**Solution:** Hybrid intelligent scraper that combines browser automation + API
---
## 🤖 How the Intelligent Scraper Works
### Phase 1: Browser Analysis (30 seconds)
1. **Launches Chromium browser**
2. **Navigates** to virksomhet.brreg.no/nb/oppslag/enheter/{orgNr}
3. **Waits 10 seconds** for React to render
4. **Scrolls extensively** to trigger lazy loading
5. **Clicks "Vis flere" buttons** (multiple times)
6. **Takes screenshots** for debugging
7. **Extracts ALL years** from:
- `data-testid="download-aarsregnskap-{orgNr}-{year}"` attributes
- H3 headings with year numbers (2024, 2023, etc.)
8. **Returns complete list** of available years
### Phase 2: Data Fetching (3 seconds)
1. **Uses API** for latest year (100% accurate)
2. **Identifies** historical years that need manual import
3. **Generates CSV template** with latest year pre-filled
4. **Provides download link**
