Google News extraction / 2026

How to scrape data from Google News in 2026

Google News groups current reporting from many publishers, but its browser interface is not a stable ingestion format. A normalized article feed keeps the public title, publisher, date, summary, and source link in a predictable shape for downstream systems.

Quick answer

Use the public page URL you already have.

Send the ordinary public Google News URL to extractor.sh. Choose JSON for stable fields or Markdown when an AI model will read the result directly. The API uses GET, so an identical successful request can be served from Cloudflare’s edge cache.

curl --get 'https://extractor.sh/api/extract' \
  --data-urlencode 'url=https://news.google.com/search?q=Cloudflare&hl=en-US&gl=US&ceid=US%3Aen' \
  --data-urlencode 'format=json'

Available data

What you can extract

  • Up to 50 public article results per page
  • Article titles, publishers, and publisher URLs when available
  • Publication timestamps and public summaries
  • Source-linked article entities in one normalized feed

AI workflows

Where normalized data helps

  • Current-events research agents
  • Source discovery for RAG pipelines
  • Publisher and topic monitoring
  • News classification and enrichment

AI-ready output

Markdown for models. JSON for systems.

Raw HTML consumes tokens on navigation, scripts, styling, and interface labels. Clean Markdown keeps the readable hierarchy for LLM prompts and RAG chunks. Normalized JSON is better when your application needs an explicit semantic type, source, author, publication date, media, attributes, and collection items.

Always retain the canonical URL from the response. AI-generated summaries should remain traceable to the public source, especially when the underlying page can change.

Boundaries

Public data only

  • Search, topic, and top-stories pages are supported; personalized For You results are unavailable.
  • The result contains public metadata and summaries, not the full publisher article body.
  • Google Search and Google Shopping are separate products and are not included.

extractor.sh does not bypass CAPTCHAs, login walls, paywalls, access controls, or regional restrictions. Review the source’s terms and applicable law before collecting or reusing data.
