## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## e-marchespublics.com Tender Scraper (French Public Procurement)

Get French public procurement tenders (*appels d'offres*) from [e-marchespublics.com](https://www.e-marchespublics.com) as clean structured data: contracting authority, location, procedure type, submission deadline and a link to the full notice.

### What you can do with it

- **Monitor new tenders in your sector**: run it daily with a keyword such as "nettoyage" or "voirie" to catch new opportunities as soon as they are published (results come newest first).
- **Scan a category of work**: filter on Works (travaux), Services or Supplies (fourniture) to see only the tenders relevant to your business.
- **Feed a sales or bid-tracking pipeline**: pull contracting authority, deadline and notice link into a CRM or spreadsheet.
- **Benchmark the market**: see which public bodies are buying what, where, and under which procedure.

### Input

| Field | What it does |
|---|---|
| Keywords (`what`) | Words to search for, exactly as typed in the site's own search box, for example `nettoyage`. Leave empty for every current tender. |
| Category (`category`) | `tous` (all), `travaux` (works), `service` (services) or `fourniture` (supplies). Default: `tous`. |
| Maximum number of tenders (`maxItems`) | The run stops once this many tenders are saved. Default `50`, up to `500`. |

### Output

One record per tender:

```json
{
  "id": "1184411-16543",
  "title": "Marché de prestations de nettoyage des vitreries des bâtiments communaux",
  "organism": "MAIRIE DE CORDEMAIS",
  "location": "44360 CORDEMAIS",
  "procedureType": "Service - Procédure Adaptée",
  "deadline": "13/11/2026 à 12h00",
  "url": "https://www.e-marchespublics.com/appel-offre/pays-de-la-loire/loire-atlantique/cordemais/1184411/16543"
}
```

Export the dataset as JSON, CSV or Excel, or read it through the Apify API.

### Good to know

- Tenders come newest first: a smaller `maxItems` still gets you the most recent opportunities.
- Keyword and category filters are applied by the site itself while reading the result pages: you only pay for tenders that match.
- A default run (no filters, `maxItems` 50) saves 50 tenders from 5 pages in well under a minute.
- Only publicly listed notice data is extracted (title, contracting authority name, location, procedure type, deadline, link). No contact name, phone number or e-mail is ever collected.

echo '{}' |
apify call bibian/e-marchespublics-tenders-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json

    "mcpServers": {

```

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).
