Track EU Public Tenders (TED) as JSON: Buyer, Deadline and CPV Codes Without a Scraper
Описание и применение
Автоматический сбор тендеров TED в формате JSON без скрапинга, используя Apify Actor и n8n workflow, позволяющий ежедневно обновлять таблицу Google Sheets.
Задача
Missing a bid deadline in EU public procurement leads to lost revenue, but TED’s UI is human‑centric and not script‑friendly.
Результат
Automated retrieval of TED tenders as clean JSON, eliminating the need for manual browsing or HTML scraping, and enabling daily updates in a spreadsheet.
Рабочий процесс
- 1. Create an Apify token (free tier works).
- 2. Send a POST request to https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/steadfetch~ted-tender-monitor/run-sync-get-dataset-items with Authorization header and JSON body containing query and maxResults.
- 3. Receive a JSON array of tender items, each validated against a schema and containing buyer, title, publication and deadline dates, CPV codes, notice link, and estimated value.
- 4. Optionally import the provided n8n workflow to run daily at 07:00 and append each tender to a Google Sheet.
- 5. Use the data for triage or further automation.
Доказательства
Every morning, thousands of new procurement notices land on TED (Tenders Electronic Daily), the official journal of EU public procurement.
The Actor queries the official TED public procurement notices and returns one dataset item per tender, validated against a schema before it is stored.
It runs on Apify's pay-per-event model: 2.00 USD per 1,000 tenders (0.002 USD per validated tender delivered) plus a 0.00005 USD charge per run start.
Both snippets come straight from the examples repository, where each Steadfetch Actor has a folder with a README, an API call, JavaScript and Python clients, and a real example of the output.
If you would rather not write code at all, the same folder ships an n8n workflow you can import and activate: it runs daily at 07:00, calls the Actor, and appends one row per tender to a Google Sheet.
