## google_news/search

`GET /v1/google_news/search`

Search Google News by keyword, edition, publisher and dates. Results may link through Google News redirects. Country selects the edition, not publisher domicile. At most 100 articles are returned; strict dates omit unknown dates. The GDELT fallback index identifies its different coverage in warnings.

*News search*

| Parameter | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `keyword` | yes | Search phrase — e.g. `artificial intelligence` |
| `depth` | no | Requested articles, 1–250 for compatibility. The primary source returns at most 100; a larger request is explicitly partial. Dates and publisher filters can reduce the delivered count. — e.g. `25` |
| `language_code` | no | Language code for the news edition (for example en), not a detected language of each article. — e.g. `en` |
| `location_code` | no | Two-letter country edition (for example US or GB), not a filter or observation of publisher domicile. — e.g. `us` |
| `publisher` | no | Restrict to one publisher domain — e.g. `bbc.co.uk` |
| `time_range` | no | hour, day, week or month — e.g. `week` |
| `from` | no | ISO-8601 start of an explicit window — e.g. `2026-08-01` |
| `to` | no | ISO-8601 end of an explicit window — e.g. `2026-08-31` |
| `dry_run` | no | Read a zero-credit estimate without fetching sources, running AI, or reserving credits. Cache status is a snapshot, not a guarantee at execution. — e.g. `1` |
| `group` | no | Optional stories groups related returned news headlines with links back to every original row. Default none. A conservative local comparison, not AI, deduplication, corroboration, a count of distinct events or a claim of article equivalence. Original results and order remain available; at most 100 returned rows are compared. No extra source or model calls or credit surcharge. — e.g. `stories` |

**Cost:** 1 credit at list price per successful uncached response; variable-cost operations may quote or settle a different charge. Confirmed uncharged or refunded failures report zero. Pending reconciliation can report credits_used:null; retain request_id and the original idempotency key.
