Output

JSON

  • message - Message indicating status or errors, e.g., 'No more results' when no data is found.
  • detail - Additional detail about the message or error.
  • * - The JSON structure of the scraped review data returned from the API.

Dependencies

  • An API key credential for the GeoScraper API is required to authenticate requests.

Troubleshooting

  • If the node returns a 404 error with 'No data found', it means there are no more reviews available for the given place data ID and pagination token.
  • If the node throws a 'You must provide a value for the selected ID type.' error, ensure the 'Place Data ID' is correctly provided for the review operation.
  • Network or authentication errors may occur if the GeoScraper API key is missing or invalid; verify credentials are correctly set up.
