I would like to get recent fact checks for using Google's Fact Check Tools. There is a search API here: https://developers.google.com/fact-check/tools/api/reference/rest/v1alpha1/claims.
I want to get the list of recent fact checks with no search query, just like the explorer here: https://toolbox.google.com/factcheck/explorer/search/list:recent;hl=en. The APIs seem to only show query, even though the explorer lets you get recent fact checks. Is there a way to get the recent ones?
This link could give you all the information: https://developers.google.com/fact-check/tools/api/reference/rest/v1alpha1/claims/search
Enter a query and press EXECUTE and you can examine the results by "selecting all" in the little box where show the results.
doesn't work because "Washington Post" is not valid and Google provides no list of valid "reviewPublisherSiteFilter"s.
Leave APIKEY box blank and use NUMBER OF DAYS in "maxAgeDays" and you should get the result you want.
Something like this:
{
"claims": [
{
"text": "“We're going to be doing a health care plan, very strongly, and protect people with preexisting conditions… We have other alternatives to Obamacare that are 50% less expensive and that are actually better.”\n“We have run [Obamacare] so much better than Obama ran it.”\n“At the end of my first term, we're going to have close to 300, maybe over 300 new federal judges, including Court of Appeal, two Supreme Court justices.”\nStock Market is proof that Americans are “doing better than they were doing before the pandemic came.”\n“We want people to come into our country ... but we want them to come in through a legal system.”",
