## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Korea Public Tenders (나라장터) — Government Bid Notices in English

South Korea publishes every public-sector tender through the Public Procurement
Service (조달청). Roughly **1,400 new notices go up every day** — goods, services,
construction and foreign procurement — and the data is openly licensed.

It is also entirely in Korean. Field names, agency names, contract methods,
award rules: all of it. And the four procurement categories sit behind four
separate endpoints, so "get today's tenders" is four calls, not one.

This Actor does that part for you and returns **one normalized English schema**.
No Korean API key, no portal registration, no Korean required.

### What you get

One record per notice, ~58 fields, including:

| Group | Fields |
|---|---|
| **Identity** | `notice_no`, `notice_seq`, `unified_notice_no`, `reference_no` |
| **Notice** | `title_ko`, `notice_type_ko` / `_en`, `category`, `url` |
| **Agencies** | `notice_agency_ko`, `demand_agency_ko` (+ codes) |
| **Method** | `contract_method_ko` / `_en`, `bidding_method_ko` / `_en`, `award_method_ko` |
| **Money** | `estimated_price_krw`, `allocated_budget_krw`, `vat_krw`, `unit_price_krw` |
| **Award modelling** | `award_lower_limit_rate`, `reserve_price_count_total`, `reserve_price_count_drawn`, `price_decision_method_ko` |
| **Schedule** | `posted_at`, `bidding_opens_at`, `bidding_closes_at`, `award_opening_at`, `qualification_deadline_at` — all ISO 8601 |
| **What's being bought** | `purchase_items[]`, `product_class_ko`, `quantity`, `unit_ko`, `delivery_days`, `delivery_terms_ko` |
| **Eligibility** | `international_bidding`, `industry_restricted`, `region_restriction_basis_ko`, `joint_supply_method_ko` |
| **Documents** | `attachments[]` — official notice and specification files |

Amounts come back as integers, dates as ISO 8601, yes/no flags as booleans.
Common Korean values (contract method, notice type, bidding method) carry an
English label alongside the original.

#### Example

```json
{
  "notice_no": "R26BK01711246",
  "title_ko": "2026학년도 JST공유대학본부 실험실습 기자재_생체신호계측실습 기자재 구매",
  "category": "Goods",
  "notice_agency_ko": "전북대학교",
  "contract_method_en": "Private contract",
  "estimated_price_krw": 81800000,
  "allocated_budget_krw": 89980000,
  "bidding_closes_at": "2026-09-09T14:00:00",
  "award_opening_at": "2026-09-09T15:00:00",
  "purchase_items": [
    { "seq": "1", "class_no": "4921181901", "name_ko": "동작분석기" }
  ],
  "quantity": 1,
  "unit_ko": "식",
  "attachments": [ { "name_ko": "규격서.hwp", "url": "https://..." } ],
  "url": "https://www.g2b.go.kr/link/PNPE027_01/single/?bidPbancNo=R26BK01711246",
  "source": "조달청 나라장터 (Public Procurement Service, Korea) via data.go.kr"
}
```

### Input

Every field is optional. The default is the last 7 days across all four categories.

| Field | Type | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| `startDate` / `endDate` | date | `YYYY-MM-DD`, Korea time |
| `categories` | array | `goods`, `service`, `construction`, `foreign` |
| `keywords` | array | Match on title or agency. Korean or English |
| `minBudgetKrw` | integer | Skip anything below this budget |
| `maxItems` | integer | Stop after N results. `0` = no limit |

### Who this is for

- **Suppliers and exporters** evaluating the Korean public market — `purchase_items`
  and `quantity` tell you what is actually being bought, not just that a tender exists
- **Bid-support and consulting tools** that need a clean feed instead of a scraper
- **Market researchers** tracking public spending by agency, category or budget band
- **AI agents** that need Korean procurement as structured, English-labelled context

### Notes

**Source.** [조달청 나라장터 입찰공고정보서비스](https://www.data.go.kr/data/15129394/openapi.do),
published on Korea's national open-data portal under an unrestricted licence
(이용허락범위 제한 없음). Every record carries a `source` field and a `url` back
to the original notice.

**This is an API client, not a scraper.** Data comes from the government's own
REST API with a registered key. The g2b.go.kr website is never touched, so
nothing here breaks when the site is redesigned.

**No personal data.** The upstream API returns officer names, phone numbers and
email addresses. This Actor removes all of them — from dedicated fields and from
free-text fields alike — and never emits them under any setting.

**Freshness.** Notices appear as the Procurement Service publishes them.
Amendments carry `changed_at` and `change_reason_ko`.

### Development

```bash
export G2B_SERVICE_KEY='...'   # data.go.kr 인증키
python3 probe.py               # 오퍼레이션·필드명 대조
apify push                     # 배포
```

`probe.py`는 응답 필드를 `src/normalize.py`의 `FIELD_MAP`과 대조하고
`sample_response.json`을 남긴다. 필드가 어긋나면 조용히 빈 값이 나가므로,
업스트림이 바뀐 것 같으면 먼저 이걸 돌릴 것.

## `startDate` (type: `string`):

Earliest notice posting date, YYYY-MM-DD (Korea time). Defaults to 7 days ago.

## `endDate` (type: `string`):

Latest notice posting date, YYYY-MM-DD (Korea time). Defaults to today.

## `categories` (type: `array`):

Which kinds of tender to include. All four by default.

## `keywords` (type: `array`):

Keep only notices whose title or agency matches one of these. Korean or English. Leave empty for everything.

## `minBudgetKrw` (type: `integer`):

Skip notices below this allocated budget. 0 = no filter.

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Stop after this many notices, spread evenly across the selected categories. Korea posts roughly 1,400 notices a day, so raise this for a full sweep. 0 = no limit.

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{}' |
apify call atomo-studio/korea-g2b-tender-notices --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,atomo-studio/korea-g2b-tender-notices"
        }
    }
}

```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
