Is there a way to get the link of a review using the GMB APIs?

The closest to what I need is this:

Where the first ID (113400145807499011881) is the ID of the user who left the review, and the second ID (ChIJSRSm38NhLxMRBgg2EGMZqKc) is the place ID.

However, the review object returned by the API does not seem to contain enough information to obtain the reviewer user ID.

Thank you, Guido

I was searching for a way to get the url to the review overview for a specific location via the API too. After checking the links, IDs ect. in the API Responses and lots of documentations an tuturials i found NO way to get the link over tha API.

BUT a workarround with a few manual steps can help to find the link (I know that is not a final answer to the question, but maybe it is still helpfull)

  • go to google search, and search for you Location/ Company that contains the reviews
  • on the right side you should see a pannel that shows the current stars for your location and a link "xxxx Google-Rezensionen"
  • klick on this link and copy the url in the browser (optional remove parameters like "&client" ect.

Check this youtube-video of the Step by Step Tuturial to see a tuturial how you can do this.

    Thanks for your reply, but the *newReviewUrl* field is the *link to the page on Google Search where a customer can leave a review for the location* which is different from what I needed (the link to a specific review). – coccoinomane Mar 05 '20 at 14:58
