Google Maps Reviews Scraper

Google Maps

Operated by Sourcelane✓ verified

A Google Maps reviews scraping connector that extracts full review data for businesses by accepting place URLs, Place IDs, or search queries and crawling Google Maps without requiring an API key or a browser. Produces one record per review containing a review identifier and source URL, numeric rating, full review text and language, relative and exact timestamps, attached photos, owner reply text and reply timestamp, reviewer metadata (display name, profile link, avatar, user identifier, reviewer review count, local guide flag), and place-level metadata (place identifiers, name, address, category, aggregate rating, total review count, place link). Implements newest-first pagination and a resumeable pagination cursor for deep scraping across tens of thousands of reviews; supports searching niches and fetching reviews for top search results.

Call it via Sourcelane

curl -X POST https://api.usesourcelane.com/v1/call \

Request params

Field	Type	Required	Description
`placeUrls`	array	optional	Places to fetch reviews for. Accepts full Google Maps place URLs, maps.app.goo.gl short links, ?cid= links, Google Place IDs (ChIJ…), or hex IDs (0x…:0x…).
`searchQueries`	array	optional	Alternatively search Google Maps and fetch reviews for the top results — e.g. "dentists in Austin TX". Use Max places per query to control how many places are taken from each search.
`maxPlacesPerQuery`	integer	optional	How many places to take from each search query (only used with Search queries). Capped at 100 per call.
`maxReviewsPerPlace`	integer	optional	Reviews to fetch per place, newest first. Set 0 for all reviews (large places can have tens of thousands — the run stops safely before the timeout and writes a resume cursor).
