Choose your first workflow
| Goal | Start here |
|---|---|
| Track a company or topic | Prefilled NVIDIA example: US English, seven days, up to five articles |
| Collect beyond one keyword RSS page | Bounded seven-day collection |
| Integrate CSV/JSON into a script | Google News API walkthrough |
| Use the Actor through an AI assistant | Direct MCP setup |
| Migrate an existing Data Xplorer input | Use the documented envelope and compatible output below |
Open the small example, change the keyword if needed, inspect the limits, then click Start. It returns metadata and links, with optional text/images disabled. The September 27, 2026 owner check returned five non-error articles, including dates, publishers and resolved links. The preview is a dated sample, not a live feed or proof of full coverage.
First-run cost: Five delivered articles add $0.00375 at the Free-plan rate. Our sample used $0.000324 in platform resources, or about $0.00407 combined for that rate and usage. Actual cost varies. Platform resources are additional, including optional proxy/rendering costs. The example has a $0.15 Actor-event cap and 180-second timeout; this does not cap separate resources. See the Pricing tab for your rate.
Google News results may include the company's own publications and unrelated keyword matches. Source limits can omit mentions; publisher decoding, images and full text are source-dependent. Inspect coverage, warnings and SOURCE_DIAGNOSTICS.
Migrate a Data Xplorer workflow
Use the original input inside dataXplorerInput and add outputProfile: "data_xplorer" inside it. This returns image, millisecond publishedTimestamp, and metadata.keyword/sourceType/timeframe/scrapeTimestamp. Existing native output stays unchanged unless you opt in.
{"dataXplorerInput": {"keywords": ["artificial intelligence"],"timeframe": "7d","maxArticles": 20,"decodeUrls": true,"extractImages": false,"proxyConfiguration": {"useApifyProxy": false},"outputProfile": "data_xplorer","maxItems": 20}}
These explicit settings use direct requests and omit optional images to keep a first migration check small. The original envelope defaults still apply to settings you omit. Additive coverage, warnings and googleNewsUrl fields help identify partial records. Error rows retain their explicit error schema. Input/output field compatibility does not guarantee the same ranked articles, images or publisher availability as another service.
Collect more than one RSS page
For keyword searches requesting over 100 articles, the Actor splits a bounded date window into smaller Google News searches and deduplicates the results. Example:
{"queries": ["artificial intelligence"],"dateRange": "7d","maxResultsPerQuery": 220,"maxItems": 220,"maxFeedRequestsPerQuery": 16,"resolvePublisherUrls": false}
Limits can be set up to 10,000 articles, but this is a safety ceiling, not a delivery or archive-completeness promise. maxArticles=0 selects that safety ceiling. SOURCE_DIAGNOSTICS reports the requests, returned count, warnings and collectionLimited for each query. Source-dense single days may still hit Google's ceiling; an all-time search needs both dateFrom and dateTo to expand beyond the initial feed. Topic/section sources expose their current feed/page, without historical pagination.
The Actor deduplicates candidates before optional article enrichment and stops enrichment at maxItems. A remaining event budget too small for one result stops before source requests.
Try a small sample
- Click Try for free, then open Input and switch to JSON.
- Paste the example below and click Start. It uses a small result limit.
- Open the dataset to inspect results, then export JSON, CSV or Excel. Source restrictions can still cause partial or failed runs.

Verified cloud examples — September 26, 2026
These are developer-run functional checks, not customer usage or an uptime guarantee. Results can change as Google and publishers update.
| Workflow | Delivered records | Observed platform resources | Illustrative Bronze result fee |
|---|---|---|---|
| One keyword, 7 days, direct Google News links | 220 distinct articles | $0.000406 | $0.1320 |
| Technology → Mobile section, publisher links | 5 | $0.000534 | $0.0030 |
| Compatible output, images and descriptions requested | 5 | $0.000356 | $0.0030 |
| NASA keyword with optional article text | 3 with extracted text | $0.000592 | $0.0018 |
The 220-row check used three source requests; all 220 records had a title, publisher and publication date. In the compatible-output check, two publishers returned HTTP 403 and another had no image metadata: only two of five rows had images. Optional enrichment does not guarantee those fields. The article-text check used HTTP extraction; it did not exercise browser rendering. Resource figures are observed sample costs, not fixed prices; retries, proxy use, rendering and later exports may cost more.
