POST

https://api.satik.in/v1/digipin/encode

Use a server-side Bearer API key. Authentication guide →

Sample request (cURL)

Set the Postman variable SATIK_TEST_KEY to a test key from your workspace.

curl --request POST 'https://api.satik.in/v1/digipin/encode' \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer {{SATIK_TEST_KEY}}' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{
  "lat": 28.6224708,
  "lng": 77.2131656
}'

Converts sample coordinates into a DIGIPIN locally without calling Google. Coordinates must be within the supported India bounds. A location code alone does not verify an address.

In Postman, choose Import and paste this cURL command. These double-brace variables are resolved by Postman; for a terminal request, replace them with actual values. For local testing, replace https://api.satik.in/v1 with http://localhost:3001/api/v1, keeping the endpoint path.
