Authorizations
Section titled “Authorizations ”Parameters
Section titled “ Parameters ”Query Parameters
Section titled “Query Parameters ”Comma-separated dotted paths, relative to data, to keep in the response. A path is applied to every element of an array, so planets.name means the name of each planet. Paths that match nothing come back in _fields_unmatched; a list where nothing matches at all is a 400, because an empty object would be a confident wrong answer.
Example
planets.name,planets.longitudeRound every non-integer number in the response to this many decimal places. Integers are left alone, because an id is not a measurement. Ecliptic longitudes ship with fourteen decimals by default; 2 is about a tenth of an arcminute.
Example
4Header Parameters
Section titled “Header Parameters ”Unique per logical operation, kept across retries. For 24 hours from the first request, a repeat with the same key, method, path, body and query string returns the stored response with Idempotent-Replayed: true and costs 0 credits. The same key with a different body or query string is a 409 IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_REUSED; a repeat while the first is still running is a 409 IDEMPOTENCY_IN_PROGRESS. Only 2xx responses are kept. See /idempotency/.
Example
01HXY2A7ZM0ABCDEFRequest Body required
Section titled “Request Body required ”object
King Wen number.
Six line values, bottom to top: 6 old yin (changing), 7 young yang, 8 young yin, 9 old yang (changing). Send the coins you threw yourself.
