📰 Bing News Scraper

Scrape news articles from Bing News search results — titles, URLs, sources, publish dates, snippets, and thumbnails. Supports multiple keyword search, date sorting, and regional markets. No API key required.

✨ Features

  • Multi-Keyword Search: Search for news across multiple topics in a single run
  • RSS + HTML Scraping: Uses Bing's RSS feed for clean data, with HTML scraping fallback
  • Date Sorting: Sort results by relevance or most recent
  • Regional Markets: Target 10+ markets including US, UK, Germany, France, Japan, and more
  • Rich Data: Extracts title, URL, source, publish date, snippet, and thumbnail for each article

🔧 How It Works

  1. Configure your search keywords (comma-separated for multiple topics)
  2. Set the max results per keyword, sort order, and target market
  3. The Actor queries Bing News via RSS feed (primary) with HTML scraping fallback
  4. Results are pushed to the Apify dataset as structured JSON

⚡ Rate Limits

This Actor scrapes Bing News directly — no API key required. Built-in rate limiting ensures reliable operation:

  • 1.5s delay between pagination requests
  • Automatic retry on HTTP 429 (rate limit) responses
  • ~30 articles per keyword: Completes in ~5-10 seconds
  • Multiple keywords: Processed sequentially with delays

📝 Notes

  • Data is scraped from Bing News search results in real-time
  • RSS feed is used as the primary data source for cleaner, more structured output
  • If RSS returns no results, the Actor automatically falls back to HTML scraping
  • Article URLs link directly to the original source websites
  • Thumbnails are Bing-cached images and may expire after some time
  • For best results, use specific search terms rather than very broad keywords
