FAQ
Google News scraper FAQ
Empty or thin results?
Lower concurrency, enable Apify Proxy, and try a narrower time_period.
Which countries / languages?
Use gl + hl first; add lr / cr if you need stricter filters.
Is this a Google News API?
No official API for this shape — the Actor returns structured results you can pipe into your stack. A solid Google News API alternative when you need datasets, not widgets.