Cost at a glance
Primary billing unit: News article. Rates below are per 1,000 primary events.
| Free plan | Starter / Bronze | Scale / Silver | Business / Gold and higher |
|---|---|---|---|
| $0.75 | $0.6 | $0.45 | $0.3 |
Platform compute, proxy, transfer and storage are additional. Other event types, where enabled, are listed in the Pricing tab. “Try for free” uses available account credits; it does not make usage unlimited or unmetered.
Worked cost example: The September 27 five-record brand-news test used approximately $0.000324 in platform resources. At the current Starter/Bronze event rate, five results add $0.0030, giving an illustrative total of about $0.0033 for the same resource usage. This calculation is not a customer invoice or a fixed quote: your plan, retries, settings and source responses change the bill. Storage, later exports and optional proxy use can add cost. The Pricing tab shows your applicable rate.
Coverage to know: Publisher text extraction is optional and source-dependent. A delivered news result may contain headline and link without complete article text.

First run from the Input form
The Input form now starts with the small configuration below. Review the target and Pricing tab before Start, then inspect the dataset and coverage diagnostics. Increase the limits after checking the sample. Saved tasks and explicitly supplied API inputs keep their own settings.
{"queries": ["NVIDIA"],"dateRange": "7d","maxArticles": 5,"maxItems": 5,"resolvePublisherUrls": true,"extractImages": false,"maxFeedRequestsPerQuery": 2,"region_language": "US:en","extractFullText": false}
Guides and full reference

Form prefills, schema defaults and empty API input can differ. Use explicit targets and limits; see the technical reference for source and default behavior.
Choose a news edition
region_language offers 84 named edition suggestions in the Input form, and custom values remain accepted. An edition combines geography and language; it does not translate publisher articles. For example, US:en, DE:de and JP:ja select distinct editions. Topic and keyword modes use the selected edition. Publisher content, images and decoded URLs remain subject to the source's availability and access controls.

Output at a glance
Illustrative field subset below; these are example values, not a captured customer review or a claim about source coverage. Native and compatibility output profiles can differ.
{"type": "article","query": "artificial intelligence","title": "Illustrative news headline","url": "https://example.com/article","source": "Example Publisher","fullText": null,"imageUrl": null,"coverage": "partial","warnings": ["Illustrative warning: publisher enrichment was unavailable."]}
RSS source limits apply. Publisher login, paywalls and unavailable pages are not bypassed. A usable RSS article is still a delivered billable article when requested text or image enrichment is unavailable; billing is not per complete article body.
Pricing
Pay per delivered event, with automatic discounts based on your Apify subscription plan. These are result fees in USD, not separate subscriptions sold by this Actor. All tiers have the same Actor features. Apify compute, storage, transfers and any proxy usage are charged additionally.
| Billable event (1,000 events) | Free | Starter | Scale | Business |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| News article | $0.75 | $0.6 | $0.45 | $0.3 |
Platinum and Diamond currently use the Business rate. The Pricing tab is the source of truth for the active schedule and your applicable plan.
- News article: One delivered article, including usable RSS articles when optional text or image enrichment is unavailable. Error rows have no result fee. Platform usage is additional.
Example on the Free plan: 10 / 1,000 / 10,000 events cost $0.0075 / $0.75 / $7.5 in result fees, plus platform usage.
There is no additional developer setup or monthly rental fee. A run with no billable results can still consume platform resources. Start small, cap results and review run costs before scheduling a larger workload. Requested counts are ceilings, not guaranteed deliveries.
Input reference
Fields below are grouped like the Input form. Optional fields need not be supplied. Compatibility input envelopes and transformations are explained in the technical reference.
