# Changelog of UK Tenders Scraper (`deriverge/uk-tenders-scraper`) Actor

- **URL**: https://apify.com/deriverge/uk-tenders-scraper/changelog.md
- **Full Actor documentation**: https://apify.com/deriverge/uk-tenders-scraper.md

##### 2026-10-29

*Fixes*

- In new-only mode, the notice on which a run stopped at **Maximum rows** or its maximum cost is no longer remembered in its new state, so it comes in the next run.

##### 2026-09-30

*Fixes*

- Pages are read with a short pause, and after an HTTP 429 the actor waits as long as the service asks (30 seconds when it does not say) and tries again, up to three times. A service that still stops early is named in the run's status message.
- **Only notices you can still bid for** keeps only `tender`, `tenderUpdate` and `tenderAmendment` notices. Planning notices, award updates, cancellations and contract terminations used to pass.
- Find a Tender and Contracts Finder are no longer called above-threshold and below-threshold services, because both carry contracts on either side of the thresholds. `sourceName` now reads "Find a Tender, the UK public procurement notice service" or "Contracts Finder, the UK government contract opportunities service".

*Changes*

- With no publication dates and no deadline, both services are read for the last seven days. They used to be read from their newest notice back with no date limit.

##### 2026-09-27

*Fixes*

- The **CPV codes** filter now works on UK notices; before, it was ignored. The actor reads more notices and keeps those with a matching code, including the extra codes Find a Tender lists for items and lots.
- HTML and HTML entities in titles, descriptions and buyer names are turned into plain text.

*Changes*

- `watchKey` is now called `watchName`. Inputs that still use the old name work as before.

##### 2026-09-24

*Changes*

- Lower price per notice on every plan.

##### 2026-09-22

*Features*

- First public version: tender notices from Find a Tender and Contracts Finder in one table, with deadline, value and CPV codes, filters for keywords, value and deadline, and a new-only mode for scheduled runs.
