FAQ

Questions NewsAPI owners ask.

  • 01

    Can I search for news articles from a specific date range?

    Yes! Use the search_everything capability and provide the from and to parameters in ISO 8601 format (e.g., 2023-12-01) to restrict your search to a specific timeframe.

  • 02

    How do I find the top business headlines in a specific country like the UK?

    You can use the get_top_headlines capability. Set the country parameter to 'gb' and the category parameter to 'business' to get the latest relevant news.

  • 03

    Is it possible to see which news sources are available for a specific language?

    Absolutely. Use the list_sources capability and specify the language parameter (e.g., 'en', 'pt', 'fr') to retrieve a list of all supported publishers for that language.
