Sora API is one of 4 APIs that [Swift Navigation](https://apis.io/providers/swift-navigation/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include gRPC, Protobuf, Location, and Time Series. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

gRPC service for collecting, storing and analysing device location time series. DeviceService (5 RPCs) takes device state and events from the field; AppService (29 RPCs) queries and streams that data and manages projects, devices, layers, annotators, alertors and event generators. The complete contract is published as a public Buf Schema Registry module. The endpoint is no longer reachable — see lifecycle/ — but the contract remains public.
