How to use 9to5Google endpoints

9to5Google is a Google-focused technology newsroom covering Android and Chrome software, Pixel and Nest devices, and the broader Google ecosystem. A live /ninetofivegoogle/sections response on 2026-10-14 contained 63 feed records; refresh it before scheduling because publisher feeds change. Use /news for broad recent RSS discovery and /sections to refresh the 63 accepted feeds: 58 currently linked Guides topics and five separately linked feature archives. Pass only an exact returned slug to /headlines and keep that section with each snapshot; headlines do not accept paging or cursor inputs. Keep topic Guides distinct from Exclusives, Reviews, Newsletters, Videos, and Sponsored Posts, especially when analyzing independent editorial coverage. Follow canonical dated story URLs to /article for public paragraph text and canonical author profile URLs to /author for a profile plus recent story cards. The section set reflects current publisher navigation, not the site's much larger historical sitemap. Article extraction omits affiliate disclosures, embeds, and figure captions; it does not fetch podcast audio or member-only material. A paywalled flag means returned paragraphs may be partial. Author lookup is a profile URL route, not arbitrary byline search, and recent articles are not a paginated career archive. Use the endpoint cards for this integration's accepted inputs.

1. Step 1

   Refresh the accepted Guides and feature feeds

   A live /ninetofivegoogle/sections response on 2026-10-14 contained 63 feed records; refresh it before scheduling because publisher feeds change. Use /news for broad recent RSS discovery and /sections to refresh the 63 accepted feeds: 58 currently linked Guides topics and five separately linked feature archives. Pass only an exact returned slug to /headlines and keep that section with each snapshot; headlines do not accept paging or cursor inputs. Keep topic Guides distinct from Exclusives, Reviews, Newsletters, Videos, and Sponsored Posts, especially when analyzing independent editorial coverage. Follow canonical dated story URLs to /article for public paragraph text and canonical author profile URLs to /author for a profile plus recent story cards.

2. Step 2

   Keep sponsored posts apart from editorial reporting

   9to5Google's own About page frames its reporting around the Google ecosystem: Search and Assistant, Android and Chrome, and Pixel and Nest devices. Use those product families as downstream labels; they are not API filters. The API master currently documents 63 accepted section feeds: 58 Guides topics plus five separately linked editorial feeds for exclusives, reviews, newsletters, videos, and sponsored posts. Save the exact returned slug with each /headlines snapshot; that route has no page or cursor. Keep the sponsored archive separate from independent editorial reporting. The main /news route is broad RSS discovery (100 entries in the sampled feed), not a complete archive. Article URLs must be canonical dated stories; returned paragraphs exclude affiliate disclosures, embeds, and figure captions, while audio and member-only material are not fetched. The author route takes a canonical profile URL and returns profile details plus recent story cards, not a free-text byline search or paginated lifetime archive.

3. Step 3

   Pass an exact returned slug

   9to5Google's own About page frames its reporting around the Google ecosystem: Search and Assistant, Android and Chrome, and Pixel and Nest devices. Use those product families as downstream labels; they are not API filters. The API master currently documents 63 accepted section feeds: 58 Guides topics plus five separately linked editorial feeds for exclusives, reviews, newsletters, videos, and sponsored posts. Save the exact returned slug with each /headlines snapshot; that route has no page or cursor. Keep the sponsored archive separate from independent editorial reporting. The main /news route is broad RSS discovery (100 entries in the sampled feed), not a complete archive. Article URLs must be canonical dated stories; returned paragraphs exclude affiliate disclosures, embeds, and figure captions, while audio and member-only material are not fetched. The author route takes a canonical profile URL and returns profile details plus recent story cards, not a free-text byline search or paginated lifetime archive. Pass only a value returned by /ninetofivegoogle/sections and accepted by /ninetofivegoogle/headlines; preserve the selected desk with its results.

4. Step 4

   Read article text without affiliate boilerplate

   The section set reflects current publisher navigation, not the site's much larger historical sitemap. Article extraction omits affiliate disclosures, embeds, and figure captions; it does not fetch podcast audio or member-only material. A paywalled flag means returned paragraphs may be partial. Author lookup is a profile URL route, not arbitrary byline search, and recent articles are not a paginated career archive. Keep teaser, truncation, premium, or access fields beside the canonical URL so downstream users can see what the publisher actually returned.

5. Step 5

   Use canonical profile URLs

   Use /news for broad recent RSS discovery and /sections to refresh the 63 accepted feeds: 58 currently linked Guides topics and five separately linked feature archives. Pass only an exact returned slug to /headlines and keep that section with each snapshot; headlines do not accept paging or cursor inputs. Keep topic Guides distinct from Exclusives, Reviews, Newsletters, Videos, and Sponsored Posts, especially when analyzing independent editorial coverage. Follow canonical dated story URLs to /article for public paragraph text and canonical author profile URLs to /author for a profile plus recent story cards. The section set reflects current publisher navigation, not the site's much larger historical sitemap. Article extraction omits affiliate disclosures, embeds, and figure captions; it does not fetch podcast audio or member-only material. A paywalled flag means returned paragraphs may be partial. Author lookup is a profile URL route, not arbitrary byline search, and recent articles are not a paginated career archive.
