```

## Example Response

```json theme={null}
[
  {
    "count": 342,
    "milestone": "Acme Dental - Downtown",
    "businessId": 78901,
    "reviewSites": [
      { "sourceAlias": "Google", "count": 248 },
      { "sourceAlias": "Yelp", "count": 39 },
      { "sourceAlias": "Birdeye", "count": 55 }
    ]
  }
]
```

## Response Fields

Each location contains `milestone` for the location name, `businessId`, total `count`, and `reviewSites` entries with `sourceAlias` and `count`.

## Notes

* `milestone` contains the location name, not a date or reporting period.
* `count` is the location total across the returned sources; do not add it to the individual `reviewSites` counts.
* Use `businessNumbers` to restrict the report to location IDs returned by [`get_child_locations`](/mcp/tools/business/get-child-locations).
