Locations Details
Locations Details looks up the information of a specific place on TripAdvisor: its details (address, rating, category…), travelers’ reviews or its photos. It needs the place’s TripAdvisor identifier, which you can get with Search API.
When to use it
- Summarize what guests say about a hotel before recommending it.
- Complete a destination profile with the address, the rating and real photos.
- Keep an eye on the latest reviews of your own business.
- Compare the ratings of several restaurants in the same area.
Configuration
The component needs a TripAdvisor API credential with your TripAdvisor key. See Credentials.
| Field | What it does |
|---|---|
| Credential (required) | The TripAdvisor credential. |
| Input | The places you want to look up. Each item must include the location_id field with the place’s TripAdvisor identifier. A plain text, such as a chat message, is used as the location_id. |
| Api Selection (required) | Which information to request: Location details, Location reviews or location photos. |
| Default Currency | The currency prices are shown in. Default: EUR. |
| Default Language | The language of the results. Default: en (English). |
Output
The Data output returns the same items it received, each with a new field for the information requested: details, reviews or photos.
Connect it to an agent to summarize the reviews or write a profile of the place.
Example
A hotel wants a weekly summary of what its guests say:
- Prepare an item with the hotel’s TripAdvisor
location_id. - Connect it to Input on Locations Details and choose Location reviews in Api Selection.
- Pass the result to an agent that summarizes the strengths and the most frequent complaints.
- Schedule the flow every Monday from the Scheduler.
Good practices
- If you need several kinds of information about the same place, use one Locations Details for each.
