Typical Process (a.k.a. Happy Path)#

1.

Call Create Ephemeral Operations

Note

This endpoint includes an optional property called callbackUrl. Airspace Link will dispatch a call to the url when changes occur to the status of any authorization associated with the operation. In order to distinguish between different operations, your callbackUrl may include a unique ID which represents your system's internal identifier. Common patterns may include https://myapp.com/aslCallback/{ID} or https://myapp.com/aslCallback?id={ID}. The url may be structured in any way meaningful to your organization.

Sample callback response (only if authorized):

{ 
    authId: string,
    authStatus: string,
    authStatusDate: string, 
    startTime: string,
    duration: number,
    altitude: number,
    atc: string
}

For a list of allowed values for authStatus see the status property definition in the response for Get Authorization

2.

A temporary operation is created.

3.

The response contains a claim URL in the form of https://portal.airspacelink.com/plan/operations/{id}/claim

4.

This URL may be used to access the operation within the AirHub Portal application.
