News APIs contract endpoint

POST https://allthemapis.com/api/v1/news/search

This is our proposed customer-facing interface. Provider fulfillment and category-specific keys are not enabled yet. Calls currently return 503 integration_not_enabled; they do not execute a query or spend credits. Existing Search API trial keys do not unlock this category.

Request access for your workload before connecting an application.

Request fields

Proposed request schema
Field	Type	Meaning
query	string, required	Topic or entity query; do not assume identical Boolean semantics across providers.
language	string	Two-letter language code.
from	ISO 8601 datetime	Inclusive publication-time lower bound in UTC.
to	ISO 8601 datetime	Publication-time upper bound in UTC.
limit	integer	1 to 50 records, subject to access.
cursor	string	Opaque continuation token returned by the previous page.

News APIs example request

curl -X POST "https://allthemapis.com/api/v1/news/search" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $ALLTHEMAPIS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
  "query": "\"battery recycling\"",
  "language": "en",
  "from": "2026-10-01T00:00:00Z",
  "to": "2026-10-02T00:00:00Z",
  "limit": 10
}'

The example defines the contract; it is not a completed API call.

Response fields and errors

Intended response fields after access enablement
Field	Meaning
articles[]	Title, source URL, publisher, language, publication time and available excerpt.
next_cursor	Opaque continuation token or null; never a promise of complete archive coverage.
retrieved_at	Time of retrieval, distinct from article publication.
request_id	Request identifier. Full-text rights are not implied by this contract.

Give the contract to your coding agent

This prompt prepares an adapter without treating a fixture as a successful live request.

Endpoint: POST https://allthemapis.com/api/v1/news/search
Request shape:
{
  "query": "\"battery recycling\"",
  "language": "en",
  "from": "2026-10-01T00:00:00Z",
  "to": "2026-10-02T00:00:00Z",
  "limit": 10
}

This category requires access enablement and currently returns HTTP 503 integration_not_enabled. Do not execute requests or claim success until access is confirmed.
Read ALLTHEMAPIS_API_KEY from a server-side environment variable only. Never place it in browser code, URLs or logs. Use a bounded timeout, handle 401/429/503 explicitly, and keep null/missing fields distinct from valid zero values. Do not retry indefinitely.
Expected output fields:
- articles[]: Title, source URL, publisher, language, publication time and available excerpt.
- next_cursor: Opaque continuation token or null; never a promise of complete archive coverage.
- retrieved_at: Time of retrieval, distinct from article publication.
- request_id: Request identifier. Full-text rights are not implied by this contract.

Build the adapter and unit tests against an explicitly labeled local fixture. Do not fabricate live results. Summarize what access and production verification are still required.
