Overview

The Tenders in Ukraine API from tenders.guru offers free, unauthenticated access to Ukrainian public procurement data including tender titles, contracting authorities, contract values, and awarded suppliers. The data is sourced from Ukraine's Prozorro open procurement system, one of the most transparent public procurement platforms in the world. It is ideal for anti-corruption research, market analysis, or civic tech applications.

Beginner Tip

Because the underlying data comes from Prozorro, you can cross-reference records at https://prozorro.gov.ua for additional detail — use the tender ID from the API response as a search key.

Common Errors & Troubleshooting

Generated guidance based on this API's documentation, not observed by us. Treat it as a starting point and check against the provider's own error reference.

Empty results on recent dates Ingestion lag means very recent tenders may not yet appear in the API
Query tenders from at least 24-48 hours ago to ensure the data has been processed and indexed
Character encoding issues Ukrainian Cyrillic characters not rendering correctly if the HTTP client does not handle UTF-8
Explicitly set Accept-Charset: utf-8 header and ensure your output stream uses UTF-8 encoding
Timeout on large pages Requesting too many records per page at once
Use per_page=10 or per_page=25 rather than the maximum to keep response times fast

Metadata Score Breakdown

Estimated from metadata — endpoint not independently tested

This score is estimated from observable metadata — HTTPS support, authentication model, declared CORS, and documentation reachability — because the API requires authentication or exposes no publicly testable endpoint. The five-signal breakdown is only shown for live-tested APIs.
