Google News DecoderInstall

Summary

Decode an encoded Google News URL to retrieve its original destination URL along with metadata extracted from the article page.

Inputs

• Encoded URL (required) — The encoded Google News URL to decode
• Advanced Options — Optional parameters to customize decoding, including HTML attributes for signature and timestamp extraction, locale for the decode request, internal decode endpoint URL, RPC header base array, HTTP headers, and caching options (enable cache and cache TTL in minutes).

Output shape

a single JSON object containing the original decoded URL, article ID, signature, timestamp, and cache metadata

If caching is enabled, results may be returned from cache with a 'cached' flag and cache age. On error, an error message is provided if Continue On Fail is enabled. The operation accepts one encoded URL per execution input and returns one corresponding decoded result per item.

Examples

Example 1: Decode a typical Google News article encoded URL with default headers and caching enabled.

Set 'Encoded URL' to the encoded article link. Optionally adjust Advanced options to customize headers or attributes. The node outputs the decoded URL and metadata as JSON.
