What this does not say

Quoted verbatim from the section’s warnings field, exactly as the API returns it. They are not translated: a translation would show something other than what your response actually contains.

Municipality-level annual counts, not this property's fire history or risk. residential_fires is boligbranner; building_fires is bygningsbranner. Deaths and injuries are not provided by this source and are absent, not zero. year is the statistical period; updated_at is successful import time, not source publication time, and remains unknown for unrefreshed legacy rows.

Fields

3 of 8 fields are value fields — the ones that decide whether a record actually says anything. The rest are context: identifiers, codes and timestamps. Fields marked “open” return values to anonymous callers; the rest require a key.
