## FAQ

### How do I get it in Slack?

Create a Slack incoming webhook (Slack → Apps → Incoming Webhooks), paste its URL into 'Slack webhook URL', then add a daily schedule to the task.

### Will I get the same tenders every day?

No. With 'Only new / changed items' on, each run only outputs (and charges for) tenders it hasn't seen before under the same watch list name.

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [Australian Government Tenders Scraper — AusTender & States](https://apify.com/he_work/au-gov-tenders-scraper.md) with a specific input configuration. Visit the [Actor detail page](https://apify.com/he_work/au-gov-tenders-scraper.md) to learn more, explore other use cases, and run it yourself.


## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

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 full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/he_work/au-gov-tenders-scraper.md

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`).
