The news lookup endpoint allows developers to get news and headlines breaking on X.

This endpoint supports app-auth and user-auth authentication for OAuth1 and OAuth2 PKCE.

Getting started

To use the endpoint, you need a bearer token from the Developer Console.

Once you have the bearer token, you can call the news API as shown below:

curl 'https://api.x.com/2/news/1989418137272422538?news.fields=contexts,cluster_posts_results' --header 'Authorization: Bearer XXXXX'

If the request is successful, you should see the JSON response as shown below:
