Validation API
The Validation API is part of the TED Central Validation Service (TED CVS), which ensures that procurement notices meet compliance standards. It allows users to check notices for errors and warnings independently at any time, ensuring they are correct before submission for publication.
Available Operations
Validate Procurement Notices
The Validation API ensures procurement notices meet EU standards by identifying errors and issuing warnings for potential legal issues. This independent service can validate notices anytime before they’re sent for publication, ensuring they are technically ready for TED. Any notice that passes validation through CVS upon submission to the Publication API or the eNotices2 front-end, can be considered technically valid for publication on TED.
