From topic to provision

If you do not know the marker, use search_provisions first. Use the returned provision’s url as a precise citation.

For acts without individually addressable provisions, use get_document for the wording and search_provisions for passages in the continuous text. status: fetching asks you to repeat the same call after retry_after_seconds.
