      one of exact, approximate, unknown · default "exact"

    • place Coordinates or object or object required

      Coordinates, a place_id from /v1/places/search, or a free-text query. A vague query returns 422 place_ambiguous with candidates; the API never guesses.

      1. Coordinates
        Fields
        • latitude number required

          ≥ -90 · ≤ 90

  • theme string

    one of light, dark · default "light"

  • options Options
    • ayanamsa string

      Each system is its Swiss Ephemeris definition (a constant offset from Lahiri). Applies to chart operations; KP operations always use KP-New and the personal muhurat stays Lahiri. meta.ayanamsa names the system used.

    • house_system string

      one of whole_sign · default "whole_sign"
