Yahoo Autos API endpoint
Returns a single Yahoo Autos article's full content: title, description, author, publish/update time, section, image, keywords, original publisher, and body paragraphs. Accepts a canonical autos.yahoo.com article URL, such as one returned by the home or category story streams.
/yahoo-autos/articleQuery parameters:
url (required) -- a canonical autos.yahoo.com/.../articles/....html
URL.Notable response behavior:
provider is the original outlet the story is syndicated from when
applicable, otherwise "Yahoo Autos".paragraphs can be an empty array for an article whose metadata loaded
but whose body content did not render -- this is returned as a normal
200, not an error. A response missing both metadata and body
paragraphs is treated as an upstream error (parser drift or a block),
not a silent empty success.url that isn't an autos.yahoo.com article URL returns 400.| Field | In the sample | Value in the sample |
