How to use Malay Mail endpoints

Malay Mail is an English-language Malaysian news publisher covering national affairs, business, world news, and local issues. A live /malaymail/sections response on 2026-10-14 contained 11 section records; refresh it before scheduling because publisher feeds change. Use the section route to read supported category slugs, then query matching headlines and retain the publisher's short summary for first-pass filtering. Pass canonical story URLs to the article operation; the available feed is a useful cross-section fallback for monitoring recent coverage. The observed RSS listing contains 50 entries with short teasers, not article bodies. No author endpoint is registered. Validate article response behavior against its route before relying on body fields; do not assume RSS or sitemap reachability proves unrestricted text. Use the endpoint cards for this integration's accepted inputs.

Step 1
Read supported category slugs first
A live /malaymail/sections response on 2026-10-14 contained 11 section records; refresh it before scheduling because publisher feeds change. Use the section route to read supported category slugs, then query matching headlines and retain the publisher's short summary for first-pass filtering. Pass canonical story URLs to the article operation; the available feed is a useful cross-section fallback for monitoring recent coverage.
Step 2
Fetch article bodies only after triage
The news feed is bounded to 50 cards and its descriptions are summaries. Use it to discover canonical links, then call the article route only when the body is needed; no validated author operation exists, so retain byline text from the article response instead.
Step 3
Use short summaries for first-pass filtering
The news feed is bounded to 50 cards and its descriptions are summaries. Use it to discover canonical links, then call the article route only when the body is needed; no validated author operation exists, so retain byline text from the article response instead. Pass only a value returned by /malaymail/sections and accepted by /malaymail/headlines; preserve the selected desk with its results.
Step 4
Check article behavior before relying on body fields
The observed RSS listing contains 50 entries with short teasers, not article bodies. No author endpoint is registered. Validate article response behavior against its route before relying on body fields; do not assume RSS or sitemap reachability proves unrestricted text. Keep teaser, truncation, premium, or access fields beside the canonical URL so downstream users can see what the publisher actually returned.
