Managed execution
How Crawlora handles this platform
Every figure below is read from the live GhanaWeb endpoint catalog — 9 endpoints, 16 documented request parameters, and 9 published response schemas — the same catalog Docs and Playground run against.
Documented endpoint coverage
9 documented GhanaWeb endpoints, grouped into 8 request families — Archive, Article and Headlines, plus 5 more.
Published request surface
16 request parameters are documented across those GhanaWeb endpoints, 14 of them required — the full input contract is public before you write any integration code.
Known response shape
9 of the 9 GhanaWeb endpoints ship a recorded example response, and 9 carry a documented response schema — you can code against the real JSON before the first request.
Documented failure modes
GhanaWeb 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
9 hosted MCP tools back the GhanaWeb 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 GhanaWeb
Extract GhanaWeb data in 4 steps
GhanaWeb is Ghanaian news and entertainment coverage across politics, business, sports, opinions, health, lifestyle, and regional/world stories. A live /ghanaweb/sections response on 2026-10-14 contained 15 section records; refresh it before scheduling because publisher feeds change. Use the returned section list to select article-bearing desks; Education and Religion were omitted after they failed to produce story cards. For historical coverage, discover month values through archive/months, then request YYYYMM with page and limit. Video sections are separate from article desks and accept only documented news, sports, business, and entertainment values. Article URLs must contain the supported numeric story ID. The archive is month-based, not a general author search; publisher pages state that stories do not carry individual bylines, so the organization name is not a person profile. Use the endpoint cards for this integration's accepted inputs. Publisher reference: https://www.ghanaweb.com/
- Step 1
Refresh GhanaWeb's editorial inventory
A live /ghanaweb/sections response on 2026-10-14 contained 15 section records; refresh it before scheduling because publisher feeds change. Use the returned section list to select article-bearing desks; Education and Religion were omitted after they failed to produce story cards. For historical coverage, discover month values through archive/months, then request YYYYMM with page and limit. Video sections are separate from article desks and accept only documented news, sports, business, and entertainment values.
- Step 2
Plan around GhanaWeb's source-specific constraints
The month archive requires a YYYYMM value discovered from archive/months, alongside the documented page and limit. Keep video section values separate from article sections, and use numeric story IDs for article lookup; publisher guidance says stories do not carry individual bylines.
- Step 3
Carry GhanaWeb section context into each headline pull
The month archive requires a YYYYMM value discovered from archive/months, alongside the documented page and limit. Keep video section values separate from article sections, and use numeric story IDs for article lookup; publisher guidance says stories do not carry individual bylines. Pass only a value returned by /ghanaweb/sections and accepted by /ghanaweb/headlines; preserve the selected desk with its results.
- Step 4
Check GhanaWeb article access before using body text
Article URLs must contain the supported numeric story ID. The archive is month-based, not a general author search; publisher pages state that stories do not carry individual bylines, so the organization name is not a person profile. Keep teaser, truncation, premium, or access fields beside the canonical URL so downstream users can see what the publisher actually returned.
