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.

    Skyveamfi
    description:
    Anskaffelsen omfatter komplett levering og montering av motorisert skyveamfi med 180 seter. Amfiet skal inneholde 2 trapper. På galleri i bakkant av amfiet skal det leveres plassbygde trappetrinn fra amfi til overkant gulv, samt perforert plate på dekkekant. Consto Bergen AS er valgt som Totalentreprenør for nye Dale Barne- og ungdomsskule, og arbeidene er godt i gang på byggeplass. Pr. februar 2019 pågår arbeider med råbygg og fasader. Leverandøren må inkludere koordinering og detaljprosjektering sammen med Consto og deres underleverandører umiddelbart etter tildeling med hensyn til avklaring av alle grensesnitt. Tidspunkt for montasje av amfi tilpasses den øvrige fremdriften på byggeplass, men det tas sikte på montasje høsten 2019. Bygget skal overleveres våren 2020.

    Øygarden kommune kulturhus - Innvendig oppussing
    description:
    Med bakgrunn i tidligere vedtak er det prosjektert tiltaksplan for oppussing av Øygarden kulturhus på Rong som består av svømmehall og kulturdel med kultursal. Oppdraget gjelder kun kulturdelen av bygget unntatt kjøkken, toaletter, berederrom og eksisternede lager. Kontraktarbeidet organiseres som totalentreprise og omfatter hovedsakelig innvendig oppussing av overflater (gulv, vegger/himling) og nytt ventilasjonsanlegg for forsamlingsrom. Dagens skyveamfi erstattes med et fast amfi med lagringsplass under. Rømmingsdører byttes/oppgraderes mht. brann og universell utforming. Vinduer og himlinger byttes. Vegger i kultursalen kles med nisjer/utspring for å bedre akustikken. I foaje bygges det et felt med spiler på vegger og himling, som «rammer inn» en sitteøy. I samme rom skal det også leveres plassbygget garderobeløsning. Resterende arealer skal overflateoppgraderes, slik at de fremstår moderne og innbydende.

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.