Targets and collection
| Field | Type | Default | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
keyword | string | Not set | Single-query compatibility input. |
queries | array | Not set | One or more queries processed in one run. |
timeframe | string | Not set | Compatibility timeframe. |
region_language | string | "US:en" | Choose a regional edition and language, or enter a custom COUNTRY:language code. Explicit country/language inputs take precedence. Selection requests that edition; it does not translate articles. |
language | string | Not set | BCP-47 language code; overrides region_language language. |
country | string | Not set | Two-letter country code; overrides region_language country. |
since | string | Not set | ISO date/timestamp for scheduled incremental monitoring. |
resolvePublisherUrls | boolean | Not set | Resolve Google News article links to direct publisher URLs using Google's public page metadata and decode endpoint. |
extractFullText | boolean | false | Optional best-effort HTTP-only full-text extraction from publisher pages. |
includeImages | boolean | Not set | Optional best-effort og:image extraction from publisher pages. |
deduplicateArticles | boolean | true | Deduplicate across queries by resolved publisher URL. |
requestDelayMillis | integer | 0 | Optional delay before each HTTP attempt; zero keeps the fast concurrent path. |
keywords | array | Not set | Merged with keyword and queries, with duplicate queries removed. |
decodeUrls | boolean | Not set | Alias for resolvePublisherUrls; the explicit primary field takes precedence. |
extractImages | boolean | Not set | Alias for includeImages; the explicit primary field takes precedence. |
topics | array | Not set | WORLD, NATION, BUSINESS, TECHNOLOGY, ENTERTAINMENT, SPORTS, SCIENCE, HEALTH. Topic feeds do not support keyword search operators; since still applies. |
topicUrls | array | Not set | HTTPS Google News /topics/ |
extractDescriptions | boolean | false | Extract publisher meta descriptions. Unavailable descriptions remain null. |
renderMode | string | "off" | Fallback renders only when HTTP extraction has no body. Always renders publisher pages. Does not solve login, paywalls or access checks. Enable extractFullText to extract bodies. |
crawlerbrosInput | object | Not set | Paste the complete original input object here. Uses saved crawlerbros defaults, including dateRange=any and maxConcurrency=5. Put all settings, including optional native proxy/browser controls, inside this object. Use one envelope only. Unchanged top-level schema defaults are ignored; other outer settings are rejected. For compatible Data Xplorer output add "outputProfile":"data_xplorer" inside the object. Source coverage and safety limits are disclosed in diagnostics. |
dataXplorerInput | object | Not set | Paste the complete original input object here. Uses saved defaults: timeframe=1h, extractImages=true, maxArticles=100, decodeUrls=false, Apify Proxy enabled. Explicit nested values override defaults. Proxy service charges may apply; use nested proxyConfiguration.useApifyProxy=false to disable. Use one envelope only. Unchanged top-level schema defaults are ignored; other outer settings are rejected. For compatible Data Xplorer output add "outputProfile":"data_xplorer" inside the object. Source coverage and safety limits are disclosed in diagnostics. |
Filters and ordering
| Field | Type | Default | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
dateRange | string | Not set | Relative recency filter; ignored when dateFrom/dateTo are supplied. |
dateFrom | string | Not set | YYYY-MM-DD; overrides dateRange when set. |
dateTo | string | Not set | YYYY-MM-DD; use with dateFrom. |
siteFilter | string | Not set | Restrict results to a publisher domain such as reuters.com. |
excludeWords | array | Not set | Terms excluded from the Google News search query. |
Result limits and cost
| Field | Type | Default | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
maxArticles | integer | 20 | Maximum articles per source. 0 uses the 10,000-item safety cap, not unlimited history. Above 100, bounded keyword date ranges are split into smaller searches. Source coverage can still be limited; see SOURCE_DIAGNOSTICS. |
maxResultsPerQuery | integer | Not set | Maximum articles per query (1–10,000). Overrides maxArticles. Requests above 100 use bounded date partitions; the requested count is not a guarantee. |
