maxItems is the combined limit, not a separate limit for each source. Results are merged, de-duplicated, sorted, and then limited.

If no start date is provided, the search covers up to the latest 90 days. A custom date range can cover up to 366 days. A narrow query can return fewer records than requested when fewer matching articles exist.

Tips

• Leave keywords and topics empty for a broad latest-news feed.
• Use several keywords with Any keyword for monitoring.
• Use All keywords for a narrow search.
• Add ambiguous words to excludeKeywords to reduce noise.
• Use one source at a time when you need publisher-specific exports.
