Managed execution
How Crawlora handles this platform
Every figure below is read from the live Hindustan Times 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 Hindustan Times endpoints, grouped into 5 request families — Article, Author and Headlines, plus 2 more.
Published request surface
8 request parameters are documented across those Hindustan Times endpoints, 8 of them required — the full input contract is public before you write any integration code.
Known response shape
5 of the 5 Hindustan Times 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
Hindustan Times endpoints document their error responses (400, 403, 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 Hindustan Times 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 Hindustan Times
Extract Hindustan Times data in 6 steps
Hindustan Times spans India News, cities, cricket, education, technology, HT City, explainers, and other consumer verticals. Use the section inventory before targeting a reporting beat. For city reporting, retain the publisher’s city-specific section slug alongside the story URL so local coverage does not get mixed with the national stream. On 2026-10-27 the india-news section returned 100 stories spanning about 23 hours, while the science section returned a single story.
- Step 1
Choose from 24 section slugs
The sections route lists 24 slugs, including india-news, world-news, cricket, business, real-estate, nri, htcity, editorials and editors-pick. Other values are rejected.
- Step 2
Read what each item carries
Headline and top-story items give title, URL, summary, author, publication time and image where the site provides them. The news route reads the Latest News listing and needs no input.
- Step 3
Expect permission errors on partner content
A story Hindustan Times marks subscriber-only, chiefly syndicated Wall Street Journal and The Economist partner content, returns a permission error instead of a body. Treat the error as an access outcome.
- Step 4
Pull the byline page
The author route takes a canonical author URL and returns byline metadata, biography, contact and social links and the first page of recent articles only.
- Step 5
Expect up to 100 rows, but sometimes one
india-news returned 100 stories from 2026-10-26 02:07 UTC to 2026-10-27 01:43, and the news route another 100 over nine hours. The science slug held one story dated 2026-10-25, so a thin slug is not an error.
- Step 6
Plan around missing bylines
None of the sampled rows had an author, but 99 of 100 india-news rows had a summary and all 100 had images. Fetch the article for the byline.

FAQ
Scraping Hindustan Times: common questions
Which Hindustan Times content returns a permission error?
Stories marked subscriber-only, chiefly syndicated Wall Street Journal and The Economist partner content. The article route returns an error instead of a body.
How many Hindustan Times sections can I request?
24 slugs, from india-news and world-news to cricket, real-estate, nri and htcity.
How much author history does the Hindustan Times route return?
Only the first page of recent articles, plus biography and contact or social links.
Why does a Hindustan Times section return one story?
Some slugs are nearly empty. The science section returned one story on 2026-10-27, so check the count before scheduling a recurring pull.
Does Hindustan Times offer its own developer API?
No. HT Media's only documented third-party access is HTDS Content Services, a syndication business that redistributes content from roughly 200 publications to licensed partners, not a self-serve API with public docs, pricing, or signup.
