Start for free

Develop and test your applications for free, once your application is ready for production, activating your subscription only takes a few minutes.

Fast response & accurate

We store the news articles in our database in order to have the lowest possible response time and an outstandingly accurate search.

Easy-to-use

Our documentation is extremely easy to understand so you don't have to worry about integrating the API into your applications.

Worldwide Scale

Our database contains tens of millions of articles that we have collected from over 60,000 sources in 22 languages across 30 countries. You can filter articles by language, country or both. It is important to note that the country filter is applied on the country of the source and not on the country that might be the subject of an article. In other words, filtering by country allows you to know the media coverage for a country according to your search.

Response Performance

The response time of our news API is very important to us, we do our best to keep it as short as possible. The average response time of the API is between 100 and 200 ms.

News Articles Data

We use advanced extraction techniques to retrieve the different attributes that make up an article. Data quality is our number one concern and we do absolutely everything we can to ensure that it is always excellent.

Easy Integration

Get API results in JSON format via HTTP GET requests in any programming language and easily integrate them into your applications. To use the API it's as simple as this: you make a request, get the results, parse the JSON and the data is ready to be used. If you have difficulties integrating the API you can contact us through our chat or send us an email with the form below.

Live News Articles

We have created a system that runs continuously to retrieve any new article published on the sources we cover. As soon as a new article is found it is immediately added to our database and accessible through the API.

Historic Data

Articles stored in our database are never deleted, so you can view the history of published articles we have stored over the years with our news API. You can with the help of some filters retrieve articles published in 2021, 2020, etc.

FAQ

You will find below our FAQ, if you do not find an answer to your question do not hesitate to contact us with the form below.

GNews API can not be used in commercial projects with a free subscription. The free subscription plan is made for non-commercial projects or for development and testing purposes.

When you have reached the daily request limit you cannot retrieve any more data and the API returns an error message (Error 403). Note that the request counter is reset to zero every day at 00:00 UTC.

If you need a custom plan, please contact us by email: contact@gnews.io or by using our contact form on our main page. Please note that no custom plan can be free and it is only possible to request higher features than the Essential plan.

When you change your subscription plan, your invoice is calculated so that you pay based on how many days you used the old subscription this month and how many days you have left with the new subscription. This means that you don't pay any additional fees, only what you use.

When a payment error occurs, Stripe will automatically try to make the payment 4 times over the next two weeks. If all attempts fail, your subscription will be canceled and downgraded. You will automatically receive reminder emails during the two weeks.

Your subscription can be canceled at any time at no additional cost in the "User Profile" section of the dashboard, simply check the "Cancel subscription at end of the period" box and click on the "Update Profile" button.

Yes, just send us an email using the form below and we will provide you with a key so you can test the API.

For the parameter "from" and "to" the date must exactly respect the format Y-m-dTH:i:sZ (where Y is the year on 4 digits, m the month on two digits from 1 to 12, d the day on two digits, H the hour on 2 digits from 0 to 23, i the minutes on 2 digits from 0 to 59 and s the seconds on two digits from 0 to 59). For example this date is valid 2022-01-01T12:30:45Z but this one is not valid 2022-01-01T12:30:45.1000Z

The full content of the articles is a feature that is reserved for subscribers. In order for the API to return the full content, you need to add this to the query string of the request: expand=content

Unfortunately, it is not yet possible to filter the results with a list of sources.
