What

Pushes every available news category/topic for a market (name and id) to the dataset. Use a topic's id as the categoryId input for msn-news-search-scraper to get a category-filtered feed.

Why

MSN's category ids aren't documented anywhere public — this is the reference list other MSN News Actors in this account need as input.

Input

Field	Type	Required	Description
`market`	string (select)	Yes	MSN locale/market code, e.g. `en-us`, `en-gb`, `id-id`, `de-de`, `ja-jp`.

Output

One dataset row per topic:

{
    "id": "Y_46b78bbb-31c4-4fc5-8a4a-858072348d06",
    "name": "Top Stories",
    "canonicalName": "topstories",
    "isTopStory": true,
    "locale": "en-us",
    "imageUrl": "https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/...",
    "market": "en-us"
}

Pricing

Pay-per-event: topic — one charge per topic pushed.

Known limitations

The exact set of topics (around 16) and their ids can vary slightly by market.
This is an unofficial, reverse-engineered integration, not affiliated with or endorsed by Microsoft Corporation. Behavior may change if MSN changes its API.
