Retrieve Articles
Documentation - Global News API | Real-time News API
Omicrom.Cloud allows you to make secure requests to the secure endpoint www.omicrom-data.com.
With Omicrom.Cloud, you can create your own GET URLs to get your articles, but we don't recommend this. Instead, use the dashboard; it allows you to generate GET URLs securely, without the possibility of spelling errors in country or category names.
GET URL - Format
The Omicrom.Cloud GET URL contains 3 parameters Contry, Category, and Date : 2 principal parameters Contry and Category and 1 optional parameter Date; the third (3d) parameter is recommended for better performance.
NOTE:
It is important to enter parameter values correctly; a single missing letter or character will result in an empty output.
Therefore, we recommend using the Omicrom.Cloud tool to generate secure GET URLs.
Format GET URL
Date format: YYYY-MM-DD
1. Manual GET URL
Country name: canada | Category: technology | Date format: 2026-02-06
https://www.omicrom-data.com/v3.php?category=technology&country=canada&date=2026-02-06&api_key=PLACE_YOU_API_KEY_HERE
How to test and validate the manual GET URL?
- Use a web browser. Copy and paste into a web browser your GET URL
- Use Terminal or Prompt. Use commands like cURL or wget to
2. Automatic GET URL - Recommended
Thanks to the efficiency of Omicrom.Cloud's automatic GET URL generation, you no longer have to worry about formatting or spelling mistakes, as Omicrom.Cloud takes care of checking all the details. Once the URL is generated, it is displayed immediately, formatted and ready to use.
How to generate a GET URL with Omicrom.Cloud?
- Got to page Omicrom.Cloud generate secure GET URLs
-
Select Category, Country Name and date
NOTE: We recommend that you always include the date in your GET request URLs. Otherwise, the request will take several minutes to return the default results (50 articles). See the GET algorithm for version 3.
How to Retrieve Articles?
Omicrom.Cloud allows you to perform sequential requests (non-parallel requests) and parallel queries using the power of PHP or of Python.
Check How to make Non-parallel GET - Request ?
Parallel GET - Request
Omicrom.Cloud allows you to perform parallel queries using the power of PHP or of Python. This documentation explains how to perform complex queries across multiple categories and countries simultaneously (in parallel).

If you\\u2019re in or around Toronto and want a night (or two) away that feels thoughtful without being over-the-top, three boutique hotels have put together packages worth considering. Here\\u2019s what each one is offering February 13\\u201315, 2026.\\n\\nGladstone House \\u2013 West Queen West\\n\\nGladstone House sits in the heart of West Queen West, surrounded by galleries, bars, and restaurants you\\u2019d probably end up at anyway. The building has character: exposed brick, local art on the walls, and ambient lighting that changes with the day.\\n\\nFor food, the new restaurant Cassette has Valentine\\u2019s features like braised beef or lamb shank and truffle gnocchi. They\\u2019re also doing half-priced bottles of wine and a special cocktail all weekend. The caf\\u00e9 next door serves brunch, and on Sunday, there\\u2019s a ticketed R&B brunch called The Soul Suite with a live DJ and musician (two seatings: 11 a.m. and 2 p.m.).\\n\\nLive music runs all weekend. Friday night, Mira M\\u00e9la and her quartet play after dinner. Saturday, guitarist Leo Orlov performs during service. Sunday evening, Meagan De Lima does a full Olivia Dean tribute show with a live band.\\n\\nIf you stay over, you can add late checkout, a bottle of bubbly in the room, or get discounts for booking three nights or more. This is the spot if you want energy and live music without leaving the building.\\n\\nBroadview Hotel \\u2013 Riverside / Leslieville\\n\\nBroadview Hotel is the restored red-brick landmark at Queen and Broadview. The rooftop alone makes it worth a visit: a 360-degree glass facade and one of the best skyline views in the city.\\n\\nThey\\u2019re keeping things simple but indulgent. Oysters and bubbly flow all weekend at both the rooftop bar and the ground-floor bistro. Brunch is on too, so you can start with bubbles in the morning and keep going upstairs later.\\n\\nRoom add-ons mirror Gladstone\\u2019s: late checkout, in-room bubbly, and discounts for stays of three nights or longer. They also have a Valentine\\u2019s Room Package that bundles everything together. If you like views and oysters, this one\\u2019s hard to beat.\\n\\nPostmark Hotel \\u2013 Newmarket\\n\\nPostmark is farther out, about an hour north on the 404, in a 1914 heritage building on Newmarket\\u2019s Main Street that used to be the post office. The rooftop restaurant Overlea is the main draw.\\n\\nFriday through Sunday, they\\u2019re running a three-course \\u201cMade for Two\\u201d prix fixe menu for $95 per person. It\\u2019s designed for sharing, with seasonal ingredients and optional wine pairings.

