Parameters

Query Parameters

graha required

string

Allowed values: sun moon mars mercury jupiter venus saturn rahu ketu

Example

saturn

The graha, lowercase English name.

type

string

Example

mantra,puja

Remedy type, or a comma list of them: mantra, puja, deity, yantra, rudraksha, fasting, charity, colour, gemstone, lal-kitab. All types when omitted.

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.
