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.
locationsoptionalunionNUTS-style location ids, e.g. ["NO060"] (Trøndelag), or "anyw" for non-location-bound. See list_location_codes().
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.

    Hattfjelldal kommune inviterer til åpen anbudskonkurranse for brøyting/snørydding av kommunale veger, plasser og kryss fra sesongen 2021/2022 og 5 år fremover. Det er opsjon på forlengelse med ytterligere 3 år (2+1). Oppdraget omfatter i hovedsak snøbrøyting på vegnettet. Brøytingen er delt inn i totalt 6 delkontrakter - hvorav de ulike delkontraktene har èn eller flere rode tilknyttet kontrakt. Oppdragsgiver henviser til konkurransegrunnlaget for ytterligere informasjon om konkurransen og innholdet.

    NTNU ønsker å skaffe toppmoderne utstyr for å utvikle ny kunnskap om aluminiumformbarhet. Vi ønsker å utvikle et forskningsapparat for avansert tredimensjonal bøyning av aluminiumprofiler i singel en-trinns prosess, med mulighet for real-time og in-line adaptiv forming basert på en lukket-sløyfeformingsprosess. Til vår kunnskap så er det ikke mulig å finne slikt utstyr som en standard maskin, hvor vi for eksempel deltok på verdens største rørbøyningsmesse i Düsseldorf 2018 uten å finne en relevant teknisk løsning og / eller leverandører. Vår ide er å bygge på et patent fra Hydro / Benteler fra 2002 (WO 02/13988 - https://patentimages.storage.googleapis.com/33/bb/13/33406d47554048/WO2002013988A1.pdf), og utvikle dette videre for å passe våre behov. Vi har akseptert fra Benteler om å bruke patent / IP som utgangspunkt for å utvikle og bygge en oppgradert versjon på grunn av mekaniske / elektronikk / styringssystemutvikling de siste årene.

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.
