Stale content on topstories. #54

Closed j-e-d closed 4 years ago

j-e-d commented 4 years ago

It looks like https://api.nytimes.com/svc/topstories/v2/home.json is returning old content. The most recent article there is two days old (2020/01/08). Did you change the way to use the API? The site https://developer.nytimes.com is down so I can't check if changes not documented here where added.

Thanks.

Thanks for reporting the issue. We are working on a fix, it could take a few days. In the meantime, you can use the RSS feeds to get the latest articles on the home page (and other sections). No API key is required.

There are docs for the RSS feed on the developer portal.

When I try to access the developer portal I receive a web page with the following message:

"The site you requested doesn't exist."

Can you send a screenshot and what developer.nytimes.com resolves to on your machine (using dig or nslookup)? I also emailed you, if that is easier.

  $ dig developer.nytimes.com
  developer.nytimes.com. 288 IN CNAME nyt-portal.apigee.net.
  nyt-portal.apigee.net. 88 IN CNAME agea1rt001-0-routers.dn.apigee.net.
  agea1rt001-0-routers.dn.apigee.net. 60 IN A 35.227.123.243

Sorry, it's working. Looks like I had some local issues. When I entered a private window with no adblockers it showed the correct page.

Top Stories API should have current data again now.
