EU Transparency Register

Name: EU Transparency Register
License: CC-BY-4.0

The EU's official open register of all registered lobbyists, law firms, think tanks and NGOs that influence the EU institutions. Contains organisation names, home countries, categories (I-VI), EU funding, estimated lobbying costs, main interests and accredited representatives. Built on the monthly XML dump from the European Commission — CC-BY-4.0, no auth. The dump is not loaded in this environment, and no ingest has been built, so the data routes respond 503 not_configured.

EU Transparency Register-dataene er ikke lastet inn i dette miljøet, og det finnes ingen last som henter dem (målt 2026-08-30). Tilstanden løses derfor verken av en API-nøkkel eller en env-variabel. Handleren svarer 503 not_configured, og 503-kroppen bærer feltet backfill.jobExists som maskinlesbar diskriminant.
