ParameterRequirementJSON typeDescription
queryoptionalstringFree-text search (Norwegian or English), e.g. "IT-drift", "snørydding", "rammeavtale konsulent". Start here.
typesoptionalunionFilter by notice type. Parent types: PLANNING, COMPETITION, RESULT. Specific types: ANNOUNCEMENT_OF_COMPETITION, DYNAMIC_PURCHASING_SCHEME, QUALIFICATION_SCHEME, ANNOUNCEMENT_OF_INTENT, PRE_ANNOUNCEMENT, ADVISORY_NOTICE, NOTICE_ON_BUYER_PROFILE, ANNOUNCEMENT_OF_CONCLUSION_OF_CONTRACT, CHANGE_OF_CONCLUSION_OF_CONTRACT, CANCELLED_OR_MISSING_CONCLUSION_OF_CONTRACT. Use ["COMPETITION"] + statuses=["ACTIVE"] for open tenders.
statusesoptionalunionACTIVE (open for bids), EXPIRED, AWARDED, CANCELLED.
contract_natureoptionalunionWORKS, SERVICES and/or SUPPLIES.
cpv_codesoptionalunion8-digit CPV codes, e.g. ["45000000"]. Matches the code and its children. Find codes with search_cpv_codes(). Best combined with a free-text query.

buyeroptionalunionBuyer organization full name(s) exactly as written on notices, e.g. ["Trondheim kommune"]. Resolved to Doffin's internal buyer id via a free-text lookup; names that match no buyer are reported in "note" and, if none match, no results are returned (rather than an unfiltered search). Pass the 32-hex buyer id from a result's buyer field directly to skip the lookup.
winneroptionalunionDoffin's internal supplier id (32-hex). Winner names cannot be used - they are not present in search results to resolve against.

hits_per_pageoptionalinteger1-50 (default 10).
include_placeholdersoptionalbooleanBy default, hits whose buyer fields look like unfilled eForm template values (org id 123456789, placeholder buyer names) are dropped from the results as junk. Set True to keep them, each flagged with "possible_placeholder": true.

    Rammeavtale om innredning av biler
    description:
    VAV går til anskaffelse av innredning til etatens nye biler. Bilene skal innredes for bruk av følgende faggrupper: elektrikere, mekanikere, kildesporere, pumpegruppe, renselag, rørleggere, pumpegruppe avløp, lyttere, måleravlesere og gravelag. De fleste bilene som trenger innredning er varebiler med nyttelast ca. 1000 kg (antatt antall pr år 7 stk.), små varebil med nyttelast ca. 500 kg (antatt behov pr år 5 stk.) og store varebiler med totalvekt under 7500kg (antatt behov 2 stk. i løpet av hele avtaleperioden). I tillegg til dette skal noen biler ha enkel innredning; varsellyspakke, lys i førerkupe og varerom med egne brytere, samt bunnplate og gummimatte i varerom. Etaten vil inngå rammeavtale med én leverandør. Rammeavtalens anslåtte og maksimale verdi er kr. 6 000 000, eks. mva. beregnet for 5 år, inkludert opsjoner. Anskaffelsesverdien baseres på historiske tall til forbruket for de siste årene, samt et økende behov for den typen varer. Estimater som er oppgitte i prisskjema er imidlertid kun ment som informasjon til tilbyderne og forplikter ikke oppdragsgiver. For mer informasjon – se konkurransegrunnlag og konkurransegrunnlagets vedlegg.

How an AI agent should use this page

Ground rule: Navigate with HTML GET links to keep explanations and relationships. Use the page's JSON alternative only when concrete values must be extracted, compared or computed.

How to use the search_doffin lookup

  1. Replace the placeholders in the HTML GET template; remove optional parameters you do not need.
  2. Check types, units, limits and ID formats in the parameter table.
  3. Follow linked results to canonical pages before combining sources.

Misreading to avoid: An empty list means "no results for this lookup". An error message or unavailable source does not mean the data does not exist.

Source-specific next step

Go to the source page for other operations. Use the JSON template only after the HTML result shows that the parameters and source are correct.
