Managed execution
Every figure below is read from the live Yahoo Life endpoint catalog — 2 endpoints, 3 documented request parameters, and 2 published response schemas — the same catalog Docs and Playground run against.
2 documented Yahoo Life endpoints, grouped into 2 request families — Article and Home.
3 request parameters are documented across those Yahoo Life endpoints, 3 of them required — the full input contract is public before you write any integration code.
2 of the 2 Yahoo Life endpoints ship a recorded example response, and 2 carry a documented response schema — you can code against the real JSON before the first request.
Yahoo Life endpoints document their error responses (400, 404, 429, 500 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.
2 hosted MCP tools back the Yahoo Life endpoints, so an agent can call the same routes with the same parameters and the same JSON contract, with no custom glue.
Coverage map
These cards are generated from the active endpoint catalog, so the landing page reflects the same API surface used by Docs and Playground.
/yahoo-life/article
/yahoo-life/home
Endpoint catalog
/yahoo-life/homeReturns Yahoo Life's homepage editorial story feed: title, destination URL, and thumbnail image for each story. Sourced from Yahoo Life's own server-rendered homepage.
Response notes
- Items have no `category` field. Yahoo Life article URLs are flat (`https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/article/<slug>.html`), with no category path segment to derive one from. - The homepage feed can include stories from sibling Yahoo verticals (e.g. health.yahoo.com) alongside Yahoo Life's own -- only a genuine `www.yahoo.com/lifestyle` article URL can be fetched back through this platform's article endpoint. - A blocked or CAPTCHA-served response returns `503`. Example response: ```json { "code": 200, "msg": "OK", "data": { "items": [ { "id": "133000932", "title": "Water bottles, bag charms and analog everything: 100 back-to-school trends kids actually care about in 2026", "url": "https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/article/water-bottles-bag-charms-and-analog-everything-100-back-to-school-trends-kids-actually-care-about-in-2026-133000932.html", "thumbnail_url": "https://s.yimg.com/lo/mysterio/api/example/bts-hub-header.jpg" } ] } } ```
MCP tool yahoo_life_home
/yahoo-life/articleReturns a single Yahoo Life article's full content: title, description, author, publish/update time, section, image, keywords, original publisher, and body paragraphs. Accepts a canonical www.yahoo.com/lifestyle article URL, such as one returned by the home story stream.
Response notes
- `provider` is the original outlet the story is syndicated from when applicable, otherwise `"Yahoo Life"`. - `paragraphs` can be an empty array for an article whose metadata loaded but whose body content did not render -- this is returned as a normal `200`, not an error. A response missing *both* metadata and body paragraphs is treated as an upstream error (parser drift or a block), not a silent empty success. - A `url` that isn't a `www.yahoo.com` URL under `/lifestyle/` returns `400`. `www.yahoo.com` hosts several unrelated verticals (news, finance, sports, ...), so both the hostname and the `/lifestyle/` path prefix are required. Example response: ```json { "code": 200, "msg": "OK", "data": { "url": "https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/article/water-bottles-bag-charms-and-analog-everything-100-back-to-school-trends-kids-actually-care-about-in-2026-133000932.html", "title": "Water bottles, bag charms and analog everything: 100 back-to-school trends kids actually care about in 2026", "description": "Going back to school used to be simple: buy the stuff on the list.", "author": "Erin Donnelly", "published_at": "2026-08-11T13:30:00Z", "updated_at": "2026-08-11T13:30:00Z", "section": "Yahoo Lifestyle", "image_url": "https://s.yimg.com/lo/mysterio/api/example/bts-hub-header.png", "keywords": ["college students", "school supplies", "water bottle"], "provider": "Yahoo Life", "paragraphs": [ "Tiny humans, huge shopping list. The littlest schoolers are messy, filled to the brim with emotions." ] } } ```

FAQ
No. Yahoo Life has no public developer API. Crawlora's endpoints read yahoo.com/lifestyle's own server-rendered pages and return the data as normalized JSON.
No — unlike the other Yahoo content APIs, Yahoo Life's article URLs carry no category path segment, so there's no section endpoint to filter by. Use the homepage endpoint for the full story feed.
Pass the article's URL (returned by the home endpoint as each story's url field) to /yahoo-life/article.
