Parameters

Query Parameters

fields

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.

Example

planets.name,planets.longitude

precision

integer

<= 15

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.

Example

4

Header Parameters

Idempotency-Key

string

>= 1 characters <= 255 characters /^[\x21-\x7E]+$/

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

01HXY2A7ZM0ABCDEF

Request Body ^required

Media type application/json

object

runes

Two to four Elder Futhark slugs to bind, e.g. [“algiz”, “sowilo”].

Array<string>

>= 2 items <= 4 items

Allowed values: fehu uruz thurisaz ansuz raidho kenaz gebo wunjo hagalaz nauthiz isa jera eihwaz perthro algiz sowilo tiwaz berkano ehwaz mannaz laguz ingwaz dagaz othala

intent

Without runes: a word such as protection, wealth or journey; the runes whose meanings name it are bound (up to three).

>= 3 characters <= 60 characters

Example

{
  "runes": [
    "algiz",
    "sowilo"
  ]
}
