## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need curated, platform-operator-focused news specifically about government technology procurement, contracts, and tenders — rather than general news search or broader market intelligence tools. It is especially useful when you want pre-filtered, relevant results without having to sift through general news feeds, and when publisher attribution and publication dates are important for sourcing and recency checks.

## Known failure modes

- No results found for query — returns empty list when no recent articles match the search terms
- Query too broad or too narrow — may return irrelevant or zero results
- Rate limiting or payment failure — endpoint returns 402 if payment is not properly handled
- Max results out of range — returns error if max_results is below 1 or above 10
- Service downtime — upstream news aggregation may occasionally be unavailable
