Bazaarvoice

Bazaarvoice operates a retail and brand user-generated-content network that collects, moderates, and syndicates ratings, reviews, questions and answers, and product-sampling content across thousands of brand and retailer sites. Its developer platform exposes a family of APIs - the flagship Conversations API for retrieving and submitting UGC, the V2.0 Content Search API for searching reviews/questions/answers/contributors and product catalog lookahead, plus the Transactions, Response, Social Commerce, and Authentic Discovery APIs, and structured-data (JSON-LD/Microdata) endpoints for SEO. APIs authenticate with a Bazaarvoice Portal-managed passkey (Bv-Passkey header) or, for the Transactions and Response APIs, 2-legged OAuth2 client credentials. Official iOS, Android, SEO, Magento, and Salesforce Commerce SDKs are published on GitHub.

Bazaarvoice publishes 6 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Answers API, Clients API, Contributor API, and 3 more. Tagged areas include Company, Reviews, Ratings, User Generated Content, and Retail.

Bazaarvoice’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, pricing, authentication, and 21 more developer resources.
