Frequently Asked Questions

What does the SAM.gov opportunities scraper cover?
It covers US federal contract opportunities posted on SAM.gov, the official system that replaced FedBizOpps. That includes solicitations, combined synopsis/solicitations, presolicitations, sources sought, special notices and award notices from every federal department and agency, with more than 47,000 active notices at any time.

Do I need a SAM.gov API key?
No. The scraper reads the same public data service that powers the SAM.gov search interface, so no API key, account or registration is required.

How many opportunities can I scrape in one run?
Set the Max Items input to whatever you need. You can pull a handful of recent notices or thousands across a date range. Use the search term, NAICS, set-aside, notice type and posted date filters to target exactly the opportunities you want.

Can I filter by NAICS code, set-aside or agency?
Yes. You can filter by free-text keyword, six-digit NAICS code, set-aside program, notice type and a posted/updated date window. Leave filters blank to get the most recently updated notices across all agencies.

Why are NAICS, place of performance or description sometimes empty?
Some notice types, especially award notices and simplified repair notices, do not carry a NAICS code, place of performance or full description on SAM.gov. The scraper returns every field the notice actually has and leaves the rest null rather than inventing data. Enable Fetch opportunity details to pull the richest possible record for each notice.