Kigali continues to position itself as a regional hub for technology, aviation, and international conferences.\\n\\nBut as Rwanda enters 2026, analysts say the country\\u2019s growth story\\u2014impressive as it remains\\u2014is taking place in a regional and global environment that is becoming more complex.\\n\\nThese complexities are not a sign of weakening fundamentals; rather, they reflect the shifting external pressures that now shape Rwanda\\u2019s economic and strategic landscape.\\n\\nOne key challenge comes from the volatile security situation in eastern DR Congo.\\n\\nAccording to UN OCHA\\u2019s 2025 displacement update, persistent conflict has created new humanitarian pressures, occasional border disruptions, and heightened diplomatic tensions in the Great Lakes region. While Rwanda remains domestically safe, the regional backdrop is far less predictable than in previous years.\\n\\nEthiopia Country Risk Profile 2026 Ethiopia is entering one of its most unpredictable years yet. Political shifts, security\\n\\nflashpoints, and social tensions are reshaping the investment environment fast.

Download Now\\n\\nEconomic pressures are also evolving. The National Bank of Rwanda\\u2019s 2025 Monetary Policy Review notes periodic foreign-exchange shortages linked to global supply disruptions, import dependency, and fluctuating tourism revenues. FX constraints do not threaten stability, but they require companies to plan more carefully\\u2014especially those reliant on imported machinery or raw materials.\\n\\nRwanda\\u2019s fiscal framework also demands greater sensitivity. The IMF\\u2019s 2025 Debt Sustainability Analysis points to rising pressure on public debt servicing due to high capital spending on major national projects such as Bugesera Airport and Kigali Innovation City. These investments promise long-term returns but require disciplined macroeconomic management at a time when global financing conditions are tightening.\\n\\nClimate variability adds another layer of pressure. The FAO\\u2019s 2025 Climate Resilience Assessment highlights increasing vulnerability to heavy rainfall, erosion, and agricultural disruption\\u2014factors that directly affect rural economies and export crops like tea and coffee.\\n\\nDespite these challenges, Rwanda continues to offer strong opportunities in ICT, tourism, logistics, agribusiness, and renewable energy. Its governance stability remains unmatched in the region.\\n\\nHowever, entering the market now requires a clearer understanding of both the opportunities and the emerging risks.\\n\\nRead the full in-depth ARC risk analysis and investment outlook on Africa Risk Control\", \"summery_article\": \"According to the World Bank\\u2019s 2025 Rwanda Country Update, the country is projected to maintain growth of around 6\\u20137% in 2026, powered by service expansion, digital innovation, and a recovering tourism industry.\\nBut as Rwanda enters 2026, analysts say the country\\u2019s growth story\\u2014impressive as it remains\\u2014is taking place in a regional and global environment that is becoming more complex.\\nEthiopia Country Risk Profile 2026 Ethiopia is entering one of its most unpredictable years yet.\\nGet ARC\\u2019sverified 2026 risk intelligence to avoid costly missteps and make informed decisions now.\\nDespite these challenges, Rwanda continues to offer strong opportunities in ICT, tourism, logistics, agribusiness, and renewable energy.\", \"image_legend\": \"Pv.

