Managed execution
How Crawlora handles this platform
Every figure below is read from the live GMA News endpoint catalog — 4 endpoints, 6 documented request parameters, and 4 published response schemas — the same catalog Docs and Playground run against.
Documented endpoint coverage
4 documented GMA News endpoints, grouped into 4 request families — Article, Headlines and News, plus 1 more.
Published request surface
6 request parameters are documented across those GMA News endpoints, 6 of them required — the full input contract is public before you write any integration code.
Known response shape
4 of the 4 GMA News endpoints ship a recorded example response, and 4 carry a documented response schema — you can code against the real JSON before the first request.
Documented failure modes
GMA News 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
4 hosted MCP tools back the GMA News endpoints, so an agent can call the same routes with the same parameters and the same JSON contract, with no custom glue.

How to scrape GMA News
Extract GMA News data in 6 steps
GMA News is the digital newsroom of a Philippine broadcaster, and its site navigation spans News, Showbiz, 24 Oras, Lifestyle, Sports, Money, Pinoy Abroad, Weather, and Serbisyo Publiko. The four catalog routes are article, headlines, news, and sections; use /sections to discover which of those editorial areas the API currently accepts rather than assuming every site navigation item is exposed. For weather and disaster monitoring, retain the island group or locality because a national headline can summarize sharply different regional conditions. Keep the byline, date, and canonical URL so later bulletins link back to the initial report rather than count as independent confirmation. On 2026-10-27 the sections route listed 44 slugs, nearly all prefixed topstories-, and every feed returned 15 stories.
- Step 1
Choose among 44 section slugs
The sections route lists 44 slugs, from topstories and money to nested ones such as topstories-world, money-economy, sports-basketball, sports-nba, showbiz and lifestyle-travel.
- Step 2
Plan for 15 stories per section
The headlines route returns up to 15 of the newest stories for a section, newest first, each with title, URL, summary, published_at in UTC and image_url.
- Step 3
Use the top-stories feed for the site-wide view
The news route returns fresh top stories from the public RSS feed with title, URL, summary, publish time and thumbnail.
- Step 4
Pass a canonical article URL
Article calls return metadata and body paragraphs from a canonical GMA News Online URL. Articles are free to read and none are paywalled. There is no author route in this integration.
- Step 5
Pick from the topstories- family
Slugs include topstories, topstories-metro, topstories-nation, topstories-opinion, topstories-regions, topstories-specialreports, topstories-ulatfilipino and topstories-world. They describe the same Philippine newsroom cut by topic, so keep the slug with each record.
- Step 6
Plan for a fixed 15-story window
Each pull returned 15 stories with a summary and image but no byline. The topstories feed spanned about ten hours (2026-10-26 16:09 UTC to 2026-10-27 01:51) and the showbiz-showbizabroad feed about a week, so low-volume slugs need far longer polling intervals than the lead feed.
