Historical data not working, please fix asap!

Open jrk1 opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

Hello,

I signed up for a regular plan exclusively for historical data. While any call to the API without specifying dates works, once a date is specified, I get the following response: Eample Input: https://api.mediastack.com/v1/news?access_key=XXX&date=2020-01-01,2020-12-31&sources=cnn&lanuage=en&country=en&keywords=tennis (key has been blinded here for security)

Output: "{"pagination":{"limit":25,"offset":0,"count":0,"total":0},"data":[]}"

A few weeks ago i reached the support. The answer:

Our news data is available on a 90-day rolling basis, so anything from last year will not be available.

So they don't have historical... thenewsapi.com is way better. They have historical data.
