- **Tool id:** `predictleads-companies-news-events`
- **Provider:** [PredictLeads](/providers/predictleads)
- **Job:** [Get recent news mentioning a company](/reference/jobs/company-news) (`company.news`)

## Inputs

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `categories` | array | no | One or more valid categories as a comma-separated string (e.g. `param=val1,val2`) or as array parameters (e.g. `param[]=val1&param[]=val2`). |
| `found_at_from` | string | no | Only return `NewsEvents` found after given date (ISO 8601). Example: "2024-09-25" |
| `found_at_until` | string | no | Only return `NewsEvents` found before given date (ISO 8601). Example: "2024-09-25" |
| `limit` | integer | no | Limit the number of shown items per page. |
| `location` | string | no | The response will include only results in the given country name or state name/abbreviation. Example: "United States" |
| `page` | integer | no | Page number of shown items. **NOTE**: If the parameter is not provided, the meta property `count` will be omitted from response for performance reasons. |
| `company_id_or_domain` | string | yes | Company's ID or domain. |

## Output

Shape of the run's `result`, checked against 2 real answers:

```txt
{ data: { id, type, attributes: { summary, category, found_at, location, planning, confidence }, relationships: { company1: { ... }, company2: { ... }, most_relevant_source: { ... } } }[], meta: { message_type, record_state, schema_version }, included: { id, type, attributes: { domain, company_name } }[] }
```

## Run it

Every call needs your API token in `LOOOT_TOKEN`; [Sign in](/get-started/sign-in#use-the-token-in-scripts-and-agents) shows how to get one. Each run also needs a new idempotency key, so a retry never pays twice. With `wait: 30` the answer comes back inline when the run ends within 30 seconds. Otherwise you get the running run back: poll `GET /v1/runs/<runId>`.
