# Track a Brand in Google News — Articles with Real URLs

**Use case:** 

Everything Google News carries about a brand or topic in the last seven days, as a table. One row per article with the headline, the outlet and its domain, publish time, a snippet and the real article URL, decoded from the Google redirect rather than the redirect itself. This example follows Shopify in the US edition. Add as many queries as you like and schedule it daily.

## Input

```json
{
  "queries": [
    "Shopify"
  ],
  "daysBack": 7,
  "mode": "articles",
  "country": "us",
  "language": "",
  "resolveUrls": true,
  "maxArticlesPerQuery": 100
}
```

## Output

```json
{
  "query": {
    "label": "Query"
  },
  "publishedAt": {
    "label": "Published"
  },
  "title": {
    "label": "Headline"
  },
  "source": {
    "label": "Outlet"
  },
  "articleUrl": {
    "label": "Article URL"
  },
  "sourceDomain": {
    "label": "Domain"
  },
  "urlResolved": {
    "label": "URL resolved",
    "format": "boolean"
  },
  "resolveNote": {
    "label": "Resolve note",
    "format": "text"
  }
}
```

## 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/tidyfeed/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`).
