Accessing API and MCP documentation

Find the MCP URL, API base URL, and Swagger reference for your Legatics instance

Legatics provides an API and MCP server for connecting integrations and AI assistants to your live matter data. This article covers the URLs you'll need and where to find the browsable API reference.

Note: This article is for IT teams, system admins, and developers setting up an API, MCP, or AI assistant integration with Legatics.

Your MCP URL and API base URL

These are the addresses your integration or AI assistant connects to. You'll need these alongside your connected app credentials when setting up an integration - see Create and manage connected apps for how to generate a Client ID and Client Secret.

Each Legatics instance has its own MCP URL and API base URL. If your firm is on one of our standard regional instances, use the corresponding URLs below:

Region

MCP URL

API base URL

Europe

https://mcp.eu1.legatics.com

https://api.eu1.legatics.com

United States

https://mcp.us1.legatics.com

https://api.us1.legatics.com

Australia

https://mcp.au1.legatics.com

https://api.au1.legatics.com

Note: If your firm is on a dedicated or private instance, your URLs will differ from the ones listed above. Contact your Legatics account team to confirm the correct values for your instance.

Viewing the API reference

Each instance also has a browsable API reference (Swagger/OpenAPI documentation), where you can explore available endpoints, request and response formats, and authentication requirements before building an integration. This is a read-only reference page and doesn't require you to log in.

United States

Tip: If you're building an integration, the API reference is a good place to start - it shows you the full range of what's available before you need any credentials.

FAQ

Which URL do I need for my AI assistant?

Your MCP URL. See Using AI assistants with Legatics for the full setup process.

Which URL do I need to build an API integration?

Your API base URL - this is what your integration makes requests to. The API reference (Swagger docs) is a good starting point to see what's available before you start building.

What's the difference between the API base URL and the API reference?

The API base URL is the address your integration connects to and sends requests to. The API reference (Swagger docs) is a separate, browsable page for exploring the API's structure - endpoints, parameters, and responses - without needing to write any code or authenticate first.

I'm on a private or dedicated instance. Where do I find my URLs?

Contact your Legatics account team - they'll confirm the correct MCP URL, API base URL, and API reference link for your specific instance.
