Best practices

We see a lot of use cases for our Review Scraper API, and thought we'd share some best practices that we've picked up from these applications.

1. Using the diff parameter

Many use cases involve continuously checking a given review profile for new reviews, and some of our users use the from_date parameter to accomplish this. Learn about our diff parameter to use our advanced algorithms for fetching the latest difference in reviews from a previous job.

2. Using a callback URL

While some customers prefer to poll our web servers to check the status of a job after adding it, a less memory intensive option is to supply a callback URL when you add a job, which we automatically POST the same response to upon completion of the job. Read more about this in our callback documentation.

Refer to our API documentation for more information about our full functionality.
