aid: worldnewsapi url: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/api-evangelist/worldnewsapi/refs/heads/main/apis.yml name: World News API kind: company description: >- World News API is a real-time and historical news data API covering thousands of sources across 210+ countries and 86+ languages. It provides full-text and semantic news search, geo-targeted local news search (a radius filter around a latitude/longitude point), article content and link extraction from arbitrary URLs, country-level top news clustering, newspaper front-page images, and news-source discovery. Local news search is a first-class feature - resolve a place name to coordinates with the Geo Coordinates endpoint, then pass those coordinates to Search News via the location-filter parameter to find news published or mentioned near that place. Requests are authenticated with an API key (api-key query parameter or x-api-key header) and metered in points against a daily plan allowance. image: https://kinlane-images.s3.amazonaws.com/shared/apis-json/apis-json-logo.jpg tags: - News - Local News - News Search - Media Monitoring - Geo Search - News Data - Sentiment Analysis - Content Extraction created: '2026-07-11' modified: '2026-07-11' specificationVersion: '0.19' apis: - aid: worldnewsapi:worldnewsapi-search-news-api name: World News Search News API tags: - News Search - Local News - Geo Search - Semantic Search image: https://kinlane-images.s3.amazonaws.com/shared/apis-json/apis-json-logo.jpg humanURL: https://worldnewsapi.com/docs/search-news/ baseURL: https://api.worldnewsapi.com properties: - url: https://worldnewsapi.com/docs/search-news/ type: Documentation - url: https://worldnewsapi.com/docs/search-news/ type: APIReference - url: openapi/worldnewsapi-openapi.yml type: OpenAPI - url: collections/worldnewsapi.postman_collection.json type: PostmanCollection - url: collections/worldnewsapi.opencollection.json type: OpenCollection description: >- Search and filter news by keyword, semantic entities, category, language, source country, and publish-date range.
