### get_current_tenders

Fetch a paginated list of procurement records from the ZPPA OCDS system, sorted by most recent process date. Returns record identifiers that can be used with get_tender_details to retrieve full information.

**Estimated cost:** Metered

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-------|------|----------|-------------|
| `page` | integer | No | Page number to fetch. Each page contains 20 records. |

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/parse-zppa-org-zm-api-ff863a8e/get_current_tenders \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_LOCUS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"page":"<integer>"}'
```

### get_tender_details

Fetch full OCDS compiled release details for a specific procurement record. Returns tender information including title, procuring entity, procurement method, tenderers, budget, and contract details. The record_id is the MongoDB ObjectId obtained from get_current_tenders or search_tenders results.

**Estimated cost:** Metered

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-------|------|----------|-------------|
| `record_id` | string | Yes | MongoDB ObjectId of the procurement record, obtained from the 'id' field in get_current_tenders or search_tenders results (e.g. '<record_id>'). |

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/parse-zppa-org-zm-api-ff863a8e/get_tender_details \

  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"record_id":"<string>"}'
```

### search_tenders

Search OCDS procurement records by OCID. The query matches against the OCID field (e.g. searching for a numeric OCID portion finds the corresponding record like 'ocds-23g63a01-XXXXXXXX'). Returns paginated results with record identifiers usable in get_tender_details.

**Estimated cost:** Metered

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-------|------|----------|-------------|
| `page` | integer | No | Page number to fetch. Each page contains 20 records. |
| `query` | string | Yes | OCID search term. Matches against the numeric portion of the OCID (e.g. '10000001' matches 'ocds-23g63a01-10000001'). |

curl -X POST https://api.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/parse-zppa-org-zm-api-ff863a8e/search_tenders \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_LOCUS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
