Performance Simulation API is a part of the Platform API family. The API is a pair of endpoints and a webhook that enable you to kick off a performance simulation for a given design, check on the simulation job status, and get notified when the status changes. You can access annual and hourly energy production for the system produced by the simulation using the Design Summary API.
Irradiance Analysis API is a part of the Platform API family. The API is a pair of endpoints and a webhook that enable you to kick off panel irradiance analysis for a given design, check on the analysis job status, and get notified when the status changes. You can access shading data (monthly SAP and annual TSRF) on a per-array basis produced by the irradiance analysis using the Design Summary API.
With auto_accept attribute in Create Design Request API endpoint, you can bypass the design acceptance step and move the design directly from "completed" to "accepted" state on design completion.
Financing records returned by List Financings endpoint now include "True/False" flag to indicate which financing was selected in Sales Mode.

If you're using Aurora's contract manager feature, you can access a list of outstanding agreements, status, and a link to completed agreements via Agreements API. Note that the contract manager is currently only available as a part of Sales Mode.
Previously, Aurora would only populate arrays in the Design Summary with panels connected to an inverter (micro or string). Now, we add all panels, even those unattached to an inverter, along with shading data if available.
You and your developers need up-to-date, accurate, and easily accessible API documentation to better utilize our APIs. Our new developer page, docs.aurorasolar.com, achieves exactly that by:
When a 3D site model is completed (manually or via 3DMS), you can use AutoDesigner API to create a system design automatically and be notified when the AutoDesigner task is complete via a webhook. Now, as an alternative to the MaxFit option, you can specify the desired energy production target. This will return a fully strung system using the component(s) specified in the request.
Duplicated 3DMS requests sent from the same tenant will now immediately return an error state. The error will be sent via API as a response to the design request API call. A duplicate is defined as a design request with coordinates that match those of an outstanding request from the same tenant that is either actively being worked on by a designer or is in a designer queue.
Your developers can now start making calls to the Aurora API in just a few keystrokes using bearer token authentication.
