The original Google News API was deprecated a long time ago, so it’s no longer available to fetch data directly from Google News. However, you can still get the same kind of real-time and trending news data using alternatives like NewsData.io — which works as a modern and easy-to-use replacement for the old Google News API.

With NewsData.io, you can fetch news articles in JSON format from thousands of trusted global sources — including Google News — and filter them by keywords, categories, countries, or languages.

Here’s how you can get started:

1. Go to https://newsdata.io/ and sign up for a free API key.

2. Visit the documentation: https://newsdata.io/documentation.

3. Use a simple API request like this:

https://newsdata.io/api/1/news?apikey=YOUR_API_KEY&q=technology&language=en

This will return the latest technology news articles in JSON format.

👉 Why use NewsData.io instead of Google News API?

• Free plan available with daily request limits

• Real-time and historical news access

• Easy integration with Python, PHP, Node.js, etc.

• Supports multiple filters and languages

• Reliable coverage from global publishers

So even though Google’s own News API is gone, you can still get the same (and even better) data experience using NewsData.io’s Google News API alternative.
