## Pricing

from $3.20 / 1,000 award records

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

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 examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

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`).

# README

## Latvia Procurement Results API — who wins public contracts in Latvia

Latvia Procurement Results API turns the open data of the Latvian Electronic Procurement System (EIS) into one clean row per awarded contract: winner, buyer, value, procedure, dates and a link to the EIS notice.

### What it does

- **Search** - by winner, buyer, keyword, value, procedure and signing date.
- **Lookup** - every contract won or issued by given registration numbers.
- **Monitor** - only new or changed awards (competitor alerts).
- Streams yearly files with a low memory footprint.

### Who it's for

- Bid managers and sales teams selling to the Latvian public sector
- Competitor and market analysts
- Journalists and anti-corruption teams
- KYB and supplier-risk teams

### Input

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `mode` | string | `search` | What to do. `search` - find awarded contracts by winner, buyer, keywords, value, date `lookup` - all contracts of given companies (winner or buyer codes) `monitor` - report only new or changed awards `selftest` - health check (for schedules) |
| `years` | array | `["2026"]` | Years of award data (2016 onwards). Default: from signedFrom or the current year. |
| `winnerCodes` | array |  | Latvian registration numbers of winning suppliers. |
| `buyerCodes` | array |  | Latvian registration numbers of contracting authorities. |
| `keywords` | array | `["datori"]` | Words in the tender or lot title (Latvian), any match. |
| `winnerContains` | string |  | Part of the supplier name. |
| `buyerContains` | string |  | Part of the buyer name. |
| `procedureContains` | string |  | e.g. 'Atklāts konkurss'. |
| `minValue` | number |  | Contract value from. |
| `maxValue` | number |  | Contract value up to. |
| `signedFrom` | string |  | ISO date. |
| `signedTo` | string |  | ISO date. |
| `emitBaseline` | boolean | `false` | Report all current matches on the first monitor run. |
| `maxItems` | integer | `100` | Stop after this many billable results (a spending cap per run). |

Modes: `search`, `lookup`, `monitor`, `selftest`.

#### Example input

```json
{
  "mode": "search",
  "keywords": [
    "datori"
  ],
  "minValue": 10000,
  "maxItems": 20
}
```

### Output example

Every row is flat JSON with `status` (`ok`, `not_found`, `invalid_input`, `source_error`), `source`, `sourceUrl`, `fetchedAt` and `dataAsOf`.

```json
{
  "status": "ok",
  "source": "Latvia EIS public procurement results (data.gov.lv open data)",
  "sourceUrl": "https://data.gov.lv/dati/lv/dataset/",
  "fetchedAt": "2026-10-25T08:00:00Z",
  "dataAsOf": "2026-10-24",
  "title": "Malkas piegāde",
  "buyer": "Rēzeknes novada pašvaldība",
  "winner": "SIA Example",
  "winnerCode": "42403010023",
  "contractValue": 12276.0,
  "currency": "EUR",
  "signedAt": "2019-06-06"
}
```

### Pricing

Pay per event — you pay only for results, never for empty or failed lookups (`not_found`, `invalid_input` and `source_error` rows are free).

| Event | What is charged | Price | Per 1,000 |
|---|---|---|---|
| `result` | Award record | $0.004 | $4 |
| `change-event` | Change event | $0.03 | $30 |

Apify platform usage (compute, storage) is included in the event prices. Set *Maximum cost per run* in the run options to cap spending; the Actor stops cleanly when the limit is reached. Apify subscribers on Bronze, Silver and Gold plans get automatic discounts on the event prices.

### Use with MCP, n8n, Make and Zapier

- **Apify MCP server** — add `https://mcp.apify.com?tools=tiger19935/latvia-procurement-results` to Claude, Cursor or any MCP client so an AI agent can call this Actor as a tool.
- **n8n / Make / Zapier** — use the Apify integration, pick *Run Actor*, select `tiger19935/latvia-procurement-results` and map the dataset items. Saved Tasks + a schedule turn it into a monitor with webhooks.
- **API** — `POST https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/tiger19935~latvia-procurement-results/runs` or the official Apify clients for JavaScript and Python.

### FAQ

**Is it legal to use this data?**
The Actor only reads official open data from the Latvian Electronic Procurement System via data.gov.lv. Official open data; only legal entities are listed. Every row carries `source` and `sourceUrl` so you can attribute it. No captcha, login or personal data of private individuals is bypassed or collected.

**How fresh is the data?**
Each row has `dataAsOf` - the publication date of the source file or API. If the publisher stops updating, `dataAsOf` stops moving and the daily self-test run fails, so you can tell stale data from a broken Actor.

**What happens when nothing is found or the source is down?**
You get a `not_found` or `source_error` row and you are not charged. The Actor never fails silently with an empty dataset.

**How do I get alerts?**
Create a Task with `mode: monitor`, schedule it (hourly or daily) and add a webhook, or connect the Apify integration in n8n, Make or Zapier. Only new, changed and removed records are returned and charged.

**What is a row?**
One awarded contract per tender part (lot) and supplier.

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
