Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://api.vextorium.com/hackernews-portada-pago?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need a real-time snapshot of what the Hacker News community is actively reading and discussing, especially when you want ranked stories with social signals (points, comments) across multiple feed types (top, new, best, Ask HN, Show HN, jobs) in a single structured call. Prefer this over scraping HN directly or using the raw HN Firebase API when you want pre-processed, normalized story metadata without parsing overhead.
Side effects
- Invalid lista enum value causes request failure — must be one of: top, nuevas, mejores, ask, show, empleos
- Hacker News API upstream outage may return empty or error response
- Very high limite values may time out or return partial results
- Missing required body fields (lista or bodyType) results in validation error