maxItems | integer | 1000 | Maximum saved article rows across all queries in the run. |
maxRequestRetries | integer | 2 | Retries for transient HTTP 429, 5xx, timeout, and network failures. |
maxBrowserPages | integer | 5 | Per-run browser page cap. Rendering is sequential to bound memory; capped or blocked pages remain partial. |
Connection and advanced settings
| Field | Type | Default | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
maxConcurrency | integer | 12 | Maximum concurrent source/decode/enrichment requests. |
proxyConfiguration | object | Not set | Optional Apify Proxy or custom HTTP(S) proxy URLs. Routes RSS, Google publisher-link decoding, publisher HTTP and browser requests through one per-run proxy session. Initialization failure stops the run; no silent direct fallback. Proxy usage may incur provider charges. |
| outputProfile | string | native | Choose data_xplorer to return image, millisecond publishedTimestamp and metadata with sourceType/keyword/timeframe. Native remains the default. With an original-input envelope, put this setting inside that object. |
| maxFeedRequestsPerQuery | integer | 32 | Caps date-partition and topic fallback requests per query, excluding retries and article enrichment. Smaller values reduce work and may return fewer articles. |

API and automation
The API tab provides snippets for this Actor. For scheduled or larger collections, start a run asynchronously and poll its status instead of holding a synchronous request open. Keep your API token in an environment variable.
import os, time, requestsbase = "https://api.apify.com/v2"headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer " + os.environ["APIFY_TOKEN"]}actor_input = {'queries': ['artificial intelligence'], 'maxArticles': 5, 'maxItems': 5}response = requests.post(base + "/acts/fmbF7jYSahlHOp5Ye/runs",headers=headers, json=actor_input, timeout=30,)response.raise_for_status()run = response.json()["data"]for _ in range(720):if run["status"] not in ("READY", "RUNNING", "TIMING-OUT", "ABORTING"):breaktime.sleep(5)response = requests.get(base + "/actor-runs/" + run["id"], headers=headers, timeout=30)response.raise_for_status()run = response.json()["data"]else:raise TimeoutError("Polling ended; inspect the existing run before starting another.")if run["status"] != "SUCCEEDED":raise RuntimeError(run.get("statusMessage", run["status"]))response = requests.get(base + "/datasets/" + run["defaultDatasetId"] + "/items",headers=headers, params={"format": "json", "limit": 1000, "offset": 0}, timeout=30,)response.raise_for_status()rows = response.json()print(rows) # Paginate with offset for larger datasets; inspect per-row coverage.
Scheduled monitoring and integrations
- Save a working input as an Apify Task.
- Attach a Schedule in your timezone. Use overlapping date windows to reduce late-indexing gaps; deduplicate delivered URLs in your destination across runs. This Actor does not persist a cross-run seen-item registry.
- Add a successful-run webhook or connect your downstream workflow to the dataset export/API.
- Inspect missing/partial data before sending alerts or treating absence as removal.
Use the platform Integrations/API options to connect external workflows such as Make, n8n or a data warehouse. An external sentiment or summarization step is separate from this Actor and may have its own charges. The platform also supports Actor tools through Apify MCP; availability and client setup depend on your integration.
FAQ
Are full article bodies guaranteed?
No. Extraction depends on each publisher. Check bodyStatus, coverage and warnings before treating a body as complete.
Can I collect a topic without a keyword?
Yes. Use topics or topicUrls and set a small result cap. Source-specific limits still apply.
Will a headline-only result be charged?
Yes, if it is a usable delivered article. Optional full-text or image failure does not make the RSS article free.
Can I export without writing code?
Yes. Run from the Input form, open the dataset and use the export controls for JSON or CSV. Select your preferred output profile before running when migrating an integration.
Does a successful run guarantee every field?
No. Inspect coverage, warnings and source-specific status fields. Optional enrichment may be missing even when usable rows were delivered.
