Reply to a review

Publish a reply under a Google review, in place of the one there; it is public on Google at once. Requires the brand owner on Starter or with an active API subscription: 403 brand_plan_required otherwise. A brand without Google connected answers 400 google_not_connected, an expired connection 400 google_connection_expired.

Path parameters

Query parameters

  • dry_run boolean optional

    Preview the call without executing it. Runs auth, scope, eligibility and body validation, then returns 200 with a dry_run object reporting the request-unit and credit cost plus a non-consuming quota snapshot. Nothing is debited, reserved, dispatched or mutated. An invalid body still returns 422.

    default: false

Header parameters

  • Idempotency-Key string required

    Required with an API key, else 400 idempotency_key_required: a new value per operation (a UUID works). A retry with the same key and body within 24 hours replays the first response instead of running again. Ignored with dry_run=true.
