This workflow pulls news articles from NewsAPI, Mediastack, and CurrentsAPI on a scheduled basis.

Each provider’s results are normalized into a consistent schema, then written into your database (NocoDB by default). Use case: automated aggregation of categorized news for content pipelines, research agents, or editorial queues.

What You Must Update Before Running

1. API Keys Replace all placeholder keys:

• call newsapi.org - Top Headlines → update API_KEY in URL
• call newsapi.org - categories → update API_KEY
• call mediastack → update "ACCESS_KEY" in JSON
• call currentsapi → update "API_KEY" param

1. Database Connection Workflow uses NocoDB to store results.

You must:

• Update the NocoDB API Token credential to your own
• Ensure your table includes the fields used in the create operations (source_category, title, summary, author, sources, content, images, publisher_date, etc.)

If you prefer Google Sheets, Airtable, or another DB:

• Replace each NocoDB node with your equivalent “create row” operation
• The Set nodes already provide all normalized fields you need

1. Scheduling All schedulers are disabled by default. Enable the following so the workflow runs automatically:

• NewsAPI – Top Headlines
• NewsAPI – Categories
• Mediastack
• CurrentsAPI

You may change the run times, but all four must be scheduled for the workflow to function as designed.

What You Can Configure

1. Categories Defined in:

• newsapi.org categories
• mediastack categories

Edit these arrays to pull only the categories you care about or to match your API plan limits.

1. Article Limits Adjust article_limit in:

• newsapi.org categories
• mediastack categories
• currentsapi config
