## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
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.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## 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.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## French Public Procurement Contracts (DECP)

### What it does

**French Public Procurement Contracts** searches France's **DECP** open data (*Données Essentielles de la Commande Publique*) — the official register of public tenders and awarded contracts. Search by buyer, supplier, keyword, city or **CPV** code and get, for each *marché public*: the contract object, the **amount in euros**, the buyer (name + SIRET), the awarded supplier (name + SIRET), the procedure, nature, CPV classification, place of execution and the notification and publication dates. No API key, no scraping. This actor is **free** — you only pay for your own Apify platform usage.

### Input

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `queries` | array of strings | One full-text search per entry: buyer, supplier, keyword, city or CPV code. |
| `maxResults` | integer | Max contract records across all searches (default 200). |

```json
{
  "queries": ["informatique", "Nantes"],
  "maxResults": 40
}
````

### Output

One dataset item per contract. Example:

```json
{
  "query": "informatique",
  "status": "found",
  "id": "2023F01-LOT0100",
  "object": "Fourniture de matériel informatique à destination des collectivités adhérentes",
  "amount_eur": 350000,
  "nature": "ACCORD-CADRE",
  "procedure": "Appel d'offres ouvert",
  "cpv_code": "30200000-1",
  "buyer_name": "SYNDICAT MIXTE POUR LA MODERNISATION NUMERIQUE...",
  "buyer_siret": "25120086100036",
  "supplier_name": "SIA-12 Informatique",
  "supplier_siret": "50127806300026",
  "execution_place": "Rodez",
  "duration_months": 12,
  "notification_date": "2023-02-28",
  "publication_date": "2023-07-05",
  "source": "PES Marchés"
}
```

Searches with no hits return `{"status": "not_found"}`; errors return `{"status": "error"}` with a message — the actor never crashes on a bad entry.

### Use cases

- Lead generation: find public buyers and the suppliers who win their contracts.
- Market intelligence: track amounts, CPV categories and procedures over time.
- Competitor watch: see which companies win tenders in your sector or region.
- Enrich a CRM with public-sector spending signals by SIRET.

### Limitations & fair use

- Data is the official DECP (essential data only); coverage depends on buyers' publication.
- Full-text relevance follows the source's own indexing; refine terms for precision.
- The actor paginates politely and caps at 10,000 hits per search term.

# Actor input Schema

## `queries` (type: `array`):

One full-text search per entry: a buyer, supplier, keyword, city or CPV code (e.g. "informatique", "Nantes", "30200000").

## `maxResults` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of contract records to return across all searches.

## Actor input object example

  ],
  "maxResults": 200
}
```

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "queries": [
        "informatique",
        "Nantes"
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("vigilant_jasmine/french-public-procurement-decp").call(input);
