# List current legal documents

> Returns the revision of every legal document that is currently in force.

An index, not a bundle: each entry identifies a document and the
revision in force, WITHOUT the document text. `content` is omitted
here — fetch `GET /legal/documents/{document_key}` for the one document
you are going to display. Inlining every document would make this
response carry the entire corpus on every call.

Unauthenticated: these are public documents, and integrators need them
before a customer relationship exists.

No cache headers are set, and this list is not safe to cache
indefinitely: it names whichever revision is currently IN FORCE, and
that changes when a new one is published. A specific `(key, version)`
from `GET /legal/documents/{key}` is a different matter — revisions are
immutable, so once fetched its text can be cached for as long as you
like.



## OpenAPI

````yaml /openapi.yaml get /legal/documents
openapi: 3.0.3
info:
  title: Dakota Platform API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: >-
    Combined API specification for Dakota Platform services:

    - Issuance API: Asset minting and burning operations

    - Onboarding API: Know Your Business/Customer verification

    - On/Off Ramp API: Managing on-ramp and off-ramp accounts

    - Recipients API: Managing destinations for KYB'd entities

    - Transactions API: Viewing transaction history across platform operations


    ## Authentication and API Headers


    All API endpoints require the following headers:


    - `x-idempotency-key`: Required for all POST endpoints to ensure request
    idempotency

    - `x-api-key`: Required for authentication across all endpoints


    Note: On /applications endpoints you need a token for authentication instead
    of a x-api-key

    - `x-application-token`: Required for authentication on public /applications
    endpoints (alternative to `x-api-key` where documented)



    ## Rate Limits


    Requests are rate limited per API key. Every response includes the following
    headers:


    | Header | Description |

    | --- | --- |

    | `X-RateLimit-Limit` | Maximum requests allowed in the current one-minute
    window. |

    | `X-RateLimit-Remaining` | Requests remaining in the current window. |

    | `X-RateLimit-Reset` | Absolute Unix timestamp (seconds since epoch) when
    the current rate-limit window resets. |


    When a request is throttled (`429`), responses also include `Retry-After`
    with seconds to wait before retrying.

      Trigger sandbox-only simulation endpoints for safe end-to-end integration

      (`https://api.platform.sandbox.dakota.xyz`) also accepts a family of
      `X-Sandbox-*` request headers on most write endpoints (`Customers`,
      `Accounts`, `Transactions`, simulate endpoints) that let integrators drive
      deterministic failure modes — pick a preset via `X-Sandbox-Scenario`, or
      compose a custom one with
      `X-Sandbox-Error-Step`/`X-Sandbox-Error-Status`/`X-Sandbox-Error-Message`.
      `X-Sandbox-Instant-Completion` collapses async flows to a single
      synchronous step, and `X-Sandbox-Skip-Auto-Approval` keeps newly created
      KYB applications in `pending` for manual-review testing. All `X-Sandbox-*`
      headers are ignored in production.

        One published revision of a legal document.

        A revision is IMMUTABLE: `version` identifies an exact text, and that
        text never changes once published. Correcting a document produces a new
        revision rather than editing an existing one, so an acceptance recorded
        against a version always refers to the same words.
