Summary

Flag contracts exhibiting growth above a specified percentage threshold

Inputs

  • agency — Filter by federal agency. Defaults to all agencies; select a specific agency to narrow results.
  • fiscalYear — Federal fiscal year (October 1 – September 30). Defaults to 2024; range 2015–2026.
  • maxResults — Maximum number of contract results to return. Defaults to 50; range 1–500.
  • minGrowthPercent — Flag contracts that grew by this percentage or more. Defaults to 200; range 100–1000.
  • waitForCompletion — Whether to wait for the actor run to finish before returning results. Defaults to true.

Output shape

Each returned item contains the contract growth result data enriched with _operation, _runId, and _datasetId.

If waitForCompletion is false, returns a summary object { success: true, status: 'RUNNING', runId, datasetId, operation } enabling later status checks via the Get Run Status operation.
