Kundli API
Kundli Calculator API
Calculate complete Vedic birth chart (Janam Kundli, natal chart) with all 9 planetary positions (Sun through Ketu) plus Ascendant (Lagna). Kundli calculator API for astrology apps, matrimonial sites. Returns accurate graha positions grouped by zodiac signs (rashis) with nakshatra details and pada. Perfect for kundli generation, horoscope matching, and Vedic astrology software integration.
Location first, chart second
The Kundli API needs latitude, longitude, and timezone. Never ask users to type coordinates. Resolve a city with the Location endpoint first, then feed the result into the request. Timezone accepts a decimal offset or an IANA name.
1 Resolve the location
curl "https://roxyapi.com/api/v2/location/search?q=New York" \
-H "X-API-Key: YOUR_KEY"
# -> cities[0]: { latitude, longitude, timezone: "America/New_York" }2 Call the Kundli endpoint
# feed latitude, longitude and timezone from step 1

Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| langquery | string enum | Response language (ISO 639-1). Supported: en, tr, de, es, hi, pt, fr, ru. Defaults to en. Languages without translations yet return English. Default en. |
Request body
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| date* | string (date) | Birth date in YYYY-MM-DD format. Date determines planetary positions and nakshatra calculations for Vedic kundli (janam patri). Accurate birth date is essential for dashas, yoga calculations, and divisional charts (vargas). |
| time* | string (time) | Birth time in 24-hour HH:MM:SS format. Time is CRITICAL for Lagna (Ascendant) calculation and house divisions. It changes every two hours roughly. Even minutes matter for accurate nakshatra pada and divisional chart (D9, D10) calculations. Without exact time, Lagna and house-based predictions will be incorrect. |
| latitude* | number | Birth location latitude in decimal degrees. Location determines local sidereal time for Lagna calculation and affects bhava (house) cusps. Example: Delhi 28.6139, Mumbai 19.0760, Kathmandu 27.7172. |
| longitude* | number | Birth location longitude in decimal degrees. Affects local time calculations and ayanamsha adjustments. Example: Delhi 77.2090, Mumbai 72.8777, Kathmandu 85.3240. |
| timezone | number or string | Timezone: IANA name (e.g. "America/New_York", "Europe/London") OR decimal hours from UTC (e.g. -5 for EST, 1 for CET). IANA strings are resolved to the DST-correct offset for the given date, so you can pass `cities[0].timezone` from /location/search directly. Defaults to 5.5. |
