Yahoo News API endpoint
Use Crawlora's Yahoo News Related Articles API to extract supported public Yahoo News data as structured JSON. This page includes request parameters, cURL examples, response schema, error behavior, credit cost, and a Playground link for testing before integration.
/yahoo-news/relatedReturns a page of articles Yahoo recommends alongside a given article -- the "you may also like" strip at the bottom of an article page -- with cursor-based pagination. Sourced from Yahoo's own recommendation gateway. Developers commonly use this endpoint for data enrichment, monitoring, research dashboards, internal automation, and agent-native workflows that need repeatable structured public web data. Authentication uses the documented Crawlora headers, and usage is metered with the credit cost shown on this page.
Request parameters are generated from the active endpoint catalog. Required values must be sent before Crawlora can call the upstream public web data source.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| content_id | string | Yes | Article id (the id field returned by home/category/article) | ||
| cursor | string | No | Pagination cursor from a previous response's next_cursor | ||
| count | integer | No | Number of related articles to return, default 10, clamped to 1..50 | ||
| x-api-key (header) | string | Yes | API key required |
curl -X GET "https://api.crawlora.net/api/v1/yahoo-news/related?count=10" \ -H "x-api-key: $CRAWLORA_API_KEY"
Send your scraping API key in the x-api-key header. Use the console API Keys page to rotate or select the active key.
Endpoint usage is metered in credits. The plan prices, included credits, limits, and overage rates below match the active backend billing configuration.
| Plan | Price | Included credits | Daily cap | Rate limit | Overage |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0/mo | 2,000 | 500 daily credits | 5/min | No overage |
| Starter | $9/mo | 20,000 | 5,000 daily credits | 15/min | $0.75/1,000 overage credits when enabled |
| Growth | $29/mo | 100,000 | 25,000 daily credits | 45/min | $0.45/1,000 overage credits when enabled |
| Pro | $79/mo | 400,000 | No daily cap | 120/min | $0.30/1,000 overage credits |
| Business | $199/mo | 1,200,000 | No daily cap | 300/min | $0.20/1,000 overage credits |
| Enterprise | $499/mo | 5,000,000 | No daily cap | 1,000/min | $0.12/1,000 overage credits |
This endpoint is executed through Crawlora's managed scraping infrastructure.
- Each item is the same story-card shape as `/yahoo-news/home` and `/yahoo-news/category`: `id`, `title`, `url`, `summary`, `published_at`, `source`, `source_url`, `category`, `comment_count`, `thumbnail_url`, and sized `images`. - `has_next_page`/`next_cursor` drive pagination: pass `next_cursor` back as `cursor` to fetch the next page. `next_cursor` is omitted once `has_next_page` is `false`. - Recommendations are a mix of stories from many publishers, not limited to the seed article's own category or source. - `content_id` must look like a Yahoo News article id (a UUID); a malformed value returns `400` before any upstream request is made. A well-formed but nonexistent id still returns a successful page of generic recommendations rather than an error -- this matches Yahoo's own upstream behavior. Example response: ```json { "code": 200, "msg": "OK", "data": { "content_id": "6463c2b7-dfa6-3313-9e0d-a0b1cb5e6506", "items": [ { "id": "71fc77ef-f02d-3e6c-9114-20d641f0381a", "title": "Trump Humiliated as U.N.

Crawlora does not silently return bad data when the upstream page cannot be used.
| Status | Common failure case |
|---|---|
| 400 | Invalid input or missing required parameter |
| 429 | Plan or endpoint rate limit exceeded |
| 500 | Internal execution error |
| 502 | Upstream platform failed, returned unusable HTML, or served a challenge page that could not be resolved |
When possible, Crawlora returns structured error context so your integration can retry, back off, or inspect the request.
