# Import Product Hunt reviews

Connect your product's Product Hunt page, import its reviews as testimonials and keep new ones coming in with auto-sync.

Bring the reviews your product has on Product Hunt into ReTestimonial. Each review becomes a text testimonial you can approve and show like any other. Product Hunt import is available on Business.

## Before you start

You need the address of your product's Product Page, the page on Product Hunt that collects its launches and reviews ([What are Product Pages?](https://help.producthunt.com/en/articles/6255061-what-are-product-pages)). Open it in your browser and copy the address, which looks like `https://www.producthunt.com/products/your-product`. You don't sign in to Product Hunt. The link to one of your launches works too: the product behind it is looked up when you connect.

1. **Open Review Platforms**

   In your project, open **Review Platforms** under **Collect** in the sidebar, then choose the **Product Hunt** tab.

2. **Connect your product**

   Click **Connect Product**. Paste the address into **Product Hunt Product URL**; a link to the product's reviews page works too. Under **Product Name**, type the name you want to see in ReTestimonial, then click **Connect Product**.

   The product appears as a card under **Connected Products**. You can connect each product once per project.

3. **Import reviews**

   On the product's card, click **Import**. In the **Import Product Hunt Reviews** dialog:

   - Use the **Reviews to Import** slider to choose how many reviews to bring in.
   - Pick a **Sort order** to decide which reviews come first: **Most Recent** (the default), **Most Helpful**, **Highest Rating** or **Lowest Rating**.
   - Tick **Auto-approve all imported reviews** if you want to skip the **Pending** step.

   Click the button at the bottom of the dialog; its label shows how many reviews you chose. An import can take a few minutes. When it finishes, a message says how many reviews were imported and how many were skipped.

## Where imported reviews go

Imported reviews arrive in **Pending**, where you approve the ones you want to show. If you ticked **Auto-approve all imported reviews**, they go straight to **Approved**. You can also find them under **All Imports** in the sidebar.

Each review comes in as a text testimonial with the reviewer's name and photo, their star rating when they gave one, the review text, an approximate review date and a link to the review on Product Hunt.

## Which reviews are imported

- The testimonial text is the positive part of the review. Under **All Imports**, each Product Hunt review also shows its **What's great**, **Needs improvement** and **vs Alternatives** parts, but only the positive text is used as the testimonial.
- Reviews without enough positive text to quote, such as a rating on its own or only criticism, are skipped.
- A review is never imported twice in the same project.
- An import reads as many reviews as you chose on the slider and skips the ones it can't use, so it can bring in fewer. Run **Import** again to continue with reviews you haven't imported yet; each run reaches further back.

Only one import or sync runs at a time for each product.

## Import new reviews automatically (auto-sync)

Click **Sync** on a product's card to import new reviews right away. When your plan limits syncs, the button shows how many you've used this month, across all the products in the project. A sync that fails doesn't count.

To import new reviews on a schedule, open the menu on the product's card and choose **Settings**. Turn on **Auto-sync reviews** and click **Save Settings**. The **Auto-sync frequency** is **Monthly**. The card then shows a badge with the frequency. Auto-sync runs once that much time has passed since the product's last import or sync. For what each setting does, see [Keep imported reviews up to date with auto-sync](/help/import/sync-reviews-automatically).

In the same dialog:

- **Auto-approve synced reviews** sends reviews from **Sync** and auto-sync straight to **Approved** instead of **Pending**. **Import** uses its own **Auto-approve all imported reviews** box.
- **Notify on new reviews**, with **Email notifications** and **In-app notifications**, tells you when an import, a sync or auto-sync brings in new reviews. Email notifications are on by default and go to the workspace owner.

**Sync** and auto-sync always start from the most recent reviews. **Sort order** applies only to **Import**.

If an automatic sync fails after its retries, or is skipped because the month's reviews are used up, the people who manage the project get a notification: **Product Hunt reviews couldn't be imported** after a failure, or **Product Hunt reviews not imported: monthly limit reached** when the month's reviews are used up. In notification settings, this kind of notification is called **Review sync needs attention**.

## Disconnect a product

Open the menu on the product's card, choose **Disconnect** and confirm with **Disconnect**. The reviews you imported stay in your project, and the reviews and syncs you used this month still count.

## Plan limits

These limits apply to each project. The **Monthly usage** bar on the **Product Hunt** tab shows how many reviews you've imported this month and how many remain.

|                    | Free  | Pro  | Premium  | Business  |
| ------------------ | ---- | ---- | ---- | ---- |
| Products           | 0 | 0 | 0 | 5 |
| Reviews per import | 0 | 0 | 0 | 100 |
| Reviews per month  | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1,000 |
| Syncs per month    | 0 | 0 | 0 | 4 |

> **Warning:** Each review counts once. Deleting imported reviews doesn't give back your monthly allowance, and a review you've already imported can't be imported again, even after you disconnect and reconnect the product.

> **Note:** Only teammates with import access can connect products, run imports and change sync settings. Everyone else sees this page read-only.