Troubleshooting
| Symptom | What to check |
|---|---|
| Empty dataset | Validate the target, source availability and filters; try the small quick-start input. |
| Fewer rows than requested | Check source limits, pagination and filtering. Increasing a cap cannot create unavailable source records. |
| Partial fields | Inspect coverage/warnings and the relevant source or enrichment status. |
| Access or throttling errors | Check the run log and documented proxy configuration; retry at a lower request volume. |
| Migration mismatch | Check the explicit input/output profile and technical field mapping below. |
| Unexpected bill | Separate result events from platform resources; inspect enrichment, result caps and the Pricing tab. |
Technical reference
Migration-friendly inputs
The Actor accepts both common input styles already used by established Google News Actors:
keyword,maxArticles,timeframe,region_language,proxyConfigurationqueries,maxResultsPerQuery,language,country,dateRange,dateFrom,dateTo,siteFilter,excludeWords,extractFullText,includeImages,maxConcurrency
Extensions include since as a publication-date filter for scheduled monitoring, maxItems as a global output cap, explicit deduplication, source coverage, warnings, and request/retry telemetry.
Core output
Each successful article preserves the familiar fields query, title, url, source, domain, publishedAt, snippet, fullText, imageUrl, author, language, and scrapedAt. The Actor adds googleNewsUrl, country, coverage, warnings, and retrievalMethod.
In native mode, publisher URL resolution is enabled and body/image extraction is off. Optional HTTP extraction and browser rendering are described below. Explicit compatibility profiles have their own defaults.
Source model
Google News RSS currently returns up to 100 results for a search request. Publisher URL resolution uses metadata Google serves on each public Google News article page plus the public Google News decode request used by the site. No residential proxy is required by design.
Input aliases and source failures
keywords merges with keyword and queries; timeframe accepts 7d, 30d and all. decodeUrls and extractImages alias resolvePublisherUrls and includeImages; explicit primary fields win. Topic and description controls are described below. Native output remains unchanged. Select outputProfile=data_xplorer for the compatible image, metadata and millisecond publishedTimestamp fields described above.
All-query source failures now finish with platform FAILED after saving diagnostics. HTTP 429 uses bounded backoff and honors Retry-After; cooldowns longer than 30 seconds stop this attempt instead of retrying prematurely. This does not guarantee recovery from source rate limits.
Topics and descriptions
topics accepts WORLD, NATION, BUSINESS, TECHNOLOGY, ENTERTAINMENT, SPORTS, SCIENCE, HEALTH. topicUrls accepts public HTTPS Google News /topics/
Browser-rendered publisher bodies
Set extractFullText=true with renderMode=fallback to render only when ordinary HTTP extraction has no body, or always to render each publisher. Default off preserves the current path. maxBrowserPages bounds browser work (default 5); one Chromium instance at a time bounds memory. Use at least 1024 MB for browser-enabled runs. Login, paywalls and access checks remain unsupported; no challenge solver is used. Missing/capped bodies stay partial.
Body quality diagnostics
bodyStatus=extracted_unverified means an article extraction candidate was returned;
it does not guarantee every source paragraph was captured. coverage=complete
indicates the requested extraction stages completed, not independently verified
full-text completeness. Known video landing pages and short access-verification
responses are not returned as article bodies. They keep feed metadata and available
image/author metadata, with null fullText, partial coverage and an explicit
bodyStatus/warning. Publisher fetch failures remain separate. No access challenge
or paywall is bypassed. This is a conservative guard, not a universal classifier.
The body-quality guard also recognizes short verification-success waiting screens and the tested consent-dialog signature; neither is returned as article text. This remains a targeted guard and cannot certify the completeness of arbitrary publisher pages.
Article tables and subscription restrictions
Full-text extraction now retains tables selected as article content, including financial release summary and statement rows, in the extractor's pipe-separated plain-text representation. This applies to HTTP and browser-rendered extraction. It does not promise spreadsheet-grade reconstruction of merged cells or all publisher layouts. Comments remain excluded.
An article's explicit JSON-LD isAccessibleForFree=false (including a restricted
hasPart) now returns fullText=null, coverage=partial, and
bodyStatus=publisher_paywall_or_subscription_required. Available metadata is
retained. This check runs before extraction and browser fallback, and again on
rendered HTML. It does not fetch subscription content or use an account. Generic
newsletter promotions and unrelated recommended articles do not trigger this
specific guard. Missing or malformed access metadata is not proof of free access;
other paywalls may remain undetected.
