# Search Google News for a keyword and get real publisher URLs

**Use case:** 

Searches Google News for the keywords you list (operators like site: and "exact phrase" work) and returns headline, publisher, the publisher's real article URL, publish time and rank, plus front-page topic stories with related coverage. Set a date range for more than 100 stories per keyword, or turn on article text. Swap in your brand, competitors or market.

## Input

```json
{
  "queries": [
    "openai",
    "site:reuters.com tariffs"
  ],
  "topics": [
    "TECHNOLOGY"
  ],
  "edition": "en-US",
  "timeRange": "past-7-days",
  "maxArticlesPerQuery": 25,
  "resolvePublisherUrl": true,
  "includeArticleText": false
}
```

## Output

```json

  "query": {
    "label": "Query that found it",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "publishedAt": {
    "label": "Published at (ISO)",

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/tagadanar/google-news-scraper.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
