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.
date_fromoptionalunionPublication date lower bound, "YYYY-MM-DD".
date_tooptionalunionPublication date upper bound, "YYYY-MM-DD".
sort_byoptionalstringRELEVANCE (default), PUBLICATION_DATE_DESC, PUBLICATION_DATE_ASC, DEADLINE, ESTIMATED_VALUE_ASC, ESTIMATED_VALUE_DESC.
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.
limitoptionalintegerGateway page size; default 25, maximum 100.
offsetoptionalintegerNumber of list items to skip; default 0.
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.

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.
