❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a free Brreg API? Yes. Brønnøysundregistrene publishes the Enhetsregisteret as a fully open, free JSON API (data.brreg.no/enhetsregisteret) — no key, no login, no signup. This Actor is a friendly, filterable export layer on top of it: set filters in a form, run, and download a clean dataset with pagination handled and nested fields flattened. It's the easiest Brreg API alternative for non-developers.

Can I scrape brreg.no without an API or login? Yes. It reads only the official open data Brønnøysundregistrene publishes under Norway's open data licence (NLOD) — no login or circumvention. Only an Apify account is needed.

How do I export Norwegian company data to CSV or Excel? Every run writes one row per company to a dataset you can export to Excel, CSV, JSON or HTML, or pull via the Apify API. Set your filters, run, and use Export to download an .xlsx / .csv of the whole Norwegian company segment.

Does it include company emails and phone numbers? It returns the email, phone, mobile and website that each company registered (epostadresse, telefon, mobil, hjemmeside) — straight from the official registry, but not every company registers them. On broad queries the fill rate for email/phone/website is often single-digit %; filter registrertIMvaregisteret=true to surface active, trading firms far more likely to have contact details.

Can I get CEO / director names? Yes — turn on includeRoles and the Actor fetches each company's roles and adds CEO (daglig leder) and board chair (styreleder) names. This adds one request per company, so use rolesConcurrency to control speed.

How much data can I get? The Enhetsregisteret API hard-caps deep pagination at about 10,000 records per query. For larger segments, split your run by municipality, postcode or registration-date range and combine the datasets. This Actor scrapes main companies (/enheter); sub-units (/underenheter) are out of scope.

Is scraping brreg.no legal? You are reading official open data published under NLOD via a public API. Credit the source (brreg.no / Enhetsregisteret) and follow brreg's terms and applicable law for your specific use case.
