# Lo Shu grid

`POST https://api.astroway.info/v1/numerology/lo-shu-grid`

The 3x3 Lo Shu square (4 9 2 / 3 5 7 / 8 1 6) filled from the digits of a birth date, with the driver (moolank) and conductor (bhagyank) added as Indian practice does (each can be switched off): present, missing and repeated numbers, the six planes (mental, emotional, practical, thought, will, action) and the arrows, the full and empty lines of the square.

Group: Numerology: Indian. Auth: `X-Api-Key` header. Operation ID: `numerology_lo-shu-grid`.

## Parameters

| Name | In | Required | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| `fields` | query | no | string | 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. |
| `precision` | query | no | integer | Round 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. |
| `Idempotency-Key` | header | no | string | 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/. |

## Request body

| `addDriver` | boolean | no | Add the driver (moolank) to the grid. Default true. |
| `addConductor` | boolean | no | Add the conductor (bhagyank) to the grid. Default true. |
