Match

matchLogic

Optional

"any": an article matching any company or any keyword. "company_and_keyword": one of your companies must be in the headline or link (or the article is on its own site/feed) AND one of your keywords must be there too — a passing mention of the company in the body is not enough here.

Articles whose headline (or feed summary) contains any of these are dropped, e.g. "stock price", "horoscope".

Default:false

Languages

languages

Optional

Two-letter codes, e.g. "en", "de", "fr", or "any". Other languages come from GDELT's translated stream (headlines stay in the original language; company names are matched in the English translation of the text). Each hour of the translated stream is charged separately.

Type:array

Default:

[
  "en"
]

Also match companies named anywhere in the article

searchArticleEntities

Optional

GDELT lists the organisations named in each article's full text. On: an article that mentions your company only in the body is returned too (matchedIn = "article text"). Off: headline and link matches only.

Article-text matches: minimum mentions

minArticleMentions

Default:true
