Managed execution
How Crawlora handles this platform
Every figure below is read from the live Times of Israel 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 Times of Israel endpoints, grouped into 5 request families — Article, Author and Headlines, plus 2 more.
Published request surface
8 request parameters are documented across those Times of Israel endpoints, 8 of them required — the full input contract is public before you write any integration code.
Known response shape
5 of the 5 Times of Israel 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
Times of Israel 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 Times of Israel 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 Times of Israel
Extract Times of Israel data in 6 steps
The Times of Israel is an independent English-language Israel news site founded by David Horovitz. It covers Israeli politics, security, diplomacy, the Middle East, Jewish communities abroad, culture, and opinion. For regional-affairs research, distinguish a development in Israel from a diaspora story or an external diplomatic response. Section context helps, but article text and cited speakers establish the actual event and location. On 2026-10-25 a tech-israel headlines call returned the publisher's 403 status. The documented list is short: israel-and-the-region, israel-inside, jewish-times, real-estate-israel and tech-israel. A pull on 2026-10-27 listed only 5 sections, section pulls returned upstream errors, and the news route returned 218 bare rows.
- Step 1
Handle a 403 as a refusal
A tech-israel request on 2026-10-25 was declined with a 403. Back off, retry later and keep the previous snapshot; a refusal is not an empty section.
- Step 2
Treat the five slugs as feeds
/timesofisrael/sections documents five slugs: israel-and-the-region, israel-inside, jewish-times, real-estate-israel and tech-israel. Use them as the exposed feeds, not as a complete site taxonomy.
- Step 3
Collect liveblog entries as updates
The Times of Israel publishes individual entries at /liveblog_entry/<slug>/ in addition to live-update pages. Collect them as timestamped event updates and keep the parent liveblog and entry URLs linked, along with the section (israel-inside, jewish-times, tech-israel).
- Step 4
Resolve the article and contributor
Pass a canonical public URL to /timesofisrael/article and use /timesofisrael/author for the named contributor when available.
- Step 5
Use the news route for volume
The news route returned 218 rows from 2026-10-25 04:04 UTC to 2026-10-27 03:42 with title, URL and time only. Fetch articles for author and summary.
- Step 6
Retry section pulls
israel-and-the-region and jewish-times returned upstream errors on that pull, so back off and retry.
