Managed execution
How Crawlora handles this platform
Every figure below is read from the live Nation Africa endpoint catalog — 5 endpoints, 9 documented request parameters, and 5 published response schemas — the same catalog Docs and Playground run against.
Documented endpoint coverage
5 documented Nation Africa endpoints, grouped into 5 request families — Article, Author and Headlines, plus 2 more.
Published request surface
9 request parameters are documented across those Nation Africa endpoints, 7 of them required — the full input contract is public before you write any integration code.
Known response shape
5 of the 5 Nation Africa 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
Nation Africa endpoints document their error responses (400, 404 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 Nation Africa 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 Nation Africa
Extract Nation Africa data in 6 steps
Nation Africa is Nation Media Group’s digital platform for its Kenyan and wider East African journalism. A Kenya-only keyword feed misses the regional frame carried by its editorial sections. The article endpoint reads the anonymous page: Premium pieces may expose only opening paragraphs, and the paywalled flag identifies that boundary. Section teaser cards may also identify Premium stories without supplying a publication timestamp, so avoid inventing one from relative age text. On 2026-10-27 the sections route listed 47 slugs; section rows had no timestamps, but the news route returned 21 dated stories from the previous day.
- Step 1
Use the Kenya edition's 47 sections
The sections route lists 47 slugs for the Kenya edition, such as news, politics, counties, football and fact-checks.
- Step 2
Expect relative ages, not timestamps
Section headlines are story teasers from the section page. Subscriber-only stories carry type premium, and because teasers show only a relative age, published_at is omitted there.
- Step 3
Get dated stories from the sitemap feed
The news route reads the public news sitemap and returns headline, publication time and lead image. If the sitemap returns 404 it falls back to another publisher source.
- Step 4
Treat premium articles as partial
For a Premium story paywalled is true and paragraphs holds only the opening paragraph or two the publisher serves anonymous readers; nothing is bypassed. The author route returns name, bio, portrait and the handful of latest stories the profile page lists.
- Step 5
Fill missing fields from other routes
news returned 58 rows with summaries on only 8 and images on 16, and rift-valley returned 21 rows with summaries on 12, none dated. The news route returned 21 stories from 2026-10-26 12:31 UTC to 23:44 with 19 images and no summaries.
- Step 6
Choose regional slugs deliberately
Slugs run from news, politics, world and gender to business, companies and enterprise, plus regional feeds like rift-valley, so keep the slug with each story.
