What is News Scraper?
News Scraper is Scrappey's specialized API for extracting public news content from news outlets you're authorized to access, across hundreds of publications worldwide. Unlike manual scraping that requires handling each site's unique structure and JavaScript rendering, News Scraper automatically renders dynamic content to return clean, structured article data.
Built for media intelligence, financial monitoring, and news aggregation, News Scraper supports major publishers (major financial news outlets, international broadcasters), regional news (hundreds of local and international sources), and 25+ languages with proper character encoding. Each request returns article title, content, author, publish date, images, and metadata in clean JSON format.
What makes News Scraper special is its comprehensive coverage: from breaking financial news to regional publications, from English to Arabic to Chinese, all accessible through a single API. No need to build custom parsers for each site or manage browser rendering – we do it all automatically. For subscription content, use your own authorized account credentials.
