Managed execution
Every figure below is read from the live Deadline endpoint catalog — 5 endpoints, 9 documented request parameters, and 5 published response schemas — the same catalog Docs and Playground run against.
5 documented Deadline endpoints, grouped into 5 request families — Article, Author and Headlines, plus 2 more.
9 request parameters are documented across those Deadline endpoints, 8 of them required — the full input contract is public before you write any integration code.
5 of the 5 Deadline endpoints ship a recorded example response, and 5 carry a documented response schema — you can code against the real JSON before the first request.
Deadline 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.
5 hosted MCP tools back the Deadline 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 Deadline
Crawlora's Deadline endpoints read deadline.com and return JSON for articles, section headlines, authors, and the cross-section front page. Deadline runs 49 sections — far more granular than a typical trade outlet, down to Primetime Pilot Panic, Red Carpet Premieres, and Cancellations and Renewals — split across two RSS namespaces (deadline.com/category/<slug>/feed/ and deadline.com/v/<slug>/feed/ for verticals like TV, Film, and Awards). Headline bylines are raw WordPress usernames ("Tomt"), while the article endpoint resolves the same byline to a real name ("Tom Tapp") — fetch the article for a display-ready author name rather than the headlines feed's slug.
/deadline/sections returns all 49 sections, split across two RSS namespaces — most under deadline.com/category/<slug>/feed/, verticals like tv, film, business, and awards under deadline.com/v/<slug>/feed/.
/deadline/headlines takes a section slug and returns title, url, summary, image_url, published_at, and author — but that author field is a raw WordPress username slug (e.g. "Tomt") rather than a display name.
/deadline/article returns authors, image_url, a paragraphs array, section, published_at, and updated_at. The same byline that showed as "Tomt" on the headlines feed resolves here as "Tom Tapp" — the article endpoint, not headlines, is the source for a display-ready author name.
/deadline/news (no parameters) returns Deadline's front page mixed across sections — a single 2026-09-24 pull spanned TV, film, business, and awards coverage in one feed.
/deadline/author takes https://deadline.com/author/<slug>. Article authors[] are plain names, and the URL built from Matt Grobar (/author/matt-grobar, with and without a trailing slash) answered 404 Deadline author not found on 2026-10-30. Deadline's 48 section slugs (acquisitions, agencies, casting, festivals and more) each returned 12 stories with bylines, summaries and images, and the cross-section news route returned 12 as well.

Deadline's 49 sections reflect its Hollywood-trade beat structure — down to niches like Primetime Pilot Panic, Red Carpet Premieres, and Cancellations and Renewals, rather than broad categories like "TV" or "Film" alone.
The headlines feed's author field is a raw WordPress username slug (e.g. "Tomt"); the article endpoint resolves that same byline to the reporter's real display name ("Tom Tapp").
Yes, via published_at and updated_at, though in practice the gap between them is often just seconds — Deadline's CMS timestamps both fields at essentially the same moment for most stories.
Yes, /deadline/news returns the mixed front-page feed spanning sections like TV, film, business, and awards without querying each section individually.
