Managed execution
How Crawlora handles this platform
Every figure below is read from the live PEOPLE endpoint catalog — 5 endpoints, 8 documented request parameters, and 5 published response schemas — the same catalog Docs and Playground run against.
Documented endpoint coverage
5 documented PEOPLE endpoints, grouped into 5 request families — Article, Author and Headlines, plus 2 more.
Published request surface
8 request parameters are documented across those PEOPLE endpoints, 8 of them required — the full input contract is public before you write any integration code.
Known response shape
5 of the 5 PEOPLE 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
PEOPLE 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 PEOPLE 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 PEOPLE
Extract PEOPLE data in 6 steps
PEOPLE is Dotdash Meredith’s celebrity and human-interest publication. Its coverage stretches from entertainment and royals to health, food, style and personal stories, so a general top-story list cannot stand in for every beat. The publisher’s section navigation offers a better sampling frame. When analyzing a personality or event, preserve the originating desk and byline: a reported interview, a style item and a health feature have different editorial purposes. The 2026-10-27 sections route listed 37 slugs, and section pulls for entertainment and animals returned upstream errors, so retry is part of any job.
- Step 1
Read the section inventory
The sections route returned 37 entries as of 2026-09-24, each with a slug, display name and listing URL. Use a returned slug as the section, for example celebrity or royals.
- Step 2
Know the news route has no filter
The news route returns the current celebrity and entertainment top stories with no section filter. Headline items have a title and URL and may add summary, author, time and image.
- Step 3
Pass a people.com URL
Article calls take a URL such as https://people.com/example-headline-12345678 and return title, description, section, authors, lead image, publication and update times, a paywalled flag and body paragraphs.
- Step 4
Collect staff profiles
The author route returns name, job title, structured intro fields, biography, personal social links and recent articles.
- Step 5
Pick from the celebrity slugs
Slugs include entertainment, celebrity, movies, music, tv and awards-events. Section pulls returned upstream errors on 2026-10-27, so build retries with backoff and keep the slug on each record.
- Step 6
Cross-check with the news route
If a section fails, the news route offers a cross-section view, but it also failed on that pull, so store the error with the retry time.
