# SatLoc API Integration Summary

## Overview

This document summarizes the updates made to the partner integration system based on the official SatLoc Technical Document - Vendor API Services.

## Key Changes from Generic Implementation

### 1. Updated Base URL
- **Previous**: `https://api.satloc.com/v1` (generic assumption)
- **Actual**: `https://www.satloccloud.com/api/Satloc`

### 2. Authentication Method
- **Previous**: Bearer token-based authentication
- **Actual**: Query parameter authentication using email/password
  ```
  GET /AuthenticateAPIUser?userLogin=vendor%40myk.com&password=Home4663%23
  ```

### 3. Response Format
All SatLoc APIs return responses in this standardized format:
```json
{
  "IsSuccess": true/false,
  "ErrorMessage": null/"error description", 
  "Result": {...} // Actual response data
}
```

### 4. Actual API Endpoints

| Operation | Endpoint | Method | Description |
|-----------|----------|---------|-------------|
| Health Check | `/IsAlive` | GET | Service availability check |
| Authentication | `/AuthenticateAPIUser` | GET | User authentication |
| Get Aircraft | `/GetAircraftList` | GET | Retrieve aircraft for company |
| Get Flight Logs | `/GetAircraftLogs` | GET | Get flight logs for aircraft |
| Get Log Data | `/GetAircraftLogData` | GET | Download actual log file |
| Upload Job | `/UploadJobData` | POST | Upload job data (multipart) |

### 5. Required Parameters

#### Authentication Response
```json
{
  "IsSuccess": true,
  "ErrorMessage": null,
  "Result": {
    "UserId": "a2991888-5c7f-4101-8e0d-0a390c26720c",
    "CompanyId": "36c0f342-e4e2-4fcb-b219-9cd1fad2c1ff", 
    "Token": "jwt_token_here",
    "ExpiresAt": "2025-07-19T10:30:00Z"
  }
}
```

#### Aircraft List Response
```json
{
  "IsSuccess": true,
  "ErrorMessage": null,
  "Result": [
    {
      "AircraftId": "23bee7aa-c949-4089-854a-2ab58b40294f",
      "AircraftName": "Satloc Drone 1",
      "AircraftType": "Multirotor",
      "Status": "Available",
      "LastSeen": "2025-07-18T08:30:00Z"
    }
  ]
}
```

## Implementation Updates

### 1. Environment Variables
```bash
# SatLoc Configuration (Customer-specific credentials stored in PartnerSystemUser records)
SATLOC_API_ENDPOINT=https://www.satloccloud.com/api/Satloc
SATLOC_API_TIMEOUT=30000
SATLOC_RETRY_ATTEMPTS=3
SATLOC_RATE_LIMIT=5
```

### 2. Updated SatlocService Class
The `SatlocService` implementation has been updated to:
- Use query parameter authentication instead of bearer tokens
- Handle the SatLoc-specific response format (`IsSuccess`, `ErrorMessage`, `Result`)
- Use proper endpoint paths from the technical documentation
- Support multipart form data for job uploads
- Handle UserId and CompanyId parameters for API calls

### 3. Rate Limiting
- **Requests per second**: 5 (reduced from assumed 10)
- **Burst limit**: 20 requests in 10-second window
- **Daily limit**: 10,000 requests per user

### 4. Error Handling
Updated error handling to work with SatLoc's response format:
```javascript
if (response.data.IsSuccess) {
  return response.data.Result;
} else {
  throw new Error(response.data.ErrorMessage);
}
```

## Files Updated

1. **`docs/SATLOC_API_SPECIFICATION.md`** - New file with complete SatLoc API documentation
2. **`docs/IMPLEMENTATION_GUIDE.md`** - Updated SatlocService implementation
3. **`docs/MONITORING_GUIDE.md`** - New monitoring and observability guide

## Testing Considerations

### 1. Mock Data Updates
Test mocks need to use the SatLoc response format:
```javascript
// OLD format
const mockResponse = { jobId: 'test_123', status: 'uploaded' };

// NEW SatLoc format
const mockResponse = {
  IsSuccess: true,
  ErrorMessage: null,
  Result: { JobId: 'test_123', Status: 'Uploaded' }
};
```

### 2. Authentication Testing
Test authentication flow with email/password instead of token:
```javascript
it('should authenticate with email/password', async () => {
  const mockAuth = {
    IsSuccess: true,
    Result: {
      UserId: 'user_123',
      CompanyId: 'company_456',
      Token: 'jwt_token'
    }
  };
  // Test implementation...
});
```

## Migration Strategy

### Phase 1: Update Implementation
1. ✅ Update SatlocService class with actual API endpoints
2. ✅ Modify authentication to use query parameters
3. ✅ Update response handling for SatLoc format
4. ✅ Add proper error handling

### Phase 2: Environment & Configuration
1. Update environment variables in deployment
2. Update partner configuration in database
3. Test authentication with real SatLoc credentials

### Phase 3: Testing & Validation
1. Update unit tests with new API format
2. Run integration tests against SatLoc staging environment
3. Validate data conversion and processing

### Phase 4: Deployment
1. Deploy updated code to staging
2. Perform end-to-end testing
3. Deploy to production with monitoring

## Next Steps

1. **Obtain SatLoc Credentials**: Get actual vendor credentials from SatLoc
2. **Test Integration**: Run integration tests against SatLoc staging API
3. **Data Format Analysis**: Analyze actual flight log data format for parsing
4. **Performance Testing**: Validate rate limits and response times
5. **Monitoring Setup**: Implement monitoring based on updated specifications

## Notes

- The SatLoc API uses a different authentication pattern than initially assumed
- All APIs require userId and companyId parameters obtained from authentication
- Job upload requires multipart form data instead of JSON
- Flight data is retrieved through aircraft logs rather than direct job data endpoints
- Error responses include both IsSuccess flag and ErrorMessage field

This updated integration provides a more accurate implementation based on the actual SatLoc API specifications rather than generic assumptions.
