Scrapes Yahoo News search results for a query, including headline, article URL, publisher, snippet, publication time, thumbnail, and result metadata when available.
What this Actor collects
The Actor creates one dataset item per Yahoo News result and retains both normalized and source-displayed publication times.
- Uses the input limits and filters below to control the crawl.
- Stores source-backed fields defined by the 24-field dataset schema.
- Optional publisher, timing, image, and engagement fields are populated only when Yahoo exposes them.
Use cases
- News monitoring
- Publisher and topic research
- Article-feed enrichment
Input
Provide input in JSON. Fields marked required must be supplied; source-specific alternatives and constraints are described in the field text.

maxItems | integer | No | 50 | Maximum number of news articles to scrape. |

language | string | No | "en" | Yahoo language code (e.g. 'en', 'de', 'fr'). |
timeRange | string | No | "" | Recency filter: 1d, 7d, or 30d; empty means no recency filter. |
