Selected parameters

The parameter "type" is the type of subdivision. Currently, the following types are supported:

"metro" for métropole
"CU" for communauté urbaine
"CA" for communauté d'agglomération
"CC" for communauté de communes
"arr" for arrondissement
"arrmun" for municipal arrondissement
"canton" for canton

The parameters "region" and "department" are only needed for subdivisions that lie in more than one department (for instance Aix-Marseille-Provence Metropolis). For arrondissements and cantons, use the parameter "INSEE" (codes can be found at the INSEE website). For intercommunalities do not use the INSEE code, but fill in the department number (for instance "29" for Finistère) in the "INSEE" field.
