Naver News Scraper

Scrapes news search results from Naver. Extracts article titles, snippets, sources, publication dates, images, and source URLs. Supports pagination, category filtering, optional redirect resolution, and Korean date parsing.

What this Actor collects

The Actor converts news and article results into clean JSON records that can be downloaded, queried through the Apify API, or sent to downstream workflows.

• Uses the input limits and filters below to control the crawl.
• Stores source-backed fields defined by the 48-field dataset schema.
• Omits optional fields when the source does not expose a value instead of writing nulls or fabricated placeholders.

Use cases

• News monitoring
• Publisher and topic research
• Article-feed enrichment

Input
