Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://x402-proxy.monid.workers.dev/api/newsWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need categorized news headlines via a pay-per-call micropayment model using x402 on Base (USDC), especially if you are already integrated with the x402 payment protocol and want lightweight, per-use news access without a subscription. Prefer alternatives if you need full-text articles, advanced search filters, or do not have an x402-compatible wallet.
Side effects
- Payment not completed or insufficient USDC balance — returns 402 Payment Required with no data
- Invalid or unsupported category string — may return empty results array
- NewsData.io upstream outage — proxy returns an error or empty results
- Missing category query parameter — defaults to 'general' category
- Rate limits on underlying NewsData.io account — may return reduced or empty results
