Scrapes Startpage News for any query. Extracts the full canonical news-vertical schema: title, source, snippet, dates, thumbnail, category, language, region, authors, anonymous-view URL, and more.

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 37-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

Provide input in JSON. Fields marked required must be supplied; source-specific alternatives and constraints are described in the field text.
