Methods

Business Data API supports both Live and Standard methods, depending on the data source and endpoint.

Live method — Returns instant results in a single POST request. No separate GET required. Best for real-time lookups of specific businesses.

Standard method — Asynchronous: POST to create a task, GET to retrieve results. More affordable for bulk data collection.

Task Completion (Standard Method)

When using the Standard method:

POST your task(s) to the appropriate endpoint
Either specify pingback_url or postback_url to receive automatic notifications/results
Or poll the 'Tasks Ready' endpoint to get IDs of completed tasks
Retrieve results using the 'Task GET' endpoint

Rate Limits

Up to 2,000 API calls per minute

Notes

All data returned is publicly available — no private review access.
Results reflect the platform's current public-facing data at the time of retrieval.
The check_url field (where available) lets you verify results directly in a browser.
Business Listings endpoints use Live method and return instant results.
Google, Trustpilot, and Tripadvisor review endpoints use Standard method — plan for processing time in your pipeline.
Use postback_url for high-volume review pulls to avoid polling overhead.
