Composio News Search

The newssearch class performs a news-specific search using the composio news search api. this class extends the functionality of the base action class to specifically target news articles related to the given query. by utilizing the google news search engine through the composio news search api, it fetches the most relevant news articles based on the input query. the `newssearch` class is particularly useful for applications that need to retrieve and display the latest news articles about a specific topic. it leverages the powerful search capabilities of google's news search engine, ensuring that the returned results are current and relevant.

Why this helps

Open-ended news browsing can absorb attention without producing a useful summary for the question at hand.

  • Request news only when it is useful to your work.
  • Keep the topic and roundup in a private conversation.
  • Avoid unstructured browsing through a broad news feed.

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Composio search to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to set it up conversationally.
  • 3Write one instruction asking Notis to search recent news when you DM a named industry topic and reply with a brief roundup and links.
  • 4Select Direct Message Received and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test by asking for a real update on a specific industry topic.
