List supported satellites

Overview

The List supported satellites endpoint retrieves all satellites that are supported on Aurora. A successful request returns a list of satellites along with details like id, name, collections, bands etc. Authentication via API key is mandatory.

  • Method: GET

  • URL: /v0/satellites

  • Operation: Retrieve a list of supported satellites

  • Authentication Required: Yes

Authorization

You need the api key which you can get from the API tab in Workspace Settings. The api key is required in almost all the commands

Authorization: <YOUR_API_KEY>

Path Parameters

You don't require any path parameters for this command.

Response

Successful Response – 200 OK

A 200 OK response from the List supported satellites endpoint indicates that the request was successful. It returns a list of satellites supported on Aurora with following fields:

FieldTypeDescription
idstringUnique identifier for the Satellite.
namestringName of the satellite.
collectionsstringDifferent set of collections available for a satellite( e.g., ["l2a", "l1c"]).
bandsarrayList of EO bands associated with the satellite (e.g., ["B01", "B02"]).

Below is the complete JSON response for listing all satellites using the List supported satellites endpoint.
