POST /api/freelancer/users/reviews

Price: 10 credits

List the reviews a Freelancer.com user received, as a freelancer or as an employer. Every review carries the star rating, free-text feedback, the per-category breakdown (quality, communication, expertise, professionalism, hire-again — or clarity, payment promptness and work-again for employer reviews), on-time and on-budget flags, the bid and actually paid amount with currency, the project or contest it belongs to, and the reviewer's profile.

How to use it

List reviews received by a Freelancer.com user. Pass user (username or numeric id), count, and role — freelancer for reviews of their delivered work, employer for reviews of them as a client. Optionally filter review_types to project or contest. Each item has id, text, rating, category_ratings, on_time, on_budget, bid_amount, paid_amount and price_usd with currency, context_name/context_url of the project or contest, from_user (the reviewer, with country and profile URL) and submitted_at unix seconds. paid_amount is what the client actually paid, which can differ from the winning bid.

Errors

• 422 — The request body did not validate Check the fields against this schema. A URN with the wrong prefix is the most common cause.
• 408 — The request ran past its time limit Raise `timeout` in the request body, up to the maximum this endpoint documents. Lowering `count` or turning off the `with_*` flags also helps, because less work finishes sooner.
• 412 — User not found Retrying will not help: either the entity does not exist, or the input points at a different one.
• 429 — Too many requests: a rate limit or a usage window is exhausted When the response carries an X-Retry-After header, wait that many seconds and retry: the same number is in the body as `detail.retry_after`, and the limit clears once that window passes. The message in the body names the limit that was hit.
• 500 — Something broke on our side Retrying will not help. If it keeps happening, send us the X-Request-ID from the response headers.
• 529 — Rate limit reached, or the endpoint is overloaded Wait at least 30 seconds, then retry.

Response headers

• X-Error — Error message text (present only on error)
• X-Request-ID — Unique request identifier
• X-Execution-Time — Execution time in seconds
• X-Result-Count — How many records the body carries. 0 means an empty result, which is a normal answer and not by itself an error. A non-zero count can come back together with X-Error when the failure happened partway through — read this header and X-Error independently.
• X-Total-Available-Results — How many records exist for this query, when the endpoint can say. On a `dry_run` request this is the answer and the body is empty. It saturates: the endpoint's documented maximum means 'at least that many', any smaller number is exact.
• X-Warning — Present when the request body carried keys this endpoint does not document. They were ignored, so any filter you meant to apply through them did not apply. Check the spelling against this schema and retry.
• X-Retry-After — Seconds to wait before retrying. Present only on 429.
