Input

Field	Type	Description
keywords	array	List of keywords to search for. You can use Google News search operators: - Use '-' to exclude words (e.g. 'bitcoin -ethereum') - Use 'site:' to filter by specific website (e.g. 'bitcoin site:cnn.com') - Use 'OR' to search for multiple terms (e.g. 'bitcoin OR ethereum') - Use quotes for exact match (e.g. '"bitcoin price"') default []
topics	array	Select one or more predefined Google News topics to scrape. default []
topicUrls	array	Provide custom Google News topic or section URLs to scrape. Useful for niche topics not in the predefined list. Example: https://news.google.com/topics/CAAqJggKIiBDQkFTRWdvSUwyMHZNRGx1YlY4U0FtVnVHZ0pWVXlnQVAB default []
maxArticles	integer	Maximum number of news to extract per keyword or topic (0 = no limit) default 100
timeframe	string (1h \| 1d \| 7d \| 30d \| 1y \| all)	Time period for the news search. Note: this filter applies mainly to keyword searches. Topic pages return their own curated results. default "1h"

decodeUrls	boolean	If enabled, decodes Google News URLs to get the original article URLs. Note: This will significantly slow down the scraping process as each URL needs to be decoded individually. default false
extractDescriptions	boolean	If enabled, extracts the meta description from each article page. Note: This will significantly slow down the scraping process. default false
extractImages	boolean	Fetches the og:image from each article page when no image is available (mainly for RSS/topic results). When this option is not explicitly set, images are extracted by default. Toggle OFF to skip image extraction and speed up scraping. default true
