Pricing
Pay-per-event for each delivered award.
- Empty queries / zero results → not charged
- Exact $/1k is on the Store pricing tab
Limitations (honest)
- Endpoint:
POST https://api.usaspending.gov/api/v2/search/spending_by_award/ - Default award types are contracts (
A,B,C,D); setawardTypeCodesfor grants/loans/IDVs awardingAgencymust match USAspending toptier names (e.g.Department of Defense)- Place of performance is often sparse in search results
- Date range defaults to the last 12 months when omitted