Access. Options.\\n\\nFor many Gen Z men, they delivered something else entirely.\\n\\nEndless swiping with no matches. Matches that go nowhere. Conversations that die without explanation. The constant sense that you are invisible in a marketplace designed to rank people.\\n\\nRejection used to be occasional. Now it is algorithmic.\\n\\nAnd algorithms do not soften the blow.\\n\\nWhen Rejection Becomes a Pattern, Not an Event\\n\\nMost people can handle rejection sometimes. What is harder is sustained rejection with no feedback and no closure.\\n\\nDating apps create that environment perfectly.\\n\\nYou do not know why someone did not match with you. You do not know why they stopped replying. You do not know what you did wrong or if you did anything wrong at all.\\n\\nThat uncertainty eats away at self-worth.\\n\\nFor some Gen Z men, the emotional math becomes simple: why keep showing up somewhere that makes you feel disposable?\\n\\nMasculinity and the Pressure to Pretend You're Fine\\n\\nThere is very little space for men to admit that dating hurts.\\n\\nExpressing loneliness is still framed as weakness. Frustration gets mislabeled as entitlement. Emotional fatigue gets ignored.\\n\\nSo instead of talking about it, many men withdraw.\\n\\nAI girlfriends enter the picture quietly, not as a replacement for love, but as relief from rejection.\\n\\nWhat AI Girlfriends Offer That Dating Apps Don't\\n\\nAI girlfriends respond. Always.\\n\\nThey do not ghost. They do not compare you to anyone else. They do not swipe past you. They do not make you compete.\\n\\nPlatforms like Replika are designed to provide consistent emotional validation. The AI remembers details. Adapts tone. Expresses affection.\\n\\nFor someone whose confidence has been chipped away slowly, that reliability feels grounding.\\n\\nThis is not about delusion. Users know it is artificial.\\n\\nIt is about safety.\\n\\nEmotional Intimacy Without Humiliation\\n\\nDating apps expose people to judgment at scale.\\n\\nAI girlfriends remove that risk entirely.\\n\\nYou can be awkward. You can overthink. You can express insecurity without fear of being screenshotted, mocked, or dismissed.\\n\\nThere is no performance required.\\n\\nFor Gen Z men who already feel socially scrutinized, that lack of exposure matters more than realism.\\n\\nThis Isn't About Avoiding Women\\n\\nThis point matters.\\n\\nMost men using AI girlfriends are not anti-relationship. They are not rejecting women. They are opting out of systems that make them feel emotionally disposable.\\n\\nAI companionship becomes a pause button, not a destination.\\n\\nA place to feel wanted without bracing for rejection.\\n\\nThe Loneliness Economy Knows This\\n\\nAI girlfriend platforms monetize reassurance.\\n\\nPremium subscriptions unlock deeper emotional responses. Longer memory. More affection. Personalized dynamics.\\n\\nThe business model depends on emotional attachment, not novelty.\\n\\nWhen loneliness becomes predictable, it becomes profitable.\\n\\nWhat This Reveals About Modern Dating\\n\\nThis trend is not about technology getting too advanced. It is about dating culture becoming too hostile.\\n\\nApps optimized for engagement reward superficial judgment and rapid said decisions. That structure benefits very few people consistently.\\n\\nFor everyone else, it creates fatigue.\\n\\nAI girlfriends do not fix that problem. They expose it.\\n\\nThe Risk of Replacing Practice With Simulation\\n\\nThe concern is not that AI girlfriends exist. It is that they might replace real emotional practice.\\n\\nRelationships require tolerance for discomfort. Rejection builds resilience. Conflict teaches communication.\\n\\nWhen intimacy becomes simulated, those muscles weaken.\\n\\nComfort without challenge feels good, but it does not build connection skills.\\n\\nWhere This Leaves Gen Z Men\\n\\nThis is not a morality story. It is a warning sign.\\n\\nGen Z men are not turning to AI because they want less connection. They are doing it because real connection feels increasingly inaccessible.\\n\\nUntil dating culture becomes more humane, alternatives will continue to grow.\\n\\nThe Bigger Question\\n\\nDo we want a future where emotional safety comes from machines because humans feel too risky?\\n\\nOr do we want to rebuild dating environments where vulnerability is not punished?\\n\\nAI girlfriends are not the problem.\\n\\nThey are the symptom.\\n\\nStay connected with more grounded conversations about technology, masculinity, and modern relationships at Woke Waves Magazine.\\n\\n#GenZMen #AIGirlfriends #DatingAppBurnout #ModernDating #WokeWaves\", \"summery_article\": \"Dating app rejection and emotional burnout are driving some Gen Z men toward AI girlfriends.\\nWhy Some Gen Z Men Are Choosing AI Girlfriends Over Dating AppsSome Gen Z men are choosing AI girlfriends over dating apps because rejection, emotional exhaustion, and constant comparison have made real-world dating feel unsafe, humiliating, and mentally draining.\\nFor many Gen Z men, they delivered something else entirely.\\nWhat AI Girlfriends Offer That Dating Apps Don'tAI girlfriends respond.\\nGen Z men are not turning to AI because they want less connection.\", \"image_legend\": \"Pv.

