Saudi Etimad government tenders and awards as JSON feed

Saudi Etimad Tenders API is a pay-per-record Apify Actor by Daemon Data that returns Saudi government tenders from the Etimad procurement portal as JSON: agency, type, activity, region, Gregorian and Hijri deadlines, document fee, status, plus detail pages with award results (bidders, winner, amount). Keyword, agency, activity and region filters; daily only-new feed. $3 per 1,000. as JSON, CSV or Excel. It costs $0.003 per tender record with the default options ($3.00 per 1,000); no login to the source site and no proxy or browser to set up on your side, and the same input runs from the Apify console, one REST call, Python, Node.js, n8n or an AI assistant through MCP.

Daemon Data Saudi Etimad Tenders API on Apify   Listing as plain text

Checked on 9 Nov 2026

The Etimad portal listed 291,416 tenders in total. On 9 Nov 2026 the last-two-days example returned 183 new tenders (about 90 a day) with agency, activity, region, type, deadlines and document fee; a {} run returns the 50 newest in about 10 seconds. Awarded tenders add bidders, the awarded supplier and the award value.

Why teams use it

• A feed, not a search form. The portal shows 24 tenders a page in Arabic and has no RSS, export or API for suppliers without an account. This Actor returns the newest tenders first as clean rows and remembers what it delivered, so a scheduled run gives you only new or changed tenders (onlyNew), never charged twice.
• Searchable in English. Tender type, status, region and the main activity groups come with English translations next to the Arabic originals (tenderTypeEn, statusEn, regionEn), and filters accept English names (regions: ["Riyadh"], activities: ["IT"], tenderTypes: ["public"]). Tender names, agencies and purposes stay exactly as the agency published them (Arabic, sometimes English).
• Award results with prices. With includeDetails, awarded tenders carry every bidder's financial offer and technical result, the awarded supplier and the award value: the data a competitor analysis needs.
• Both calendars. Deadlines come as Gregorian timestamps (submissionDeadline) and Hijri dates (submissionDeadlineHijri), plus daysRemaining.
• Built for schedules. Publication windows (2 days to 90 days), a run-deadline guard, a charge-limit guard and a clear status message; unchanged tenders in only-new mode are skipped and not charged.
• Business data only. Agencies, tenders and supplier companies as published on the public portal. No login, no personal data.

Input and how to call it

Example input. Fields and pricing were checked against the public listing on 2026-11-09; this build does not run paid example searches.

{
  "publishedWithin": "2d",
  "maxItems": 50

One HTTP call starts a run, waits for it and returns the records (token from console.apify.com):

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/data_daemon~saudi-etimad-tenders/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"publishedWithin": "2d", "maxItems": 50}'

Python: ApifyClient(token).actor("data_daemon/saudi-etimad-tenders").call(run_input=...). Python example · Node.js example · n8n workflow. AI assistant (MCP): add the remote server https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=data_daemon/saudi-etimad-tenders with header Authorization: Bearer YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or VS Code and ask for the data in plain words.
