I see that the API exists for the old sites https://developers.google.com/sites product but that does not work for the new version of sites. Is there any guidance on what's the best way to programmatically access the content from the newer version of sites?

One idea I had was just downloading the content by issues a GET request but not sure if there's a way to programmatically authenticate for that.

As DownloadPizza said, the Google New Sites API is not available yet. More information:

Is there any ETA for the new Google Sites API?

Also from this thread they have given some interesting information regarding New site here Pull data on New Google Sites solution

As a summery:

The new version of Google Sites does not offer an API at the moment but Google has announced that:

  • Site search (launched September 2017)
  • Limit who can access a published site (launched January 2018)
  • Embed URLs (launched September 2017)
  • Embed Code (launched December 2017)
  • More levels of page nesting (launched October 2017)
  • G Suite domain web address mapping (launched August 2017)
  • Assign domain custom URL (personal Google Sites) (launched August 2018)
  • API capabilities including Google Apps Script integration
  • Something similar to page-level permissions (Google's most recent announcement did not include this)
  • Site update notifications
  • Corporate themes
  • More text formatting options
  • Site Templates
  • Better integration with other G Suite product
  • New page elements, like tables of contents and image carousels
  • Increased size limits
  • Better publishing
  • Revision History
  • Editor comments
  • Richer and more comprehensive search from within a site
  • Google Vault support for content from new Sites

will be available - for more detailed information see Deprecation Timeline - classic Google Sites.