Optional proxy routing
Use proxyConfiguration to select a route. Enable Apify Proxy with
{"useApifyProxy": true} (optionally set apifyProxyGroups and
apifyProxyCountry), or provide {"proxyUrls": ["http://HOST:PORT"]}.
Authenticated custom HTTP/HTTPS proxy endpoints are supported. SOCKS endpoints
are rejected. Omitted or disabled configuration preserves the existing path.
The Apify SDK resolves one proxy URL with a stable googlenews session per run.
RSS requests, Google link metadata/decode POSTs, publisher HTTP requests, and
browser rendering all use that URL. HTTP proxy routing ignores environment proxy
bypass settings. Browser username/password are passed separately from its proxy
server address. Initialization failure stops before collection with
PROXY_CONFIGURATION_FAILED; later proxy failures do not retry directly.
OUTPUT.requestRouting and SOURCE_DIAGNOSTICS.requestRouting report proxy
or direct, without proxy URLs or credentials. Configured proxy transport errors
are reported using exception types, without raw transport exception messages.
Proxy provider usage may incur separate charges; it does not guarantee access to
publishers or change login/paywall/challenge restrictions.
Paste an existing competitor input
Wrap the original JSON object once in crawlerbrosInput or dataXplorerInput.
Use exactly one envelope. For example:
{"crawlerbrosInput": {"queries": ["artificial intelligence"]}}
{"dataXplorerInput": {"keywords": ["artificial intelligence"]}}
The second example preserves the saved Data Xplorer proxy default (enabled).
To run directly, include "proxyConfiguration": {"useApifyProxy": false} inside
that object. All proxy group/country/custom-URL settings are resolved from the
nested object, not from ignored top-level defaults.
| Explicit entry | Saved declared defaults used |
|---|---|
crawlerbrosInput | dateRange=any, maxResultsPerQuery=20, language=en, country=US, extractFullText=false, includeImages=false, maxConcurrency=5 |
dataXplorerInput | timeframe=1h, extractImages=true, maxArticles=100, region_language=US:en, decodeUrls=false, extractDescriptions=false, empty keyword/topic/URL lists, proxyConfiguration={"useApifyProxy":true} |
| No envelope | Existing native defaults, including dateRange=1d, images off, publisher resolution on, concurrency 12 |
Defaults are based on the declared public input schemas for crawlerbros and
data_xplorer. UI prefill values are not API defaults. Supply at least one
query or topic; an empty envelope is rejected instead of inventing a search.
Crawlerbros requires its queries array. This does not establish unspecified
competitor runtime defaults. Output mapping is an explicit, separate choice via outputProfile.
Explicit nested values take precedence; supported native aliases and runtime controls can also go inside the envelope. If both an explicit primary field and its alias are supplied, existing native primary-field precedence applies. Do not put business settings outside the envelope: unchanged top-level Schema defaults are ignored (including manually supplied values equal to those defaults), and other outer settings are rejected. This isolates each profile from platform injection of native defaults. Selected output fields, bounded source collection, HTTP/render/access restrictions and non-competitor runtime controls stay in effect. An enabled image stage does not guarantee a publisher image exists.
OUTPUT and SOURCE_DIAGNOSTICS report inputProfile plus a safe resolvedInput
summary of time window, image/decode flags, locale and limits. Proxy URLs,
credentials and raw envelope contents are excluded. Invalid envelope input is
rejected before collection without echoing submitted values.
Support
Open an issue from this Actor’s Issues tab with the run ID, expected result and a redacted input. Do not include tokens, cookies or private credentials. Include the output profile and affected field when reporting a migration mismatch.
Presentation update
The current listing adds workflow examples, grouped input documentation, output-field explanations and plan-based result discounts. Source-specific limitations above still apply. This is an independent tool and is not affiliated with the source platform.
