Lawify Legal Corpus API

2026-08-14OpenAPI 3.1

Read access to Uzbek legislation as versioned, citable provisions.

Every result carries an immutable id and the dates it was in force, so a stored citation still resolves after the article is amended.

IMPORTANT: an empty `data` array may mean the law is not yet loaded into Lawify, not that no such provision exists. `meta.coverage_note` says so when it applies, and https://lawify.uz/coverage lists what is loaded. Do not present absence of a result to an end user as absence of law.

This API returns legal information, not legal advice.

List the fields of law you can filter by

The vocabulary for the `domains` parameter, with labels in every locale the platform serves. Call this rather than hard-coding the list: `available` reflects YOUR key's scope, so an unexpected 403 on a search is explained here without a support ticket.

get/searchsearch:read

Search published legislation

Exact article number, full-text and fuzzy matching, fused. Only published provisions are searchable.

Parametrler

Atı	Qayerde	Túri	Táriyp
`q`májbúriy	query	string
`language`	query	string (uz-Latn \| uz-Cyrl \| ru)
`as_of`	query	string <date>	The law as it stood on this date. Defaults to today (Asia/Tashkent).
`limit`	query	integer
`domains`	query	array	Restrict results to these fields of law (comma-separated). Omit to search everything the key can reach. At most 8 at once. An unknown value is a 400 rather than being ignored, and a value outside the key's own domain scope is a 403 rather than being silently dropped. GET /v1/domains lists them with labels and shows which ones this key may use.

Amendments, repeals, renumberings and future-effective changes, newest first. Poll with `since` to see only what you have not seen — not a page number, which shifts under you when a new amendment lands.

DomainFilter

Present only when a domain filter was applied. `mode` reports the strength of the guarantee: `exact` means nothing outside the domains was ever retrieved; `best_effort` means results were classified by document title after retrieval, so fewer results may be returned than exist — never more.
