## Query

The query API returns only the rows you ask for, as JSON, NDJSON or CSV, from the same typed rows as the files. It needs no key. Rows: https://publicdata.au/api/v1/datasets/act-notifiable-invoices/rows. Counts and sums: https://publicdata.au/api/v1/datasets/act-notifiable-invoices/aggregate.

- Rows: https://publicdata.au/api/v1/datasets/act-notifiable-invoices/rows?limit=5
- Aggregate: https://publicdata.au/api/v1/datasets/act-notifiable-invoices/aggregate?group=reporting_entity&metric=sum.payment_amount

Each filter is `field=operator.value` in the query string, and every filter must match. A number or date field compares as a number or date, and a text field compares as text. Values are case-sensitive except with `ilike`. Prefix `not.` to negate a filter, as `not.eq.value`. Operators: `eq.value`, `neq.value`, `gt.value`, `gte.value`, `lt.value`, `lte.value`, `like.*text*`, `ilike.*text*`, `in.(a,b,c)`, `is.null`.

- `select`: Fields to return, comma-separated. Every field when absent.
- `order`: `field.asc` or `field.desc`, comma-separated. The publisher's row order when absent.
- `limit`: Rows per page, 1 to 10,000. 100 when absent.
- `offset`: Rows to skip. The `next` URL in each answer sets it for you.
- `group`: On `aggregate`, fields to group by, comma-separated.
- `metric`: On `aggregate`, `count`, `sum.field`, `avg.field`, `min.field` or `max.field`, comma-separated. `count` when absent.
- `format`: `json`, `ndjson` or `csv`. JSON carries the provenance header, and the others carry it in response headers.

Without a version the API answers from the newest loaded version, and that answer changes when the publisher releases again. Put `versions/<date>/` before `rows` or `aggregate` for an answer that never changes. `/api/v1/datasets/<slug>/versions` lists the loaded versions. The API allows 60 requests in 10 seconds from one address. Above that it answers 429 for 10 seconds with a `Retry-After` header, a `RateLimit-Policy` header and a JSON body that gives the limit. Every API answer carries the same `RateLimit-Policy`. A client should wait the `Retry-After` seconds, or read the files, which have no limit.

## Questions

### How do I download Notifiable invoices register as a CSV file?

Open https://publicdata.au/d/act-notifiable-invoices/latest/data.csv. It redirects to the newest dated version, which is https://publicdata.au/d/act-notifiable-invoices/v/2026-09-18/data.csv today. The same path serves Excel, JSON, Parquet, SQLite, DuckDB, NDJSON, Arrow. A dated URL never changes, so use it when the file must stay the same.

### Can I open Notifiable invoices register in Excel?

Yes. https://publicdata.au/d/act-notifiable-invoices/v/2026-09-18/data.xlsx is a workbook with the 126,332 rows on a records sheet, the field list on a second sheet and the provenance on a third. The CSV also opens in Excel. https://publicdata.au/d/act-notifiable-invoices/v/2026-09-18/data.csv.gz is the CSV at about a tenth of the size.

### What years does Notifiable invoices register cover?

The current version covers 2015 to 2025. Each release from Procurement ACT becomes a new dated version here, and earlier versions stay online.

### How often is Notifiable invoices register updated?

Procurement ACT releases it monthly. This site checks the portal every week and adds a dated version when the file changes.

### Can I use Notifiable invoices register commercially?

Yes. CC BY 4.0 allows commercial use, redistribution and derived works as long as the attribution is kept. The attribution string is in this page's side column and inside every file.

### Is this the official source for Notifiable invoices register?

No. The publisher is Procurement ACT, Chief Minister, Treasury and Economic Development Directorate, and its page is https://www.data.act.gov.au/d/kzmf-7uhp. This site republishes the publisher's file without changing its content. The original sits beside every version as source.csv with its SHA-256, so the two can be compared.

### What is in each row?

One invoice of 25,000 dollars or more paid by an ACT Government entity, with the supplier's name and ABN, the entity that reported it, a description of the goods, services or works, the date the invoice was received, the payment date, the amount and the contract number where there is one.

### Why is the date received blank in older rows?

The publisher began recording the date an invoice was received for reporting from 1 July 2017, so most earlier invoices have none.

### How current is it?

The publisher adds each month's invoices within 21 days of the end of the month in which they were paid. This site checks the register weekly and adds a dated version when it changes.

## What this site did to the data

Cells were typed, headers were renamed to snake_case and the encoding was made UTF-8. Rows were left alone. Nothing is derived. The publisher's file is beside every version as `source.csv`.
