News

Authenticated Google News methods for publisher presence checks, recent publication counts, and news-source monitoring.

Paid News methods are for monitoring publisher presence and recent activity in Google News. They build on the same RSS-based signal as the public checker, with authenticated workflows for larger domain sets and recurring checks.

#Main methods

  • Domain check: determine whether Google News RSS returns publications for a domain.
  • Bulk audit: check domain lists and return found/missing status per publisher.
  • Recent publications: return publication count, latest RSS items, source labels, and published timestamps.
  • Publisher monitoring: use repeated checks to track whether a source remains active in Google News.

#Public companion

The public version is documented at Google News public API. It is useful for quick checks and small lists, with a daily IP quota.

Paid access uses API-key authentication via X-API-Key or Authorization: Bearer.
