Authentication Options

API Key

Best for basic integrations with minimal security requirements. Use in headers:

curl
curl "https://api.sptort-orb.com/v3/orbits/calculate" \\ -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

OAuth 2.0

Recommended for production and enterprise use with secure credentials flow:

bash
POST /oauth/token { "client_id": "your_id", "client_secret": "your_secret", "grant_type": "client_credentials" }
See OAuth2 documentation →

Supported Integrations

Node.js SDK

const sdk = require('@sptort-orb-sdk');
const client = new sdk.OrbitalClient();

client.calculatePosition({
  coords: [37.7749,-122.4194],
  timestamp: new Date().toISOString()
})

Python SDK

from sptort_orb import Orbital

client = Orbital()
result = client.position(planet='Earth', observer='JPL')

Best Practices for Integration

Use Background Workers

For real-time systems, process SPTORT.ORB data using background workers to avoid blocking main thread.

🚀 Scales to 1000+ requests/seconds

Caching Strategy

Use local caching for static data like planetary models to reduce API calls.

☁️ Reduces bandwidth usage by 40-60%

Error Handling

Implement exponential backoff for API timeouts and implement retry logic for 429s.

⚠️ Prevents cascading failures

Monitoring

Track response times and error rates. Set up alerts for any API status changes.
