The JSON GET template is https://allemannsdata.com/wiki/api/v1/kilder/nyheter/search_news?query={query}&since={since}&until={until}&kind={kind}&lat={lat}&lon={lon}&radius_km=25&limit=25&offset=0.
Open this exact request as JSON.
| Parameter | Requirement | JSON type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
query | optional | union | Free-text term matched case-insensitively against each event's name, summary and location (client-side; the API has no text search). E.g. "brann", "Bergen", "trafikkulykke". |
since | optional | union | ISO 8601 UTC lower bound on when the event was seen, e.g. "2026-07-10T00:00:00Z". Default: 24 hours ago. |
until | optional | union | ISO 8601 UTC upper bound. Default: open-ended. |
kind | optional | union | "news" for news media only, "police" for police log (politiloggen) entries only. Default: both. |
lat | optional | union | Centre latitude (WGS84) for an area search. Give lat and lon together to only return events within radius_km of the point. |
lon | optional | union | Centre longitude (WGS84). |
radius_km | optional | number | Search radius in km around lat/lon (default 25). |
limit | optional | integer | Max events to return, 1 to 100 (default 25). |
offset | optional | integer | Skip this many matching events (for pagination). |
Generated JavaScript, Python and response structure
Use JSON when the user requests code, machine-readable data, value extraction or further computation. Use the HTML GET page to identify the correct source and verify parameters.
Example for generated JavaScript and Python
https://allemannsdata.com/wiki/api/v1/kilder/nyheter/search_news?query={query}&since={since}&until={until}&kind={kind}&lat={lat}&lon={lon}&radius_km=25&limit=25&offset=0
Replace URL placeholders and remove unused optional parameters.
JavaScript in a dashboard
const url = "https://allemannsdata.com/wiki/api/v1/kilder/nyheter/search_news?query={query}&since={since}&until={until}&kind={kind}&lat={lat}&lon={lon}&radius_km=25&limit=25&offset=0";
const response = await fetch(url);
if (!response.ok) {
const failure = await response.json();
throw new Error(`${failure.error.code}: ${failure.error.message} ${failure.suggestion}`);
}
const result = await response.json();
const data = result.data;
Python without additional packages
import json
from urllib.request import urlopen
url = "https://allemannsdata.com/wiki/api/v1/kilder/nyheter/search_news?query={query}&since={since}&until={until}&kind={kind}&lat={lat}&lon={lon}&radius_km=25&limit=25&offset=0"
with urlopen(url) as response:
result = json.load(response)
data = result["data"]

- More results exist upstream, but this source cannot be paged further through the gateway (limit+offset must stay within the first 100 results). Narrow the query with filters to reach the rest.

How an AI agent should use this page
Ground rule: Navigate with HTML GET links to keep explanations and relationships. Use the page's JSON alternative only when concrete values must be extracted, compared or computed.
How to use the search_news lookup
- Replace the placeholders in the HTML GET template; remove optional parameters you do not need.
- Check types, units, limits and ID formats in the parameter table.
- Follow linked results to canonical pages before combining sources.
Misreading to avoid: An empty list means "no results for this lookup". An error message or unavailable source does not mean the data does not exist.
Source-specific next step
Go to the source page for other operations. Use the JSON template only after the HTML result shows that the parameters and source are correct.
