Starlink is the low-Earth-orbit satellite internet constellation operated by SpaceX from Hawthorne, California, delivering broadband and non-terrestrial connectivity to residential, business, maritime, aviation, and government customers in the United States and roughly a hundred other markets. In the telecom value chain Starlink is an access-network operator that sells connectivity directly to end customers and wholesales capacity to airlines, shipping lines, and mobile network operators, rather than a CPaaS aggregator or a GSMA-affiliated mobile network operator. Its API posture is unusually open for an access provider and unusually narrow in scope. The Starlink Public API V2 is fully documented in public at starlink.readme.io, its OpenAPI 3.0.4 description is downloadable anonymously from starlink.com with no login, and SpaceX publishes an official gRPC protobuf for the local device API on GitHub. But the API is operational rather than developer-product, covering account, service line, user terminal, router, billing, and telemetry management, and credentials are gated behind an enterprise or business Starlink account whose admin must mint a V2 service account. No CAMARA implementation, no GSMA Open Gateway participation, and no TM Forum Open API conformance was found anywhere in Starlink's published material.
Starlink publishes 4 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Public API V2, Telemetry Stream API, Mobile Data API, and 1 more. Tagged areas include Telecommunications, United States, Satellite, Broadband, and Non-Terrestrial Networks.
The Starlink catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.
Starlink’s developer surface includes documentation, getting-started guide, API reference, authentication, changelog, sandbox, developer portal, and 41 more developer resources.

description: A low-latency JSON over HTTP streaming API for device telemetry, consumed by repeated small-batch POST requests
with batchSize and maxLingerMs parameters. POST /public/v2/telemetry/stream returns compact column-indexed telemetry for
every device on the account, and POST /public/v2/telemetry/query returns the most recent typed values per device. Active
device alerts ride in the same response as enum values resolved against response metadata. These two operations are documented
in the API reference but are not present in the downloadable V2 OpenAPI.

description: SpaceX's officially supported local gRPC API on Starlink hardware, defined in protobuf and published verbatim

answered by WifiGetDiagnosticsResponse or DishGetDiagnosticsResponse. The WiFi router serves it on 192.168.1.1 port 9000
and the user terminal on 192.168.100.1 port 9200. There is no authentication because it is reachable only on the local
network.

event for conjunction events, object for satellites, operator, and trajectory - with paths such as GET /v1/object. Client
authentication is mTLS using a client certificate signed by SpaceX after email onboarding, access is limited to satellite
operators, and the OpenAPI source file itself is not published for download.
