Getting reviews of newly associated place with Google Business

Question

We have a platform in which we are integrating Google Business API and before that we were just using Google Places API.

We kinda have similar scenario like the one below

I have followed the instruction of first answer by "Terry".

I have done following steps

• Used OAuth 2.0 for authentication and authorization
• Created a new, unverified location
• Found all of the possible locations that are a match to the unverified location
• Upon the user’s selection and approval, associated the unverified location to a specified place ID
• I am getting the reviews of approved/published business locations.

Here's the issue:

I want to get the reviews of that newly associated business location.

How can i achieve that?

Second question is, is it possible to associate a place Id with businesses location which is not returned by Google Business API Find Matches endpoint?

Answer 1

So finally this is what i get from GMB team.

"In the Google My Business API, the review operation is only valid if the specified location is verified, the only boolean field of the "LocationState object" in a location you should check for is "isVerified".
