# Coverage and attribution

Listings and single notices carry a `coverage` object that describes the
answer it came with. MCP tool results carry an object of the same shape.

```json
{
  "sources": ["TED"],
  "attribution": [
    {
      "source": "TED",
      "text": "Uppgifter: Tenders Electronic Daily (TED), Europeiska unionens publikationsbyrå | Bearbetning: Fentlig AB"
    }
  ],
  "dataAsOf": "2026-08-27",
  "isComplete": false
}
```

`sources` names the sources of the rows in this response. `dataAsOf` is
when the data was last updated. `note`, when present, states `isComplete` in
words.

## Where the notices come from

Notices come from the EU's Tenders Electronic Daily (TED) and from the
Swedish platforms where buyers advertise. Notices from those platforms are
listed with the source `Fentlig`.

Notices are in Swedish and are not translated. Search in Swedish.

The default market is Sweden, meaning notices from buyers in Sweden. On the
REST API, `country` and `foreign_buyers` widen it; see
[Getting started](/utvecklare/getting-started#filtering).

## The published set is a subset

`isComplete` is false. Not every procurement advertised in Sweden is in the
published set. An empty result means nothing published here matches, not that
nothing exists. When you show a count or a total, say that it covers the
published set.

## What is published

The notice as advertised: title, buyer, CPV classification, region, procedure,
deadline, estimated value, and a link to the original. Once a procurement is
concluded, the outcome at market level: award date, number of bids, awarded
value.

The names of winning suppliers, the text of the tender documents and the
requirements extracted from them are not in the published set. Fentlig
customers read them in the app and through the [MCP server](/utvecklare/mcp),
according to their plan. See [Authentication](/utvecklare/authentication#scopes)
for which plan includes each.

Contact details are removed from text written by a buyer. Names can remain,
so treat `description` as text that may name people.

## Attribution

`coverage.attribution` is a list of lines, one per source. If you republish,
display or redistribute the data, reproduce every line verbatim, dates
included.

Read the lines from each response rather than copying them into your code: the
dates in them change. Render all of them.
