Overview

Keep track of the latest coverage for the topics you care about. This actor searches Google News for the keywords and regions you provide and delivers fresh headlines, snippets, and links in a structured dataset that is ready for further analysis or automation.

What You Get

• Source links, titles, and metadata bundled into the actor run dataset.
• A run summary that highlights how many items were collected for every query.

How To Use

1. Decide which topics you want to follow and the countries or languages that matter to you.
2. Provide the searches in the actor input as shown below.
3. (Optional) Set limitMultipleResults if you want to cap the number of articles per search.
4. Run the actor and download the dataset or export it to your preferred format.
