[DEPRECATED] SAM.gov US Federal Contracts Scraper — retired 2026-05-18

This Actor is no longer maintained or functional. Started 2026-05-18, retired same day after the SAM.gov free-tier API quota was found incompatible with a shared-key Apify Store model.

Why was this Actor retired?

SAM.gov's public API has a daily quota that's too restrictive for a shared-key Apify Store actor:

  • New non-federal accounts: 40 calls / day
  • Approved non-federal accounts: 1,000 calls / day (after approval, can take weeks)

With either limit, a single power user can exhaust the shared quota in minutes — blocking every other user for the rest of the 24-hour window. We tried a "hybrid" pattern (shared default key + optional user key) but the math doesn't work for sustainable shared-key operation.

What should you use instead?

Get a free SAM.gov API key and call the public API directly:

  1. Register at sam.gov (free, via Login.gov, no SSN required)
  2. Account Details → API Key → Generate
  3. Call the API: https://api.sam.gov/opportunities/v2/search?api_key=YOUR_KEY&postedFrom=01/01/2026&postedTo=12/31/2026
  4. Documentation: open.gsa.gov/api/get-opportunities-public-api

With your own key, the 40/1,000 calls per day quota is yours alone — no shared bottleneck.

For EU procurement (which does NOT have this rate-limit problem because the TED API is unauthenticated), see our EU TED Tenders Scraper.

Technical note

If you run this Actor, it will exit immediately with a deprecation notice in the log. The dataset will contain a single object documenting the deprecation:

{
"deprecated": true,
"retiredOn": "2026-05-18",
"reason": "SAM.gov free-tier quota incompatible with shared-key Apify Store model",
"alternative": "Use the SAM.gov public API directly with your own free key",
"docsUrl": "https://open.gsa.gov/api/get-opportunities-public-api/"
}

No further updates or builds are planned. The Actor remains published in Apify Store only because deletion is restricted for published Actors; the listing serves as a redirect notice for past users.
