Parameters

Query parameters

Useful optional inputs

sort — Choose the documented source ordering before paging through results.
Ordering keeps the normal endpoint price and does not guarantee exhaustive results.
limit — Bound the returned rows to what your task needs.
A smaller limit does not necessarily reduce source calls or price; inspect the quote.
dry_run — Read a free estimate before fetching sources or scheduling paid work.
Zero credits; cache status and availability are snapshots rather than guarantees.

Name	Required	Description	Example
`asin`	yes	ASIN, or an Amazon product URL	`B0CHX3QBCH`
`location`	no	Location name	`United Kingdom`
`language`	no	Language code	`en`
`sort`	no	helpful or recent Accepted values: helpful, recent. Case, spaces, hyphens and underscores are interchangeable.	`recent`
`limit`	no	Requested maximum reviews (1 to 100). Availability may be limited to the product page's top reviews; this does not guarantee the requested quantity.	`20`
`dry_run`	no	Read a zero-credit estimate without fetching sources, running AI, or reserving credits. Cache status is a snapshot, not a guarantee at execution. Accepted values: 1, 0, true, false. Case, spaces, hyphens and underscores are interchangeable.	`1`
`judgments`	no	Add bounded AI labels to eligible returned records (default on). off preserves the original data shape. Unclassified records remain present; labels depend on evidence, time, capacity and the existing request budget. No label surcharge. Accepted values: on, off. Case, spaces, hyphens and underscores are interchangeable.	`on`
`label`	no	Set none to disable labels; default enables the endpoint’s label set. Equivalent to judgments=off. Accepted values: default, none. Case, spaces, hyphens and underscores are interchangeable.	`none`
`label_evidence`	no	Include exact supporting sentences and zero-based sentence indexes when a label has validated evidence. No extra charge or change to decisions. Accepted values: 1, 0, true, false. Case, spaces, hyphens and underscores are interchangeable.	`1`
`exclude`	no	Optionally remove confidently labelled engagement bait. Uncertain and unclassified records stay; removed IDs and an owner-bound recall reference are returned. Accepted values: engagement_bait. Case, spaces, hyphens and underscores are interchangeable.	`engagement_bait`
`fit`	no	Use goal to replace confidently irrelevant records with recall stubs. Keeps first, last, relevant and uncertain records; preserves order. Full evidence is stored for 24 hours when available. Accepted values: goal. Case, spaces, hyphens and underscores are interchangeable.	`goal`
`goal`	no	Required with fit=goal: describe the task in at most 600 characters. Supplied text is task context, never permission to act on posts.	`Find concrete product complaints`
`tokens`	no	Optional soft response target for fit=goal, 256–32000. Safety and evidence retention take priority, so the returned result may exceed it.	`4000`

Response

Response fields and example

This example is illustrative, not a captured live response. Variable-cost operations may settle a charge different from the list price below. A successful response puts the platform payload in data and reports the exact credits used, remaining balance, request id and cache status beside it.

200 · application/json

{
  "success": true,
  "platform": "amazon",
  "endpoint": "/v1/amazon/reviews",
  "data": {
    "items": [
      {
        "id": "example_review",
        "title": "A useful lamp",
        "text": "An illustrative review.",
        "rating": {
          "value": 4,

The example is illustrative and shows a documented subset of data. The fields below are optional across supported sources; nullable fields can also be absent. Preserve unknown values and accept additional fields.

Schema basis: reviewed response shaper. See schema coverage and validation limits.

Download the data JSON Schema. Validate response.data, not the whole envelope. A valid shape does not establish that every field or source record was returned.

Field inside data	Type	Meaning
`items`	`array`	Records in this response page.
`items[].id`	`string \| null`	Source identifier. Preserve its exact string value; do not convert large IDs to numbers.
`items[].title`	`string \| null`	Review title.
`items[].text`	`string \| null`	Review text.
`items[].rating`	`object \| null`	Nested response fields; optional unless explicitly documented.
`items[].rating.value`	`number \| null`	Source star-rating value.
`items[].rating.votes`	`number \| null`	Ratings reported by the source; null or absent is unknown, not zero.
`items[].rating.max`	`number \| null`	Maximum of the rating scale, normally 5.
`items[].posted_at`	`string \| null`	Source date text; do not assume an ISO timestamp.
`items[].verified`	`boolean \| null`	Verified-purchase flag.
`items[].helpful_votes`	`number \| null`	Helpful votes reported by the source; null or absent is unknown, not zero.
`items[].reviewer`	`object`	Nested response fields; optional unless explicitly documented.
`items[].reviewer.name`	`string \| null`	Reviewer display name.
`items[].reviewer.location`	`string \| null`	Source location text.
`items[].reviewer.url`	`string \| null`	Original source URL when supplied.
`items[].variant`	`string \| null`	Readable product-variant description.
`count`	`number \| null`	Returned row count when supplied; not the full source total.
`cursor`	`string \| null`	Opaque next-page token. A missing token does not prove full history was retrieved.
`has_more`	`boolean \| null`	Source continuation indicator; null means unknown.
`_warnings`	`array`	Collection limitations or component warnings. Read before interpreting coverage.
`marketplace`	`object`	Nested response fields; optional unless explicitly documented.
`marketplace.country`	`string \| null`	Resolved marketplace country code.
`marketplace.domain`	`string \| null`	Resolved Amazon marketplace domain.

Review availability varies. A response may contain only the top reviews shown on the product page. limit is a requested maximum, not a promise of 100 reviews or access to the full review history. Follow a returned cursor when available; no cursor does not prove all product reviews were retrieved.

Failures use the typed error envelope. A confirmed uncharged or refunded failure reports zero; a pending reconciliation can report an unknown charge. Read credits_used and error.details.billing_status, and keep request_id for recovery. Response contract · Error reference
