# PitchBook: Entity News

> Get news articles from the last 30 days about a company, investor, fund or other entity by its ID. Includes inputs, outputs, SDK V2 examples, and Deepline cost.

Get news articles from the last 30 days about a company, investor, fund or other entity by its ID.

> [!NOTE]
>
> Tool ID: `pitchbook_entity_news`

## Run this action

Use the TypeScript SDK for one call. Use `ctx.tools.execute(...)` inside a Play for durable calls, scheduled calls, or CSV processing.

```ts theme={"languages":{"custom":["/languages/deepline-prompt.json"]}}
import { Deepline } from 'deepline';

const deepline = await Deepline.connect();
const result = await deepline.tools.execute(
  'pitchbook_entity_news',
  {
    "pbId": "pb_123"
  },
);

console.log(result.toolResponse.raw);
```

### CLI

```bash theme={"languages":{"custom":["/languages/deepline-prompt.json"]}}
deepline tools execute pitchbook_entity_news --input '{
  "pbId": "pb_123"
}' --json
```

## Example response

The SDK returns this shape at `result.toolResponse.raw`. The example values illustrate the response.

```json theme={"languages":{"custom":["/languages/deepline-prompt.json"]}}
{
  "data": [
    {
      "entityId": "entity_123",
      "title": "VP of Engineering",
      "byline": "example"
    }
  ]
}
```

Use `deepline describe pitchbook_entity_news --json` for the latest machine-readable contract.
