# Essential Dignities

`GET https://api.astroway.info/v1/reference/dignities`

Classical (Ptolemy / Lilly) essential dignities table: domicile, exaltation degree, day/night/common triplicity rulers, detriment and fall, plus Lilly's scoring weights.

Group: Reference. Auth: none, this endpoint answers without a key. Operation ID: `reference_dignities_get`.

## 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. |

## Responses

| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
