Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. 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. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## EU Tender Opportunity Matcher > Find and score active EU procurement notices from the official TED Search API by keyword, country, and CPV code. ### What this Actor does Turn public EU procurement notices into a filtered opportunity feed. The Actor queries the official, authentication-free TED Search API and scores each notice against your keywords, countries, and CPV codes. ### Typical use cases - IT and consulting bid discovery - Daily procurement monitoring - CPV-focused opportunity feeds - Agency and grant-consulting research ### Quick start ```json { "keywords": [ "cybersecurity", "zero trust" ], "countries": [ "DEU", "AUT" ], "cpvCodes": [ "72000000" ], "minimumMatchScore": 0.5, "maxResults": 25 } ```` ### Input | Field | Type | Required | Description | |---|---|---:|---| | `keywords` | array | Yes | One to 10 phrases searched through TED full text. | | `countries` | array | No | Optional three-letter TED/ISO country codes used for local scoring, for example DEU or FRA. | | `cpvCodes` | array | No | Optional eight-digit Common Procurement Vocabulary codes used for local scoring. | | `minimumMatchScore` | number | No | Keep notices scoring at or above this value from 0 to 1. | | `maxResults` | integer | No | Hard run cap. TED allows up to 250 notices per page. | ### Output Results are written to the default Apify Dataset. Example: ```json { "noticeId": "123456-2026", "title": "Cybersecurity services framework", "buyerName": "Example authority", "buyerCountry": "DEU", "performanceCountries": [ "DEU" ], "cpvCodes": [ "72000000" ], "publicationDate": "2026-07-01+02:00", "deadlines": [ "2026-08-15+02:00" ], "estimatedValue": 250000, "currency": "EUR", "noticeType": "cn-standard", "contractNature": "services", "matchScore": 1, "source": "TED", "sourceUrl": "https://ted.europa.eu/en/notice/-/detail/123456-2026", "retrievedAt": "2026-07-13T12:00:00.000Z" } ``` ### Pricing draft **Pay per event:** `$matched-opportunity` — **$0.010 USD** per event. One normalized TED notice that meets the configured local match-score threshold. The Actor checks Apify's maximum-total-charge allowance before processing chargeable units and stops when the allowance is exhausted. Apify compute and any customer-owned external API usage remain separate. ### Data source and compliance Official Publications Office of the European Union TED Search API v3. TED explicitly targets data reusers. Outputs retain source URLs and retrieval timestamps. - Use the data only where you have a lawful basis and respect source terms. - Do not use the Actor for surveillance, unlawful discrimination, credential abuse, or anti-bot bypass. - Records include source URLs and retrieval timestamps where applicable. - Outputs are informational and are not legal, financial, medical, or procurement advice. ### Reliability and limits - Strict input and result caps prevent accidental high-cost runs. - External sources can change, throttle, or return incomplete data. - Partial upstream outages cause an explicit run failure rather than fabricated results. - Version `0.1` is a private release candidate. Input and output contracts may change before a public launch. ### Support For problems, include the Actor run ID, a redacted input, expected behavior, and the observed output through the Actor's Apify support channel. Never include provider keys or other credentials. ### Privacy The Actor does not intentionally persist secrets in datasets or logs. Apify platform storage and retention settings still apply to inputs, datasets, and run logs. Review and delete stored runs according to your own retention policy. # Actor input Schema ## `keywords` (type: `array`): One to 10 phrases searched through TED full text. ## `countries` (type: `array`): Optional three-letter TED/ISO country codes used for local scoring, for example DEU or FRA. ## `cpvCodes` (type: `array`): Optional eight-digit Common Procurement Vocabulary codes used for local scoring. ## `minimumMatchScore` (type: `number`): Keep notices scoring at or above this value from 0 to 1. ## `maxResults` (type: `integer`): Hard run cap. TED allows up to 250 notices per page. ## Actor input object example ```json { "keywords": [ "cybersecurity", "zero trust" ], "minimumMatchScore": 0, "maxResults": 50 } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): Default dataset items produced by the Actor. # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
