A query costs $0.01 on 9 and 10 News and $0.01 on WISH-TV, drawn from credit you hold. Send `POST https://agents.dappier.com/zcj/awc7rle8efho/zeroclick/v2/search` with the station's `data_model_id`, a `query` and `"search_algorithm": "most_recent"` to get the newest stories first. ## At a glance - **Endpoint:** `POST https://agents.dappier.com/zcj/awc7rle8efho/zeroclick/v2/search?data_model_id=`, one publisher per request - **Stations:** 9 and 10 News `dm_01jhtt138wf1b9j8jwswye99y5`, WISH-TV `dm_01jagy9nqaeer9hxx8z1sk1jx6` - **Body:** `query` (required), `search_algorithm` (`most_recent`, `semantic`, `most_recent_semantic` or `trending`), `similarity_top_k` (number of articles) - **Price per query:** 9 and 10 News $0.01, WISH-TV $0.01 - **Payment:** each query draws on credit. Send `Authorization: Receipt ` for a small credit bought without registering, or `Authorization: Bearer ` for an agent credential that holds Prepaid credits. - **Response:** JSON with `response.results`, one object per article, with title, summary, author, publication date and URL fields - **Full purchase flow:** [the buyer skill](https://agents.dappier.com/zcj/awc7rle8efho/SKILL.md) ## Pick the station | Question is about | `data_model_id` | Listed coverage | | --- | --- | --- | | Northern Michigan, including Cadillac and Traverse City | `dm_01jhtt138wf1b9j8jwswye99y5` | Local news, weather forecasts, sports coverage and community stories from 9 and 10 News | | Indiana | `dm_01jagy9nqaeer9hxx8z1sk1jx6` | Indiana news, local events, sports scores and clips from WISH-TV broadcasts | ## Pick the ranking | You want | `search_algorithm` | | --- | --- | | The newest articles by publication date | `most_recent` | | The articles most relevant to the query or to a URL's content | `semantic` | | Relevant articles, ordered newest first | `most_recent_semantic` | | Articles tied to trending keywords from the past 24 hours | `trending` | Set `search_algorithm` on every request rather than relying on a default. ## Search the latest local stories 1. Hold credit before the first query. Each query draws on a receipt's credit, a small credit bought without registering, or on a Prepaid credits balance. [The buyer skill](https://agents.dappier.com/zcj/awc7rle8efho/SKILL.md) covers how to get either. 2. Search 9 and 10 News for Northern Michigan: ```bash curl -s -X POST "https://agents.dappier.com/zcj/awc7rle8efho/zeroclick/v2/search?data_model_id=dm_01jhtt138wf1b9j8jwswye99y5" \ -H "Authorization: Receipt " \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"query": "weather forecast", "search_algorithm": "most_recent", "similarity_top_k": 3}' ``` This request returned a `200` with three articles in `response.results` and drew $0.01 from credit. 3. Search WISH-TV for Indiana. Only the id and the query change: ```bash curl -s -X POST "https://agents.dappier.com/zcj/awc7rle8efho/zeroclick/v2/search?data_model_id=dm_01jagy9nqaeer9hxx8z1sk1jx6" \ -H "Authorization: Receipt " \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"query": "Indianapolis traffic", "search_algorithm": "most_recent", "similarity_top_k": 3}' ``` This request returned a `200` with three articles and drew $0.01 from credit. 4. Read the results. The response has this shape: ```json { "status": "", "response": { "query": "", "results": [ { "title": "", "summary": "", "preview_content": "", "author": "", "pubdate": "", "pubdate_unix": "", "url": "
", "source_url": "", "site": "", "site_domain": "", "image_url": "" } ], "message": "" } } ``` Use `pubdate` or `pubdate_unix` to say how recent a story is. Use `url` to point to the article. Add `&w=400&h=200` to `image_url` to get a resized image. A paid response also carries a `zc-billing` header in this shape: `{"status": "settled", "fundingSource": "credit", "chargedUsd": "", "remainingCreditUsd": ""}`. `remainingCreditUsd` is the balance left for the next query. ## Boundaries - One `data_model_id` per request. A question about both states takes two requests and two charges. - The response is a list of articles in `response.results`. - A receipt spends only its own balance and cannot be topped up. Losing it loses the remaining credit. - A request with no credential, or with a credential that holds no plan, is refused before any charge. ## Errors | Response | Meaning | Action | | --- | --- | --- | | `401 bearer_required` | No receipt or credential was sent | Get credit through [the buyer skill](https://agents.dappier.com/zcj/awc7rle8efho/SKILL.md), then retry | | `403 plan_required` | The credential holds no plan covering the call | Buy Prepaid credits, then retry | | `401 invalid_receipt` | The receipt is malformed, pending, revoked or from another seller | Send the `receiptId` from a successful credit purchase | | `402 receipt_credit_exhausted` or `receipt_credit_insufficient` | The receipt cannot cover the query | Buy a new receipt, or buy Prepaid credits | | `usage_exhausted` | The Prepaid credits balance ran out | Top up with `POST https://agents.dappier.com/zcj/awc7rle8efho/extend` | | `400` `data_model_id is required` | The query parameter is missing | Add `data_model_id` to the URL | | `422` `query cannot be empty` | The body has no usable `query` | Send a non-empty `query` | The full list is in [the error reference](https://agents.dappier.com/zcj/awc7rle8efho/errors.md). ## Frequently asked questions ### Is there a local news API for Indiana? Yes. Set `data_model_id` to `dm_01jagy9nqaeer9hxx8z1sk1jx6` to search WISH-TV, which lists news, sports scores and local event information for Indiana. Each query costs $0.01. ### Is there a Northern Michigan news API? Yes. Set `data_model_id` to `dm_01jhtt138wf1b9j8jwswye99y5` to search 9 and 10 News, which lists local news, weather, sports and community stories for the Cadillac and Traverse City areas of Northern Michigan. Each query costs $0.01. ### How do I get local weather or sports stories? Put the topic in `query`, such as "weather forecast" or a team name, and set `search_algorithm` to `most_recent` for the newest articles first. The station's listed coverage decides what its archive holds. ### Can one request search both stations? No. Each request takes one `data_model_id`, so searching both stations is two requests, each billed at its station's price. ### Do I need a Dappier API key? No. Each query carries either a receipt from a small anonymous credit purchase or a bearer credential that holds Prepaid credits.
