The current, active SAM opportunities data (as of the night before) are available here: https://sam.gov/api/prod/fileextractservices/v1/api/download/Contract%20Opportunities/datagov/ContractOpportunitiesFullCSV.csv

The good news is that it's all of the opportunities, including the full text of the descriptions, and doesn't require pagination. The bad news is that it's not as data dense. Maybe there's a way to do both?
