## Setting Business Data Tripadvisor Reviews Tasks

  
This endpoint provides results from the “Reviews” element on the [Tripadvisor](https://www.tripadvisor.com/) platform. The results are specific to the URL path or keyword you indicate, and and the selected location (see [the List of Locations](https://docs.dataforseo.com/v3/business_data/tripadvisor/locations.md)).

**Note** that we recommend setting tasks with the `url_path` parameter for the highest accuracy.

The `url_path` parameter can be found on the Tripadvisor website as a part of the URL pointing to a specific business entity. For example, here is the URL of Margaritaville Resort Times Square on Tripadvisor:

`https://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g60763-d23462501-Reviews-Margaritaville_Times_Square-New_York_City_New_York.html`

The `url_path` for this entity is `Hotel_Review-g60763-d23462501-Reviews-Margaritaville_Times_Square-New_York_City_New_York.html`

**Note:** your account will be charged for every 10 reviews returned in the `items` array, e.g. if you specify `"depth": 11`, you will be charged as per 20 reviews.

Pricing

  Your account will be charged for setting a task and the number of reviews you will get in the `items` array. The cost can be calculated on the [Pricing](https://dataforseo.com/pricing/business-data/business-data-api-tripadvisor-pricing "Pricing") page.

 

 All POST data should be sent in the [JSON](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON) format (UTF-8 encoding). Task setting is done using the POST method. When setting a task, you should send all task parameters in the task array of the generic POST array. You can send up to 110 API calls per minute, with each POST call containing no more than 100 tasks. If your POST call contains over 100 tasks, the tasks over this limit will return the `40006` error.

You can retrieve the results of completed tasks using the unique task identifier `id`. Alternatively, we can send them to you as soon as they are ready if you specify the `postback_url` or `pingback_url` when setting a task. Note that if your server doesn’t respond within 10 seconds, the connection will be aborted by timeout, and the task will be transferred to the [‘Tasks Ready’](https://docs.dataforseo.com/v3/business_data/tripadvisor/reviews/tasks_ready.md) list. The error code and message depend on your server’s configuration. See [Help Center](https://dataforseo.com/help-center/pingbacks-postbacks-with-dataforseo-api) to learn more about using pingbacks and postbacks with DataForSEO APIs.