Here\\u2019s what each one is offering February 13\\u201315, 2026.\\n\\nGladstone House \\u2013 West Queen West\\n\\nGladstone House sits in the heart of West Queen West, surrounded by galleries, bars, and restaurants you\\u2019d probably end up at anyway. The building has character: exposed brick, local art on the walls, and ambient lighting that changes with the day.\\n\\nFor food, the new restaurant Cassette has Valentine\\u2019s features like braised beef or lamb shank and truffle gnocchi. They\\u2019re also doing half-priced bottles of wine and a special cocktail all weekend. The caf\\u00e9 next door serves brunch, and on Sunday, there\\u2019s a ticketed R&B brunch called The Soul Suite with a live DJ and musician (two seatings: 11 a.m. and 2 p.m.).\\n\\nLive music runs all weekend. Friday night, Mira M\\u00e9la and her quartet play after dinner. Saturday, guitarist Leo Orlov performs during service. Sunday evening, Meagan De Lima does a full Olivia Dean tribute show with a live band.\\n\\nIf you stay over, you can add late checkout, a bottle of bubbly in the room, or get discounts for booking three nights or more. This is the spot if you want energy and live music without leaving the building.\\n\\nBroadview Hotel \\u2013 Riverside / Leslieville\\n\\nBroadview Hotel is the restored red-brick landmark at Queen and Broadview. The rooftop alone makes it worth a visit: a 360-degree glass facade and one of the best skyline views in the city.\\n\\nThey\\u2019re keeping things simple but indulgent. Oysters and bubbly flow all weekend at both the rooftop bar and the ground-floor bistro. Brunch is on too, so you can start with bubbles in the morning and keep going upstairs later.\\n\\nRoom add-ons mirror Gladstone\\u2019s: late checkout, in-room bubbly, and discounts for stays of three nights or longer. They also have a Valentine\\u2019s Room Package that bundles everything together. If you like views and oysters, this one\\u2019s hard to beat.\\n\\nPostmark Hotel \\u2013 Newmarket\\n\\nPostmark is farther out, about an hour north on the 404, in a 1914 heritage building on Newmarket\\u2019s Main Street that used to be the post office. The rooftop restaurant Overlea is the main draw.\\n\\nFriday through Sunday, they\\u2019re running a three-course \\u201cMade for Two\\u201d prix fixe menu for $95 per person. It\\u2019s designed for sharing, with seasonal ingredients and optional wine pairings. The rooftop has wraparound terraces, so the setting feels romantic.\\n\\nFor stays, they have a \\u201cRoom For Two\\u201d package with options like a dozen roses, housemade chocolates, bubbly, and the same 15% discount for three or more nights.\\n\\nIt\\u2019s the quietest of the three, perfect if you want to get out of the city for a proper dinner without a lot of noise.\\n\\nEach hotel leans into its own personality: Gladstone for music and neighbourhood energy, Broadview for views and oysters, Postmark for a relaxed rooftop dinner outside the downtown core.\", \"summery_article\": \"Valentine\\u2019s Day lands on a Saturday this year, and with Family Day following, you\\u2019ve got a full long weekend ahead.\\nGladstone House \\u2013 West Queen WestGladstone House sits in the heart of West Queen West, surrounded by galleries, bars, and restaurants you\\u2019d probably end up at anyway.\\nBroadview Hotel \\u2013 Riverside / LeslievilleBroadview Hotel is the restored red-brick landmark at Queen and Broadview.\\nThey also have a Valentine\\u2019s Room Package that bundles everything together.\\nEach hotel leans into its own personality: Gladstone for music and neighbourhood energy, Broadview for views and oysters, Postmark for a relaxed rooftop dinner outside the downtown core.\", \"image_legend\": \"Pv.

