# Search reviews

> Searches the reviews of your connected Etsy shops: filter by a listing, star rating (`rating` at least, `rating_max` at most), when they were written (`from`, `to`), with or without text, with or without the buyer's photo; newest first by default (`created` for oldest first, `-rating` or `rating` by stars, newest first within one rating). Covers every connected shop unless `shop_id` narrows it; a shop or listing outside the workspace is 404. `summary` adds the count, average rating, rating distribution and photo count over every matching review (not just the page), each shop's data time and a `stale_shops` notice for shops not synced for 7 days; while a shop's reviews were never synced the statistics are null with a `reviews_not_synced` notice. Each review names its buyer and order: the `buyer` block and `order_id` need the `orders:read` scope and the Customer analytics workspace permission, and are null with `buyer_error` otherwise. Etsy's API has no seller replies, so there are none. The first summary of a very large shop (tens of thousands of reviews) can take up to 10 seconds, and may answer a retryable 503 when it takes longer. Paging stops after 10,000 results. Costs 1 API credit per page with results; an empty page and the summary are free.
