Extract guest reviews from Expedia hotel pages through Expedia's review GraphQL endpoints and build clean, analysis-ready datasets for research, monitoring, and reporting.

Collect review text, rating signals, traveler context, dates, and source metadata in a consistent output format designed for automation workflows.

Features

• API-based collection — Calls Expedia's persisted review GraphQL operations directly instead of relying on browser rendering or HTML parsing.
• Clean dataset output — Removes empty fields so records contain only meaningful values.
• Review metadata coverage — Captures rating, title, review text, dates, traveler profile, helpful-vote signals, management replies, sentiments, and guest-photo URLs when present.
• Duplicate protection — Avoids repeated items across repeated review loads.
• Production-ready defaults — Includes QA-friendly input defaults and proxy-ready configuration.

Tips For Best Results

Use Stable Hotel URLs

• Prefer direct hotel page URLs with hotel identifiers.
• Confirm the page has visible guest reviews before large runs.

Start Small, Then Scale

• Begin with results_wanted: 20 to validate output quality.
• Increase volume after confirming your target property works as expected.

Use Residential Proxy

• Residential proxy improves reliability for protected travel pages.
• Keep retry pressure low when running very high-volume workloads.

API Coverage Notes

• The actor combines Expedia's property review summary query with the paginated review overlay query.
• Optional fields vary by review, and the dataset omits empty values instead of filling them with nulls.

Integrations

• Google Sheets — Move structured reviews into live analysis sheets.
• Looker Studio / BI tools — Visualize rating trends and traveler segments.
• Airtable — Build searchable review intelligence workspaces.
• Webhooks — Trigger downstream processing as soon as each run completes.

Export Formats

• JSON — Best for APIs and engineering workflows.
• CSV — Best for spreadsheet and analyst workflows.
• Excel — Best for business-ready reporting.
• XML — Best for legacy integrations.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many reviews can I collect?

Collection volume depends on the property and available review depth. Increase max_pages and results_wanted for deeper collection.

Why is my dataset empty?

The page may be protected or not serving review payloads in that run context. Use residential proxy and verify the hotel URL.

Does every item include all fields?

No. The actor saves only non-empty values, so fields vary by the source review payload.

Can I run this on multiple hotels?

Yes. Schedule separate runs per URL or orchestrate multi-run workflows with your preferred automation tool.

Is duplicate handling included?

Yes. The actor applies duplicate protection across captured review records in each run.

Does this use a browser?

No. Review extraction is done with direct HTTP calls to Expedia's review GraphQL API.
