Endpoint Playground
Returns one page of BBB newsroom cards from a canonical BBB newsroom URL. Three scopes are accepted, each with an optional topic: the US or Canada newsroom (/us/news), a state, province or city newsroom (/us/ca/news, /us/ca/san-francisco/news), and one local BBB chapter's own newsroom (/local-bbb/<chapter>/news, the news_url returned by bbb-local-bbbs and bbb-local-bbb). The list is whatever BBB shows on that page: a city or chapter whose local BBB publishes its own stories returns those, and other cities, other chapters and the state pages checked so far return the same list as the country newsroom, so compare total and the first items with the country newsroom before treating a list as local. A chapter URL also returns local_bbb_id and local_bbb_name. Items preserve BBB's type and include Article stories, events, and Near Me related-service cards when present. Near Me URLs are restricted to BBB's /near-me/<slug> paths. Every page carries total_pages and has_more: request page + 1 while has_more is true and stop when it is false; a page past the end returns 404. Event dates and links are preserved when present.
