trustpilot

This a NodeJS API wrapper for accessing the Trustpilot APIs. You can learn all about the Trustpilot API at https://developers.trustpilot.com/.

Installation

This module is built using Typescript and NodeJS v20.x.

Install using npm install trustpilot

Usage

As of version 3, the project has been converted to Typescript. The trustpilot module is async/await based. It provides an axios instance with sane defaults.

Basic Usage

import{TrustpilotApi}from"trustpilot";asyncrun(){constclient=newTrustpilotApi({key: 'YOUR-API-KEY',secret: 'YOUR-SECRET',username: 'YOUR-TRUSTPILOT-B2B-USERNAME',password: 'YOUR-TRUSTPILOT-B2B-PASSWORD',baseUrl: 'https://api.trustpilot.com'});// For basic calls authentified by API key, use client.apiRequesttry{constresponse=awaitclient.apiRequest('/v1/resources/images');console.log(response.data);}catch(error){// handle the error});}

Usage with OAuth

For calls authentified by OAuth token, use the authenticate() promise, which resolves with an axiosInstance object with everything you need.

import{TrustpilotApi}from"trustpilot";asyncrun(){constclient=awaitnewTrustpilotApi({key: 'YOUR-API-KEY',secret: 'YOUR-SECRET',username: 'YOUR-TRUSTPILOT-B2B-USERNAME',password: 'YOUR-TRUSTPILOT-B2B-PASSWORD',baseUrl: 'https://api.trustpilot.com'}).authenticate();try{constresponse=awaitclient.get(`/v1/private/business-units/${YOUR_BUSINESS_UNIT_ID}/reviews`);console.log(response.data);}catch(error){// handle the error});}

Choose OAuth token grant type

For service-to-service communication use 'client_credentials' grant type and API application key, secret combination to obtain an OAuth token. (Default grant type: password)

import{TrustpilotApi}from"trustpilot";asyncrun(){constclient=awaitnewTrustpilotApi({key: 'YOUR-API-KEY',secret: 'YOUR-SECRET',grantType: 'client_credentials',baseUrl: 'https://api.trustpilot.com'}).authenticate();// Use client}

Override API Base URL

The Invitations API methods have a different base URL. To override it, simply pass the baseUrl.

import{TrustpilotApi}from"trustpilot";asyncrun(){constclient=awaitnewTrustpilotApi({key: 'YOUR-API-KEY',secret: 'YOUR-SECRET',username: 'YOUR-TRUSTPILOT-B2B-USERNAME',password: 'YOUR-TRUSTPILOT-B2B-PASSWORD',baseUrl: 'https://invitations-api.trustpilot.com'}).authenticate();// Use client}

Migration from v3 to v4

As of version 4, request-promise-native has been replaced by axios

This means all responses are now following this response schema so code that previously used the response body directly, will need to add a .data

constjson=awaitclient.apiRequest('...');

constjson=(awaitclient.apiRequest('...')).data;
