Frequently asked questions about Social Issues News

How do I pull social issues news from the API?

Call GET /v1/search?q=social issues with your apiKey to return recent social issues stories as structured JSON. Add &category= or &country= to narrow the results.

What does NewsMesh tag on each social issues story?

Every social issues article carries its category, the countries it's relevant to, and the named people detected in the body, so you can route and filter without your own NLP layer.

Yes. NewsMesh is a real-time news API: social issues stories are served through the live /v1/latest and /v1/trending endpoints alongside a searchable archive, each tagged with its category, the countries it's relevant to, and the named people detected in the body, so you can build a live feed without scraping HTML.
