What is News Scraper with Full Article Text?

Searches the news for any query and returns recent articles, newest first, each with its headline, publisher, publish date, byline, the publisher's own link and the full article text as clean markdown. Articles that do not mention what you searched for are dropped, and articles we cannot read in full are skipped and not charged. Choose the last day, week or month. Built for brand monitoring, AI pipelines and market research.

• The whole article, not a snippet. Every result comes with its full text as clean markdown, ready for an LLM or a spreadsheet.
• Real publisher links. Each article links to the publisher, not to a news aggregator redirect.
• Only on-topic results. Articles that do not mention what you searched for are dropped.
• Recent by default. Newest first, from the last day, week or month.

How to use News Scraper with Full Article Text

1. Open News Scraper with Full Article Text in the Apify Console. A free Apify account is enough to try it.
2. Paste your queries, one per line, or upload a list.
3. Click Start. Each query is processed on its own, so one bad entry never loses the batch.
4. Download the results as JSON, CSV or Excel, or send them to your own tools with an integration.

Input

One field: queries. Search queries like "stripe funding" or "electric vehicle batteries".

A second field, maxArticlesPerQuery, caps how many articles come back per query, newest first (default 5, at most 100).

window keeps only articles from the last day, week or month (default week).

Every line is checked before the run starts. Each must be a search query like "stripe funding"; a run with any other line is refused with that line named, so a typo never costs you anything.

{
  "queries": [
    "stripe funding"
  ],
  "maxArticlesPerQuery": 5,
  "window": "week"
}

Output

A query with no recent articles we can read is skipped and costs nothing. The run log names every one that was skipped, so a short result is never a mystery.

{
  "query": "stripe",
  "title": "Meta's Muse unleashes instant shopping power with Stripe's Link integration",
  "url": "https://www.msn.com/en-us/technology/artificial-intelligence/meta-s-muse-unleashes-instant-shopping-power-with-stripe-s-link-integration/ar-AA2cYCZx",
  "source": "Small Business Trends",
  "publishedAt": "2026-09-25T05:11:00Z",
  "text": "Meta's Muse is adding Stripe's Link so shoppers can check out without leaving the chat…",
  "wordCount": 612,
