Managed execution
How Crawlora handles this platform
Every figure below is read from the live Reuters endpoint catalog — 6 endpoints, 12 documented request parameters, and 6 published response schemas — the same catalog Docs and Playground run against.
Documented endpoint coverage
6 documented Reuters endpoints, grouped into 6 request families — Article, Articles and Author, plus 3 more.
Published request surface
12 request parameters are documented across those Reuters endpoints, 9 of them required — the full input contract is public before you write any integration code.
Known response shape
6 of the 6 Reuters endpoints ship a recorded example response, and 6 carry a documented response schema — you can code against the real JSON before the first request.
Documented failure modes
Reuters endpoints document their error responses (400, 404, 429 and 503) alongside the success schema, so a block, a rate limit, or a missing record comes back as a typed error rather than silently empty data.
Agent-callable MCP tools
6 hosted MCP tools back the Reuters endpoints, so an agent can call the same routes with the same parameters and the same JSON contract, with no custom glue.

How to scrape Reuters
Extract Reuters data in 5 steps
Crawlora's Reuters data API reads reuters.com directly, and its two list endpoints aren't interchangeable: a 2026-09-24 pull of /reuters/news returned 50 items, but several weren't in English — Portuguese, Spanish, and German headlines from Reuters' regional desks sat alongside the English wire. /reuters/articles, pulled the same minute, came back English-only. Sections, section archives, article extraction, and author lookups round out the rest, all normalized into JSON with one key.
- Step 1
Pick a Reuters section from the accepted list
Call /reuters/sections for the accepted values — world, business, markets, technology, sports, legal, sustainability, commentary, lifestyle, science, live, podcasts, media-center, investigations, fact-check, wider-image, city-memo, data, and video.
- Step 2
Pull current stories
Call /reuters/news for Reuters' full multilingual wire, or /reuters/articles for an English-only current listing — useful when downstream processing assumes one language.
- Step 3
Read a section archive
Pass a slug from /reuters/sections to /reuters/section. A 2026-09-24 technology pull ran roughly 80 items deep and skewed heavily toward AI coverage, from Meta's new Muse Charm gadget to SoftBank's $11.1 billion bond sale to fund its OpenAI stake.
- Step 4
Open a Reuters URL for authors and ordered paragraphs
Pass a canonical reuters.com URL to /reuters/article for authors, description, and ordered body paragraphs.
- Step 5
Look up a byline
Pass a canonical reuters.com/authors/<slug>/ URL to /reuters/author for that reporter's profile and recent bylines.

FAQ
Scraping Reuters: common questions
Why would /reuters/news include a non-English headline?
Reuters runs regional desks — Brasil, España, Deutschland — into the same rolling feed as the English wire. A 2026-09-24 pull mixed Portuguese items like a Brazilian central-bank story with English business news. /reuters/articles, by contrast, returned an English-only list at the same moment, so pick it when you need a single-language stream.
How many sections does Reuters expose?
19, confirmed live on 2026-09-24 — everything from world and markets to niche verticals like fact-check, city-memo, and wider-image. Call /reuters/sections rather than hardcoding the list; it reflects Reuters' current public navigation.
Does /reuters/author return a reporter's complete archive?
No — it returns a recent slice, not the full history. Aditya Soni's author page reported total_articles: 294 but the payload itself listed roughly 20 recent pieces, spanning late July through late September 2026.
What does Reuters article extraction return?
Normalized metadata and the ordered body paragraphs from a canonical reuters.com URL, ticker references and all — the Meta Charm gadget article, for instance, kept inline stock references like "(META.O)" intact. Malformed, blocked, or unsupported upstream responses come back as typed errors instead of partial content.
Does Reuters offer its own public news API?
Not a self-serve one. Reuters is owned by Thomson Reuters, and its real-time news is licensed to media and financial customers through sales contracts, for example via Reuters Connect or LSEG Workspace. Crawlora reads Reuters' public pages instead, with Crawlora's own API key as the only credential involved.
