Cómo maneja Crawlora esta plataforma
Cada cifra de abajo se lee directamente del catálogo de endpoints en vivo de The Age — 5 endpoints, 8 parámetros de solicitud documentados y 5 esquemas de respuesta publicados — el mismo catálogo contra el que corren Docs y Playground.
Documented endpoint coverage
5 documented The Age endpoints, grouped into 5 request families — Article, Author and Headlines, plus 2 more.
Published request surface
8 request parameters are documented across those The Age endpoints, 8 of them required — the full input contract is public before you write any integration code.
Known response shape
5 of the 5 The Age endpoints ship a recorded example response, and 5 carry a documented response schema — you can code against the real JSON before the first request.
Documented failure modes
The Age endpoints document their error responses (400, 404, 429 and 503) alongside the success schema, so a block, a rate limit, or a missing record comes back as a typed error rather than silently empty data.
Agent-callable MCP tools
5 hosted MCP tools back the The Age endpoints, so an agent can call the same routes with the same parameters and the same JSON contract, with no custom glue.

/theage/articleGet The Age article content
Returns one The Age article's public metadata and the body paragraphs an anonymous visitor's page request is served, from a canonical article URL. The Age runs a metered subscription paywall; the response reports it with is_accessible_for_free (the page's own declaration), paywalled (the page marks the story as subscriber content), and is_truncated (the page served a shortened preview, or no body at all, instead of the full story). Paywalls are never bypassed and body text is never fabricated. Video-only pages are rejected with a 400.

Cómo hacer scraping de The Age
Extrae datos de The Age en 6 pasos
The Age is Nine Entertainment's Melbourne newspaper, reporting on Victoria and Melbourne alongside national politics, business, investigations, culture, and sport. For Australian policy research, the distinction between a Victorian measure and a federal decision is central. Its regional and topic feeds provide candidate stories, while the article body provides the jurisdiction, institutions, and dates needed for dependable classification. On 2026-10-25 the documented list ran to around a hundred slugs, with nested paths such as politics/victoria, sport/afl and goodfood/recipes. The melbourne-news feed returned 21 items with no published_at at all; dates appear only in the URL (for example ...-20261025-p618ci.html), and its first URL slug described a different story from its headline. A second pull on 2026-10-27 re-checked the 96-slug section list and the cross-section feed.
- Paso 1
Parse the date from the URL
melbourne-news items had no published_at field. Read the eight-digit date before the -p id in the URL (20261025), and cross-check the article page when you need a time.
- Paso 2
Expect state-level paths
/theage/sections includes national/victoria, politics/victoria, politics/federal, business/markets and environment/climate-change. The Melbourne feed also returned items under /national/victoria/, /politics/victoria/ and /lifestyle/.
- Paso 3
Store the headline, not the slug
The weather story's URL began cloud-over-motogp-as-wild-weather-hits-victoria while its headline read Soggy streets, icy winds. Keep the response title and canonical URL together.
- Paso 4
Budget 6,300 characters per article
Pass a canonical public URL to /theage/article and use /theage/author for the named contributor when available. Some feed items lacked an author, so fall back to the article page.
- Paso 5
Ninety-six nested slugs
The Age lists 96 slugs such as melbourne-news, national/victoria, politics/federal, politics/victoria and business/companies. On 2026-10-30 melbourne-news returned 23 headlines with no timestamps and national/victoria 20 from 2026-10-27 to 2026-10-30, none overlapping the 20-story strip. Article samples carry paywalled, is_truncated and keywords fields (32 paragraphs, about 6,300 characters).
- Paso 6
Poll a 20-story strip covering about an hour
The cross-section news route returned 20 stories from 2026-10-27 07:15 UTC to 2026-10-27 08:11 UTC, with bylines on 11 of 20, summaries on 20 of 20 and images on 20 of 20. It is a convenient index of recent stories rather than a complete archive.

Preguntas frecuentes
Scraping de The Age: preguntas frecuentes
Why is published_at missing for The Age headlines?
On 2026-10-25 the melbourne-news items carried none. The URL has a YYYYMMDD stamp, which gives a date but no time.
Can I rely on The Age URL slugs for titles?
No. The first melbourne-news item's URL slug named a MotoGP weather story while the headline was about a cold snap.
Which slugs cover Victoria politics?
politics/victoria and national/victoria both appear, along with politics/federal and the other state paths. Query them separately.
