Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://search.openverbs.com/v1/news?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need live, ranked news articles from Google News with localisation by country and language. Prefer it over general web search endpoints when the user explicitly wants news coverage, headlines, or press articles rather than general web pages. It is especially strong for real-time current-events queries where recency and source credibility matter, and when language or geographic filtering is required.
Side effects
- Empty results if the query matches no recent news articles
- Missing timestamp or source fields for some articles where Google News does not surface them
- Query too long (over 700 characters) returns a validation error
- Invalid 2-letter language code returns a validation error
- Payment failure via x402 protocol blocks the request before any search is performed
- Rate limiting or upstream Google News unavailability may return a 5xx error
