Overview#

The NewsCatcher API lets you tap into a wealth of news articles from various sources around the globe. By using this API within Pipedream, you can automate the retrieval of the latest news based on keywords, topics, or languages, and integrate this data into numerous applications or workflows. Use it to keep tabs on industry trends, monitor brand mentions, or aggregate news for specific research topics.

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    newscatcher: {
      type: "app",
      app: "newscatcher",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://api.newscatcherapi.com/v2/search`,
      headers: {
        "x-api-key": `${this.newscatcher.$auth.api_key}`,
      },
      params: {
        "q": `Pipedream`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Example Use Cases#

Automated News Alerts to Slack: Use the NewsCatcher API to monitor news for specific keywords. When an article of interest is published, Pipedream can automatically send a message with the article details to a designated Slack channel. This keeps teams informed in real-time about relevant news updates.
Sentiment Analysis of News Articles: Combine NewsCatcher with a sentiment analysis tool like the sentiment npm package available in Pipedream. Fetch articles on a particular subject, analyze the sentiment of the content, and store the results. This can help in market research or understanding public perception on certain topics.
Curated Newsletters with SendGrid: Leverage the NewsCatcher API to pull the latest articles for your niche audience. Use Pipedream to format this information and send it through SendGrid as part of a regular newsletter, providing subscribers with a digest of the most pertinent news tailored to their interests.

Authentication#
