I am doing an application where I extract the google reviews using google places API.When I read the document related to it in "https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/places",I found out that I could get only 5 top reviews.Is there any option to get more reviews.
The documentation says that the Places API returns up to 20 results. It does not indicate that there is any way to change that limit. So, the short answer seems to be: You can't. Of course, you might be able to sort of fake it by doing queries for several locations, and then merging/de-duplicating the results.
The Google My Business API provides you with the ability to work with review data to perform the following operations: List all reviews. Get a specific review. Get reviews from multiple locations.
Places API is not free, however, once you set up your billing account, you will be entitled for a one time $300 free credit(usable for Google Cloud Platform products) and a monthly recurring $200 free credit(exclusive for Google Maps Platform products), after consuming the credits, you will receive an OVER_QUERY_LIMIT ...
The three most important, yet simple ways to get more Google reviews: Ask for a Google review. Show how to leave a review. Remind them to review you.
In order to have access to more than 5 reviews with the Google API you have to purchase Premium data Access from Google. That premium plan will grant you access to all sorts of additional data points you have to shell out a pretty penny.
If you are a Business owner wanting to retrieve all of your reviews, you can do so but first you have to get verified and could do this through the MyBusiness API more info here: https://developers.google.com/my-business/
There is a feature request for that: Issue 7630: Response to Include More Than 5 Reviews ─ I'd recommend you "star" it to receive updates.
