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.

Generated JavaScript, Python and response structure

Use JSON when the user requests code, machine-readable data, value extraction or further computation. Use the HTML GET page to identify the correct source and verify parameters.

    AI Tools - Pathology
    description:
    Helse Vest is the first region in Norway to achieve complete digital diagnostics in pathology. The four pathology departments in the region all use the same scanners, the same laboratory information and management system (LIMS, Unilab) and image management system (IMS, Sectra). The Helse Vest region is currently in a unique (inter)national position to prove the real innovative potential of artificial intelligence (AI) tools in pathology diagnostics.Currently many different AI tools and image analyses software packages have been CE-IVD approved for use in clinical routine practice, but until now very few pathology departments have implemented these computer-aided diagnostic (CAD) tools in daily clinical practice.The four pathology departments in Helse Vest aim to implement AI tools to enhance the efficiency, speed and objectivity of pathology diagnostics. More importantly, patients will benefit from superior tissue diagnostics that forms the basis for personalized treatment.The short-term goal is to purchase and implement AI tools for:•Automatic quantification of proliferation biomarker KI67 in breast cancer (Sub Contract 01)•Automatic detection and grading of prostate cancer. (Sub Contract 02)An important partner in this project will be Helse Vest IKT because the AI tools to be acquired have to be integrated with our IMS Sectra.Helse Sør-Øst operates 8 pathology departments and is participating in the competition with the option to enter into similar agreements as Helse Vest.

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.
