Articles behind the pay wall

Closed

JakubKazK opened this issue

Hey, this is more of a question than an occurring problem.

There are some news feeds that offer both free and paid articles, and I wonder how the Actor tackles those.

If I have an account, do I need to provide it with login information, or does it circumvent the paywall?

Milan Knoll (milunnn)

Hey,

The actor only works with what it is provided/what is publicly accessible. So if an article is partially paywalled, it should return only the publicly accessible part, but that depends on each website. You could potentially use the Use Googlebot headers input option to try circumventing the paywall, but that's it.
