Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://cycle-angela-lamp-hamburg.trycloudflare.com/api/sentiment/newsWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need a fast, broad sweep of recent global news coverage on any topic, powered by GDELT's near-real-time indexing of thousands of media sources worldwide. Prefer this over social media APIs when you need structured article metadata (title, source, URL, publish time) rather than social posts or sentiment scores. Ideal for narrative monitoring, competitive intelligence, and geopolitical awareness tasks.
Side effects
- No articles found for obscure or misspelled topic — returns no_signals: true
- Missing or empty ?q= parameter may return an error or empty results
- GDELT indexing lag may mean very breaking news is not yet present
- Cloudflare tunnel may be temporarily unavailable, returning 5xx
- Rate limiting or payment failure returns 402 Payment Required
