PISTE - Case Law Connector ​

Connector Configuration ​

The PISTE Case Law connector relies on the PISTE platform to query the Légifrance API and synchronize case law decisions (Court of Cassation, Council of State, Constitutional Council) into a Wikit Semantics data source.

💡 Fields marked ✅ are required for the connector to work.

Setup ​

Create a PISTE application ​

The connector requires a PISTE account and a registered application to obtain a client ID and client secret:

  1. Log in to PISTE
  2. Create an application and subscribe it to the required Légifrance APIs
  3. Retrieve the application's client ID and client secret
  4. Choose the corresponding environment (SANDBOX for testing, PRODUCTION for real use)

Selecting the fonds to synchronize ​

The available fonds correspond to the Légifrance case law databases:

  • JURI: Court of Cassation decisions
  • CETAT: Council of State decisions
  • CONSTIT: Constitutional Council decisions

How the Connector Works ​

The connector authenticates with PISTE via OAuth2 (clientId / clientSecret), then queries the Légifrance API to retrieve decisions from the selected fonds, applying the start year and search filters where applicable. Decisions are then transformed and synchronized into the Wikit Semantics data source.

⚠️ This connector is available on request from the Wikit team.
