Managed execution
Every figure below is read from the live Indian Express endpoint catalog — 5 endpoints, 8 documented request parameters, and 5 published response schemas — the same catalog Docs and Playground run against.
5 documented Indian Express endpoints, grouped into 5 request families — Article, Author and Headlines, plus 2 more.
8 request parameters are documented across those Indian Express endpoints, 8 of them required — the full input contract is public before you write any integration code.
5 of the 5 Indian Express endpoints ship a recorded example response, and 5 carry a documented response schema — you can code against the real JSON before the first request.
Indian Express endpoints document their error responses (400, 403, 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.
5 hosted MCP tools back the Indian Express endpoints, so an agent can call the same routes with the same parameters and the same JSON contract, with no custom glue.

MCP tool indianexpress_author
/indianexpress/headlinesReturns the current headlines for one The Indian Express section. `section` is required and takes a slug such as `india`, `explained`, `cities-delhi`, `entertainment-bollywood`, `sports-cricket` or `political-pulse`. Items carry title, URL, summary, author, publication time and image, and the response echoes the `section`.
MCP tool indianexpress_headlines
/indianexpress/newsReturns the current top stories from The Indian Express. It takes no parameters. Each item has its title, URL and, where the outlet gives them, a summary, author, publication time, image URL and `type`. Use the headlines endpoint to read one section.

How to scrape Indian Express
The Indian Express combines Indian national reporting with investigations, judiciary coverage, regional editions, and its Explained format. These formats are particularly useful for institutional research: an investigation may reveal a new finding, while an explainer supplies background on an existing policy or court matter. Keep format, city, institution, and date alongside every article so those roles remain clear in downstream analysis.
Call /indianexpress/sections to inspect the publisher's current taxonomy. Browse India, cities, Explained, legal, business, and sports sections to match the study. A city edition may reveal local effects of a national decision.
Use /indianexpress/headlines for a selected section and /indianexpress/news for the broader current stream. Use section headlines to gather current cases or policy developments. Store the desk name to distinguish a breaking report from the publication's explanatory coverage.
Pass a canonical public URL to /indianexpress/article and use /indianexpress/author for the named contributor when available. Retrieve the complete public story and contributor profile to extract the court, agency, or jurisdiction involved. Link follow-ups by case or institution, not headline similarity alone.
Deduplicate stories by canonical URL, keep the collection date and publisher section, and retain the article's original publication time. For Indian institutions research, compare like editorial formats and geographic scopes rather than treating every item in the latest feed as equivalent.
FAQ
It provides context for complex Indian policy and public-affairs topics. Treat an Explained article as analysis of an issue rather than a newly occurring event, and retain its publication date because the background may be revised later.
Use city-oriented sections for discovery and capture the actual city or state from each article body. A national story may mention several locations, so do not assign a single region solely from its feed placement.
They can share an issue tag, but keep the article format as another dimension. An investigation may present findings, while an explainer contextualizes an already public event or decision.
