_id` here).
- **[Google Maps Contributor Profile](https://apify.com/xtracto/gmaps-contributor-profile)** — drill into a reviewer via their `author_profile_url`.

## `sort` (type: `string`):

Review sort order: relevant, newest, highest\_rating, or lowest\_rating.

## `max_reviews` (type: `integer`):
