Contest → Search Contests
AI-generatedSummary
Searches Freelancer.com’s active contests using an optional search query and additional API query parameters. Uses OAuth2 or an access token, and returns contest records up to the selected pagination limit.
Inputs
- Authentication (required) — Choose OAuth2 (default) or Access Token credentials.
- Search Query — Text passed as the API
queryparameter; defaults to an empty string. - Return All — Defaults to true and retrieves all available results. Set false to use a result limit.
- Limit — Maximum number of contests when Return All is false; defaults to 100 and must be at least 1.
- Query Parameters — Additional query parameters as a JSON object. These override generated parameters with matching keys; array values are sent as repeated parameters where supported.
Output shape
A list of n8n items, one per contest. Each item’s JSON contains id, resource, operation, data, and _meta fields.
Each
datafield contains the contest record returned by the API. Pagination uses pages of up to 100 results and stops when the API returns a short page or the configured limit is reached.
Examples
Example 1: Search by text
Enter a phrase in Search Query and leave Return All enabled to retrieve all matching active contests.
Example 2: Limit the results
Set Return All to false and choose a Limit to cap the number of contests returned.
