FAQ

Questions Currents owners ask.

  • 01

    How do I find the latest news without specific keywords?

    Use the get_latest_news capability. It provides a real-time stream of international news. You can optionally filter by language, country, or category to narrow down the stream.

  • 02

    Can I search for articles using complex logic like AND/OR?

    Yes! Use the search_news capability and provide your logic in the query parameter. This allows you to use boolean syntax to find exactly what you need across millions of articles.

  • 03

    How do I know which country codes or categories are supported?

    You can use the list_regions capability to see all supported 2-letter country codes and the list_categories capability to see the canonical list of news categories available for filtering.
