## Parameters

| name | type | required | default | description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| contributor | not declared | yes | not declared | A Google Maps reviewer, given as their profile link (https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/<numeric ID>) or just the 10 to 32 digit ID. The reviewer links in `reviews` results lead to this page. `contributor_reviews` returns up to 200 reviews this person has written. |
| limit | integer (1–200) | no | 20 | The most rows to return in this call, an integer from 1 to 200. The default applies when you leave it out, and a call can return fewer rows. Larger values are accepted and capped at the maximum. |

## Response fields (items in `results`)

| field | meaning |
|---|---|
| id | The record's unique ID on the platform. Unique only within one platform; IDs can repeat across platforms. |
| text | Body text with HTML removed, returned in full and never cut short (on a few platforms the list results themselves carry only an excerpt; the platform's field notes say so). |
| rating | Rating. **The scale varies by platform**: rating_scale on the same row gives the maximum (usually 5; Booking, Douban, iQIYI and NAVER use 10). Convert with rating_scale before comparing across platforms, or the comparison can come out backwards. |
| rating_scale | Maximum of rating in the same row: 5 for five-star scales, 10 for ten-point scales. Present only when the row has a rating. |
| like_count | Likes. null means the platform or this capability does not disclose it; it is not 0. |
| posted_at | Publish time in ISO 8601, UTC (for example 2026-08-07T12:34:56+00:00). Non-standard strings from the platform are passed through as is, so parse defensively. null means the platform does not disclose it. |
| posted_ago | platform-native meaning |
| url | Link to the record on the platform. |
| image_urls | Array of image links in the platform's display order; absent when there are no images. |
| owner_response | The business's public reply to this review: text, author_name and posted_at; absent when there is no reply. |
| owner_response_ago | platform-native meaning |
| place_name | platform-native meaning |
| place_address | platform-native meaning |
| place_type | platform-native meaning |
| place_data_id | platform-native meaning |
| lat | platform-native meaning |
| lng | platform-native meaning |
| reviewer_name | platform-native meaning |
| reviewer_id | platform-native meaning |
| reviewer_review_count | platform-native meaning |
| is_local_guide | platform-native meaning |
| local_guide_level | platform-native meaning |
| local_guide_points | platform-native meaning |
| platform | Source platform identifier, the same as platform in the request (for example xiaohongshu, tiktok). |
