## 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

**Get EU Tenders Scraper (TED) results as clean JSON, CSV or Excel, from the Apify API or on a schedule. No login, about $4.00 for 1,000 results.**

### What does EU Tenders Scraper (TED) do?

**EU Tenders Scraper (TED)** extracts structured data from **[api.ted.europa.eu](https://api.ted.europa.eu)**. Collect EU public procurement notices from TED (Tenders Electronic Daily), the EU's official tenders journal, through its public Search API: one clean record per procedure (title, buyer, country, CPV codes, estimated value and currency, procedure, published date, deadline, status, winner), filtered by keywords, CPV codes, countries, buyer, value and dates, and watched for new tenders, changed deadlines and tenders that close or are awarded. It works
as an **API for api.ted.europa.eu data**: run it from Apify Console, on a schedule, or from your own code, and get clean,
typed JSON with numbers as numbers and dates in ISO 8601.

### What you get

| | |
|---|---|
| **Data** | 26 fields per item: `procedureId`, `noticeId`, `title`, `originalTitle`, `buyer`, `buyerCity`, ... |
| **Formats** | JSON, CSV, Excel, HTML, or the Apify API |
| **Price** | $4.00 per 1,000 results, pay per result |
| **Access** | Public api.ted.europa.eu data only: no login, no cookies, robots.txt respected |
| **Licence** | EU reuse of Commission documents (Decision 2011/833/EU): reuse allowed for commercial or non-commercial purposes, free of charge, acknowledging the source (TED, Publications Office of the EU) |

### Why use EU Tenders Scraper (TED)?

- **Analysts and researchers**: export the data to a spreadsheet or database.
- **Developers**: call it from your own code through the Apify API.
- **Monitoring**: run it on a schedule and compare results over time.
- **AI agents and RAG**: give an LLM live structured data.

Main features:

- Follows pagination up to `maxPages` pages per start URL and stops at `maxItems` results.
- Filters: `keywords` (keywords), `cpvCodes` (cpv codes), `countries` (buyer countries), `buyer` (buyer name), `minValue` (minimum estimated value), `noticeTypes` (notice types), `publishedAfter` (published after), `deadlineAfter` (deadline after), `onlyChanges` (only changes since the last run), so you only get (and pay for) the results you need.
- Polite by default: respects robots.txt, at most `maxConcurrency` parallel requests and a delay between requests.
- Checks every result against field validators, so layout changes show up as clear data-quality warnings.
- Runs on the Apify platform: scheduling, API access, integrations, monitoring and datasets you can export.

### Integrations and API

- **Apify API**: start a run and get the results in one HTTP request:

```bash
curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/compass_lab~ted-tenders-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"keywords": ["software"], "noticeTypes": ["competition", "result"], "maxItems": 150}'
```

- **Python** (`pip install apify-client`):

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>")
run = client.actor("compass_lab/ted-tenders-scraper").call(run_input={"keywords": ["software"], "noticeTypes": ["competition", "result"], "maxItems": 150})
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item)
```

- **JavaScript** (`npm install apify-client`):

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>' });
const run = await client.actor('compass_lab/ted-tenders-scraper').call({"keywords": ["software"], "noticeTypes": ["competition", "result"], "maxItems": 150});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
```

- **Make, Zapier, n8n, Google Sheets, webhooks**: use the Apify integrations (Integrations tab) to send each
  run's results where you need them, or to start a run from your workflow.
- **Schedules**: run it hourly, daily or weekly from Apify Console (Schedules) and always have fresh results.

### Tips and advanced options

- Keep **Max items** and **Max pages** as low as you need: fewer pages means a faster, cheaper run.
- Raise **Delay between requests** if the site responds slowly; keep **Max concurrency** low to stay polite.
- Missing values are `null`. Fields that often come back empty are listed in the run log as data-quality warnings.
- **Watch for changes**: every record has `changeType` (`new`, `changed` or `unchanged` compared with the last run
  with the same input) and `changes` (`{"field": {"from": ..., "to": ...}}`). Schedule the Actor with **Only changes
  since the last run** on to get, and pay for, only what moved. `new` means new to this input: not returned by an
  earlier run with the same filters. The last snapshot is kept in a named key-value store called
  `<actor-name>-watch-<id>` (the run log prints its name); delete it, or change the input, to start over.

### FAQ, disclaimers and support

#### Is it legal to scrape api.ted.europa.eu?

D91 (Mouad, 2026-10-04) confirmed the public tenders line, covering the missing robots.txt on api.ted.europa.eu. TED documents its Search API as keyless and 'primarily targeted at data reusers', naming commercial organisations among its users; EU Commission Decision 2011/833/EU makes documents reusable for commercial purposes, free of charge, with acknowledgement of the source. One request at a time, at least 1 s apart, User-Agent with contact email.

The data is published under the **EU reuse of Commission documents (Decision 2011/833/EU): reuse allowed for commercial or non-commercial purposes, free of charge, acknowledging the source (TED, Publications Office of the EU)**: you may reuse it, including commercially, provided you credit the source as the licence requires.

Our Actors are ethical and do not extract any private user data, such as email addresses, gender, or location.
They only extract what the user has chosen to share publicly. We therefore believe that our Actors, when used
for ethical purposes by Apify users, are safe. However, you should be aware that your results could contain
personal data. Personal data is protected by the GDPR in the European Union and by other regulations around the
world. You should not scrape personal data unless you have a legitimate reason to do so. If you're unsure whether
your reason is legitimate, consult your lawyers.

#### How many results can I get?

Up to `maxItems` per run (0 means no limit), as many as the source lists. Each result is one dataset item, and
you are only charged for items that are saved.

#### Can I run it on a schedule or from my own code?

Yes. Schedule it in Apify Console (Schedules), or call it with the `run-sync-get-dataset-items` endpoint or the
Python/JavaScript clients shown in **Integrations and API** above.

#### What are the limitations?

- None identified so far.

#### Where can I get help?

Report problems or ideas on the Issues tab. To call this Actor from your own code, see the API tab.

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "keywords": [
    "software"
  ],
  "noticeTypes": [
    "competition",
    "result"
  ],
  "maxItems": 20,
  "maxPages": 3,
  "maxConcurrency": 1,
  "requestDelayMs": 1000,
  "proxyType": "none"
}' |
apify call compass_lab/ted-tenders-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,compass_lab/ted-tenders-scraper"
        }
    }
}
```

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).
