Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://scrapfly.vercel.app/api/news/topic?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need to quickly retrieve current news articles for a specific topic without setting up your own scraper, especially when operating in an agentic workflow that supports x402 micropayments on Base chain. It is well-suited for one-off topic-based news lookups rather than continuous monitoring or full-site crawling.
Side effects
- Invalid or empty topic string returns an error or empty results
- Topic too broad may return low-relevance results
- External news sources unavailable may cause scraping failures
- Rate limiting or payment failure on Base chain blocks the request
- Malformed request body missing required 'topic' field returns validation error
