FAQ
Are newsflashes available in English?
No. Newsflashes are only available in Simplified Chinese (zh, the default) and Traditional Chinese (zh-tw). If you need news in English, use the News endpoint and pass language=en.
Is newsflash_content HTML or plain text?
It can be either, depending on the source. Some newsflashes are plain text, while others contain tags such as <p>, <a> and <img>. Process them consistently before display, e.g., strip the tags and keep only the text.
Why do some newsflashes have no newsflash_picture?
For newsflashes without an image, this field may not be returned, or it may be an empty string. Before reading it, check whether the field exists and whether it is empty.
How do I tell whether a newsflash is new?
The response has no unique ID field. When polling on a schedule, you can deduplicate by newsflash_title plus newsflash_release_time. The data is updated in real time.

What Is a Crypto Newsflash?
A newsflash is a very short, instant news item that usually covers a single matter in one or two paragraphs, such as an exchange announcement, a regulatory development or an industry opinion. Newsflashes suit scenarios where you need to learn about news as soon as it breaks.
Should I Use Newsflashes or News?
Use newsflashes for real-time push notifications and for displaying short news items; use the News endpoint when you need full articles, summaries and cover images, or English content.
How Do I Get All Newsflashes Within a Given Period?
Use start_time and end_time (millisecond timestamps) to limit the release time range, then use page and per_page to fetch page by page until an empty array is returned.
