# IT services tenders in Germany from TED

**Use case:** 

Reads the EU's Tenders Electronic Daily (TED) for tender notices from German buyers in the last 7 days and keeps those classified under CPV 72, IT services. Each notice comes in the same flat format as UK notices: title, buyer, value, deadline and link. Swap the country or the CPV prefix to follow another EU market.

## 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/localwire/uk-public-tenders.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`).
