This function will download all geographical code changes from
SSB via API except enumeration areas (grunnkrets) between 1980 to
2001. The code change can be found in the dataset GrunnkretsBefore2002.
Basically the downloaded data are those you can see directly
here, for
example if you looking for code change in municipality (kommune).
The advantage of using get_change or
KLASS is
that you can get all code changes for several years at once.