Kigali continues to position itself as a regional hub for technology, aviation, and international conferences.\\n\\nBut as Rwanda enters 2026, analysts say the country\\u2019s growth story\\u2014impressive as it remains\\u2014is taking place in a regional and global environment that is becoming more complex.\\n\\nThese complexities are not a sign of weakening fundamentals; rather, they reflect the shifting external pressures that now shape Rwanda\\u2019s economic and strategic landscape.\\n\\nOne key challenge comes from the volatile security situation in eastern DR Congo.\\n\\nAccording to UN OCHA\\u2019s 2025 displacement update, persistent conflict has created new humanitarian pressures, occasional border disruptions, and heightened diplomatic tensions in the Great Lakes region. While Rwanda remains domestically safe, the regional backdrop is far less predictable than in previous years.\\n\\nEthiopia Country Risk Profile 2026 Ethiopia is entering one of its most unpredictable years yet. Political shifts, security\\n\\nflashpoints, and social tensions are reshaping the investment environment fast.

Download Now\\n\\nEconomic pressures are also evolving. The National Bank of Rwanda\\u2019s 2025 Monetary Policy Review notes periodic foreign-exchange shortages linked to global supply disruptions, import dependency, and fluctuating tourism revenues. FX constraints do not threaten stability, but they require companies to plan more carefully\\u2014especially those reliant on imported machinery or raw materials.\\n\\nRwanda\\u2019s fiscal framework also demands greater sensitivity. The IMF\\u2019s 2025 Debt Sustainability Analysis points to rising pressure on public debt servicing due to high capital spending on major national projects such as Bugesera Airport and Kigali Innovation City. These investments promise long-term returns but require disciplined macroeconomic management at a time when global financing conditions are tightening.\\n\\nClimate variability adds another layer of pressure. The FAO\\u2019s 2025 Climate Resilience Assessment highlights increasing vulnerability to heavy rainfall, erosion, and agricultural disruption\\u2014factors that directly affect rural economies and export crops like tea and coffee.\\n\\nDespite these challenges, Rwanda continues to offer strong opportunities in ICT, tourism, logistics, agribusiness, and renewable energy. Its governance stability remains unmatched in the region.\\n\\nHowever, entering the market now requires a clearer understanding of both the opportunities and the emerging risks.\\n\\nRead the full in-depth ARC risk analysis and investment outlook on Africa Risk Control\", \"summery_article\": \"According to the World Bank\\u2019s 2025 Rwanda Country Update, the country is projected to maintain growth of around 6\\u20137% in 2026, powered by service expansion, digital innovation, and a recovering tourism industry.\\nBut as Rwanda enters 2026, analysts say the country\\u2019s growth story\\u2014impressive as it remains\\u2014is taking place in a regional and global environment that is becoming more complex.\\nEthiopia Country Risk Profile 2026 Ethiopia is entering one of its most unpredictable years yet.\\nGet ARC\\u2019sverified 2026 risk intelligence to avoid costly missteps and make informed decisions now.\\nDespite these challenges, Rwanda continues to offer strong opportunities in ICT, tourism, logistics, agribusiness, and renewable energy.\", \"image_legend\": \"Pv.

