Hi there,

I would like to receive news for a specific date using the Bing News Search API. As shown in the documentation, there is a parameter "Since" to get messages newer than the specified date and "Sort" to sort by date. Finally, the result set shows the most recent data.

  1. Is there a way to order data in reverse order? To get the oldest first?
  2. In addition to the official documentation, is there any other way to get news for a certain date through the Bing News Search API?

    @Simon Hoffmann You can use sortBy with Date but it returns the most recent to the latest. There is no option to reverse the order from the API, this can be done on client side application after the response is read.

    datePublished is an option for the second question but this returns the result based on when bing discovers the article though.
