Migrate from V1/RapidAPI
Migrating on our own Managing Platform is a well-considered step that goes align with V2 of Our News API.
In V2 we improved:
- Extraction Algorithms. We now are able to extract news from almost any website.
- Over 60 000 news sources. Compare to 30 000 in V1.
- Around 1 million a day. Compare to 400k in V1.
- New Parameters.
- New output variables are given for each article.
published_date_precision
,is_opinion
,twitter_account
published_date_precision
There are 3 types of date precision we define:full
— day and time of an article is correctly identified with the appropriate timezonetimezone unknown
— day and time of an article is correctly identified without timezonedate
— only the day is identified without an exact time
countries
and not_countries
are now used instead of country
and now multiple countries can be searched for.lang
and not_lang
are also available now.If you want to migrate, you do not need a RapidAPI User account anymore. Everything will be managed by our own platform.
