##### 2026-09-30

*Fixes*

- A comma inside a query no longer splits it in two. Queries are separated by line breaks only.

##### 2026-09-28

*Changes*

- `queries` can also be sent as `query`, `q`, `search`, `searchTerms`, `terms`, `term` or `keyword`, or as one text with the queries separated by commas or line breaks.

##### 2026-09-27

*Fixes*

- Links lead to the publisher's article again. Google had started to rate-limit the link lookups; after the first refusal the lookups now continue through Apify Proxy.
- Summaries no longer contain leftover ` ` entities.

*Changes*

- The watch field is now called `watchName`. Runs that still send the old name `watchKey` keep working.

##### 2026-09-24

*Changes*

- Lower price per article on every plan.

##### 2026-09-06

*Fixes*

- New-only mode keeps its snapshots in storage of its own, which fixes a permission error that could stop the run.

##### 2026-09-03

*Features*

- First version: Google News search, topic sections and front pages for any language and country edition, extra RSS and Atom feeds, publisher links decoded from Google links, date ranges searched day by day past the 100-item limit, and a new-only mode for scheduled runs.
