Set LEGALIZE_API_KEY in your environment. Every SDK reads it automatically — no argument needed.

from legalize import Legalize client = Legalize() # Search the Spanish civil code, auto-paginated for law in client.laws.search_iter("es", q="propiedad intelectual"): print(law.id, law.title)

import { Legalize } from "@legalize-dev/sdk"; const client = new Legalize(); // Search the Spanish civil code, auto-paginated for await (const law of client.laws.searchIter("es", "propiedad intelectual")) { console.log(law.id, law.title); }

Why this API is different

Time-travel

Every law has a git history

Each reform is a commit, and you can fetch the text of any law at any past revision with one call. No other legal API ships this.

Structured

Markdown + typed metadata

Body as clean Markdown, frontmatter with jurisdiction, status, dates, reform IDs. Drop into a RAG pipeline without scraping HTML.

Cross-border

One API, 31 countries

ES, FR, DE, AT, SE, LV, LT, PT, UY, CL, and counting. Same schema, same Bearer token. No per-country onboarding.

Webhooks

React in real time

Register an endpoint, receive signed deliveries when a law is created, updated or repealed. SDK verifies the HMAC for you.
