Search data.norge.no (the Norwegian national data catalogue) for datasets by keyword or topic. Returns matching datasets with their id, publisher, themes and a short description. Norwegian search terms usually match best. Use a returned id with get_dataset to get download links.

Fetch full metadata for one dataset by its id (from search_datasets), including every distribution with its download/access URL, format and licence. This is how you find where to actually get the data.

Search data.norge.no for APIs / data services — live endpoints serving Norwegian public data (e.g. Statistics Norway, Kartverket, Brønnøysundregistrene). Use get_api with a returned id for endpoint URLs.

Fetch full metadata for one API / data service by its id (from search_apis), including its endpoint URL(s) and a link to the machine-readable description (e.g. OpenAPI spec).

Download the actual data from a distribution's downloadURL or accessURL (from get_dataset), an API endpoint (from get_api), or any http(s) data URL. Returns the content for text formats (CSV, JSON, XML, GeoJSON); large responses are truncated and binary content returns metadata only. Use this to retrieve the data itself, not just its catalogue metadata.
