Setting Business Data Trustpilot Reviews Tasks

‌‌
This endpoint provides reviews published on the Trustpilot platform for the local establishment specified in the domain field.

The domain parameter can be found on the Trustpilot website as a part of the URL pointing to the specific local establishment. For example, here is the URL of The Pearl Source on Trustpilot:

https://www.trustpilot.com/review/www.thepearlsource.com

The domain of this establishment is www.thepearlsource.com

Your account will be charged for every 20 reviews returned, e.g. if you specify "depth": 21, you will be charged as per 40 reviews.

Note: in order to receive Trustpilot reviews, the domain you specify must identify the existing local establishment on Trustpilot.

Instead of ‘login’ and ‘password’ use your credentials from https://app.dataforseo.com/api-dashboard

<?php
// You can download this file from here https://cdn.dataforseo.com/v3/examples/php/php_RestClient.zip
require('RestClient.php');
$api_url = 'https://api.dataforseo.com/';
// Instead of 'login' and 'password' use your credentials from https://app.dataforseo.com/api-dashboard
$client = new RestClient($api_url, null, 'login', 'password');

$post_array = array();
// example #1 - a simple way to set a task
$post_array[] = array(
    "domain": "www.thepearlsource.com"
);
// example #2 - a way to set a task with additional parameters
// high priority allows us to complete a task faster, but you will be charged more money.
// after a task is completed, we will send a GET request to the address you specify. Instead of $id and $tag, you will receive actual values that are relevant to this task.
$post_array[] = array(
   "domain" => "www.thepearlsource.com",
   "depth" => 40,
   "priority" => 2
);
// example #3 - an alternative way to set a task
// after a task is completed, we will send the results according to the address you set in the 'postback_url' field.
$post_array[] = array(
   "domain" => "www.thepearlsource.com",
   "postback_url" => "https://your-server.com/postbackscript"
);
// this example has a 2 elements, but in the case of large number of tasks - send up to 100 elements per POST request
if (count($post_array) > 0) {
   try {
      // POST /v3/business_data/trustpilot/reviews/task_post
      $result = $client->post('/v3/business_data/trustpilot/reviews/task_post', $post_array);
      print_r($result);
      // do something with post result
   } catch (RestClientException $e) {
      echo "n";
      print "HTTP code: {$e->getHttpCode()}n";
      print "Error code: {$e->getCode()}n";
      print "Message: {$e->getMessage()}n";
      print  $e->getTraceAsString();
      echo "n";
   }
}
$client = null;
?>

The above command returns JSON structured like this:

All POST data should be sent in the JSON format (UTF-8 encoding). Task setting is done using the POST method. When setting a task, you should send all task parameters in the task array of the generic POST array. You can send up to 30 API calls per minute, with each POST call containing no more than 100 tasks. If your POST call contains over 100 tasks, the tasks over this limit will return the 40006 error.

You can retrieve the results of completed tasks using the unique task identifier id. Alternatively, we can send them to you as soon as they are ready if you specify the postback_url or pingback_url when setting a task. Note that if your server doesn’t respond within 10 seconds, the connection will be aborted by timeout, and the task will be transferred to the ‘Tasks Ready’ list. The error code and message depend on your server’s configuration. See Help Center to learn more about using pingbacks and postbacks with DataForSEO APIs.
