Manage Google Business Profile locations and reviews via the Business Profile API

Steps

1. Enable the My Business Business Information API and the My Business Reviews API in Google Cloud Console and create OAuth 2.0 credentials with the appropriate business management scope
2. Authenticate with OAuth 2.0 using a user account that has Owner or Manager access to the Business Profile locations you intend to manage
3. Use the accounts.locations.list method to retrieve location resource names; each location is identified by a resource name in the format accounts/{account_id}/locations/{location_id}
4. To respond to reviews, use the accounts.locations.reviews.updateReply method with a PUT request, providing the review resource name and the reply text in the request body
5. To update location attributes (hours, address, categories), use the accounts.locations.patch method with a fieldMask query parameter specifying only the fields to update
