DONKI Notification Triage
with NASA
Poll space weather notifications and resolve SEP or MPC alerts into their structured event records.
- Poll the DONKI notification feed for the window. Each message carries a message type, a message ID, the issue time, a URL to the published notification, and the prose body a human would read.
- An SEP alert means energetic particles were detected. Pull the structured solar energetic particle records for the same window, which report the event ID, event time, and the instruments that made the detection.
- An MPC alert means the magnetopause was compressed inside geosynchronous orbit. Pull the structured magnetopause crossing records for the same window.
What you'll need to have ready
- apiKey: NASA API key from api.nasa.gov. DEMO_KEY works for low-volume testing.
- startDate: Start of the notification window (YYYY-MM-DD). DONKI defaults to 30 days prior.
- endDate: End of the notification window (YYYY-MM-DD). DONKI defaults to today.
- notificationType: Notification type to poll for. Use "all" to receive every message type.
