Does Football Italia have an official API?
Not a public one. This endpoint is the practical alternative: their articles as structured JSON, with title, lead, publication time, section, byline and a link back to the original.
How do I get their RSS feed?
Most publishers expose one at /rss or /feed, but feeds carry
only the last few dozen items and drop them within hours. This index keeps 9 of
their articles and lets you filter by date, language and section.
How many articles does Football Italia publish per day?
1 on a median day, measured across 3 days.
Can I use this commercially?
The API is free and unauthenticated. What you may do with the content is between you and the publisher: we return metadata, a lead paragraph and a link, not a licence.