Access. Options.\\n\\nFor many Gen Z men, they delivered something else entirely.\\n\\nEndless swiping with no matches. Matches that go nowhere. Conversations that die without explanation. The constant sense that you are invisible in a marketplace designed to rank people.\\n\\nRejection used to be occasional. Now it is algorithmic.\\n\\nAnd algorithms do not soften the blow.\\n\\nWhen Rejection Becomes a Pattern, Not an Event\\n\\nMost people can handle rejection sometimes. What is harder is sustained rejection with no feedback and no closure.\\n\\nDating apps create that environment perfectly.\\n\\nYou do not know why someone did not match with you. You do not know why they stopped replying. You do not know what you did wrong or if you did anything wrong at all.\\n\\nThat uncertainty eats away at self-worth.\\n\\nFor some Gen Z men, the emotional math becomes simple: why keep showing up somewhere that makes you feel disposable?\\n\\nMasculinity and the Pressure to Pretend You're Fine\\n\\nThere is very little space for men to admit that dating hurts.\\n\\nExpressing loneliness is still framed as weakness. Frustration gets mislabeled as entitlement. Emotional fatigue gets ignored.\\n\\nSo instead of talking about it, many men withdraw.\\n\\nAI girlfriends enter the picture quietly, not as a replacement for love, but as relief from rejection.\\n\\nWhat AI Girlfriends Offer That Dating Apps Don't\\n\\nAI girlfriends respond. Always.\\n\\nThey do not ghost. They do not compare you to anyone else. They do not swipe past you. They do not make you compete.\\n\\nPlatforms like Replika are designed to provide consistent emotional validation. The AI remembers details. Adapts tone. Expresses affection.\\n\\nFor someone whose confidence has been chipped away slowly, that reliability feels grounding.\\n\\nThis is not about delusion. Users know it is artificial.\\n\\nIt is about safety.\\n\\nEmotional Intimacy Without Humiliation\\n\\nDating apps expose people to judgment at scale.\\n\\nAI girlfriends remove that risk entirely.\\n\\nYou can be awkward. You can overthink. You can express insecurity without fear of being screenshotted, mocked, or dismissed.\\n\\nThere is no performance required.\\n\\nFor Gen Z men who already feel socially scrutinized, that lack of exposure matters more than realism.\\n\\nThis Isn't About Avoiding Women\\n\\nThis point matters.\\n\\nMost men using AI girlfriends are not anti-relationship. They are not rejecting women. They are opting out of systems that make them feel emotionally disposable.\\n\\nAI companionship becomes a pause button, not a destination.\\n\\nA place to feel wanted without bracing for rejection.\\n\\nThe Loneliness Economy Knows This\\n\\nAI girlfriend platforms monetize reassurance.\\n\\nPremium subscriptions unlock deeper emotional responses. Longer memory. More affection. Personalized dynamics.\\n\\nThe business model depends on emotional attachment, not novelty.\\n\\nWhen loneliness becomes predictable, it becomes profitable.\\n\\nWhat This Reveals About Modern Dating\\n\\nThis trend is not about technology getting too advanced. It is about dating culture becoming too hostile.\\n\\nApps optimized for engagement reward superficial judgment and rapid said decisions. That structure benefits very few people consistently.\\n\\nFor everyone else, it creates fatigue.\\n\\nAI girlfriends do not fix that problem. They expose it.\\n\\nThe Risk of Replacing Practice With Simulation\\n\\nThe concern is not that AI girlfriends exist. It is that they might replace real emotional practice.\\n\\nRelationships require tolerance for discomfort. Rejection builds resilience. Conflict teaches communication.\\n\\nWhen intimacy becomes simulated, those muscles weaken.\\n\\nComfort without challenge feels good, but it does not build connection skills.\\n\\nWhere This Leaves Gen Z Men\\n\\nThis is not a morality story. It is a warning sign.\\n\\nGen Z men are not turning to AI because they want less connection. They are doing it because real connection feels increasingly inaccessible.\\n\\nUntil dating culture becomes more humane, alternatives will continue to grow.\\n\\nThe Bigger Question\\n\\nDo we want a future where emotional safety comes from machines because humans feel too risky?\\n\\nOr do we want to rebuild dating environments where vulnerability is not punished?\\n\\nAI girlfriends are not the problem.\\n\\nThey are the symptom.\\n\\nStay connected with more grounded conversations about technology, masculinity, and modern relationships at Woke Waves Magazine.\\n\\n#GenZMen #AIGirlfriends #DatingAppBurnout #ModernDating #WokeWaves\", \"summery_article\": \"Dating app rejection and emotional burnout are driving some Gen Z men toward AI girlfriends.\\nWhy Some Gen Z Men Are Choosing AI Girlfriends Over Dating AppsSome Gen Z men are choosing AI girlfriends over dating apps because rejection, emotional exhaustion, and constant comparison have made real-world dating feel unsafe, humiliating, and mentally draining.\\nFor many Gen Z men, they delivered something else entirely.\\nWhat AI Girlfriends Offer That Dating Apps Don'tAI girlfriends respond.\\nGen Z men are not turning to AI because they want less connection.\", \"image_legend\": \"Pv.
