TED Tenders Scraper - EU Public Procurement Notices

Search EU public tenders published on TED (Tenders Electronic Daily, the online Supplement to the Official Journal of the European Union) by keywords, buyer country, CPV code, publication date and notice type. The Actor returns one flat JSON record per notice: title, buyer, country, CPV codes, notice and procedure type, deadline, estimated value, number of lots, and links to the TED page, PDF and XML.

What it does

• Queries the official TED Search API v3 (POST https://api.ted.europa.eu/v3/notices/search), which is public and needs no API key. No web page is scraped.
• Accepts plain keywords (full-text search) or a TED expert-search query (classification-cpv=72000000 AND buyer-country=FRA), combined with optional filters.
• Returns the newest notices first and pages through the results until maxItems is reached (40 notices per request).
• Covers every notice type published on TED: prior information notices, contract notices, contract award notices, modifications, corrigenda, for all countries that publish on TED.
• Gives titles, buyer names and PDF links in the language you choose (24 EU languages), with fallback to English, then to the original language.

Data source and reuse

Data comes from TED, operated by the Publications Office of the European Union, through its public Search API, which does not require authentication. The TED legal notice states that the procurement notices published in the Supplement to the Official Journal of the European Union can be freely reused, for commercial or non-commercial purposes. This Actor is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Publications Office or the European Union, and does not use the TED logo.

Limitations

• estimatedValue is often empty: many buyers do not publish an estimate, and award notices carry the awarded value instead (not returned). On a sample of 50 IT contract notices, 12 had an estimated value.
• deadline is empty for notices without a submission phase (award notices, modifications, most prior information notices).
• buyerName and buyerCountry give the first buyer only; joint procurement notices (EU institutions) can list dozens of buyers.
• When lots have different estimated values in different currencies, estimatedValue is left empty rather than summed.
• title follows TED's format (country – subject – procedure title); TED translates the first two parts, the procedure title stays in the original language.
• Keyword search is TED's full-text search (FT~) over all languages of the notice. Quotes and brackets are removed from plain keywords; use expert syntax for phrase or field searches.
• The output covers the fields listed above; lot-level details (per-lot values, award winners) are not returned. Use xmlUrl for the complete notice.
