Newspapers search API
For libraries who use the Primo APIs (https://developers.exlibrisgroup.com/primo/apis/) for their bento box discovery service, it is not possible to extract results from a Newspaper search using the Primo Rest API when the Newspaper search is enabled. Libraries can only extract Newspaper articles through the API using the resource type “Newspaper articles” without the Newspapers search enabled, which means far less content, and far less relevant content. However, by enabling the Newspapers search, libraries can expose significantly more news-oriented results from the many newspapers search only sources that libraries have access to that will increase relevance. However, if a library is using an API to extract newspaper articles by resource type, then enabling the Newspapers search breaks that function. Please add a Newspapers Search API to the Developer Network so that Newspapers articles can be extracted.

According to a reply from a support case:
To duplicate the Primo UI's 'npsearch', you can add the parameters &newspapersSearch=true and &pcAvailability=true to the regular search API parameters.
Please update documentation on the Developers Network: https://developers.exlibrisgroup.com/primo/apis/search/
And update this Idea. I have removed my votes
