Every morning the schedule runs the **gov-tenders** Actor on Apify.\n2. It reads UK Find a Tender, UK Contracts Finder and EU TED, keeps open notices that match your keywords and minimum value, and with `onlyNew` returns only notices it has not sent you before.\n3. A Code node builds one Slack message (and one HTML email), soonest deadline first. Days with nothing new send nothing.\n\n### Setup\n1. Add your own Apify API token as an *Apify API* credential (Apify Console > Settings > API & Integrations).\n2. Pick your Slack credential and channel. For email, activate **Send by email** and add SMTP.\n3. Edit the Input JSON: `keywords`, `cpvCodes`, `countries`, `minValue`. Keep it the same between runs so `onlyNew` remembers what was sent.\n\n### Requirements\nApify account (the free plan returns up to 100 tenders per run) and Slack or SMTP. The Actor charges $3 per 1,000 tenders; the node caps each run at $1.\n\n**Community node:** uses the verified Apify node (`@apify/n8n-nodes-apify`). On n8n Cloud it installs from the canvas; on self-hosted n8n install it under Settings > Community nodes.\n\n### Customization tips\nAdd `ca-canadabuys` or `au-austender` to `sources`, or add `awarded` to `statuses` to see who won.\n\nMade by locaihost, a small studio that builds its tools with AI agents.",
