API endpoints

GET

/data

Hent statistikkdata (JSON-stat 2.0). Uten dimensjonsfiltre brukes nordisk default-geo (NO,SE,DK,FI) så store datasett ikke gir for stor respons. Legg på geo/time/na_item/unit for å snevre inn. Svaret bærer `total` (celler i HELE datasettet), `returned`, `offset`, `limit`, `truncated` og `hasMore`/`nextOffset` — er `truncated: true`, hent resten med `offset`.

dataset required: Eurostat dataset-kode dataset=nama_10_gdp
geo optional: Landkode(r), komma-separert. Utelates den sammen med alle andre dimensjonsfiltre, brukes nordisk default (NO,SE,DK,FI). En verdi som ikke finnes i datasettet avvises med 400 — slå opp gyldige koder på /dataset/{id}/structure geo=NO
time optional: Tidsperiode eller -intervall (enkeltår eller intervall) time=2023
limit optional: Maks antall observasjoner i svaret limit=1000
offset optional: Start-posisjon i datasettet. Bruk `nextOffset` fra forrige svar for å hente resten når `truncated: true` offset=0
