Business Standard API endpoint
Returns public Business Standard article metadata and body paragraphs from a canonical article URL. A story Business Standard marks premium (subscriber-only) returns a permission error instead of a body.
/businessstandard/articleQuery parameter: url is a canonical HTTPS business-standard.com article URL, e.g. https://www.business-standard.com/<section>/<slug>-<id>_1.html. Returns public metadata and the complete body paragraphs.
Business Standard marks some stories premium (subscriber-only). Requesting one of those returns a 403 permission error instead of a body; every successful response's paragraphs is the story's complete, freely available text. An unknown story returns 404.
