How do I get Bengali output from any endpoint?
Add &lang=bn to any API request. All 116 endpoints support the lang parameter. The response JSON will return labels, descriptions, sign names, planet names, nakshatra names, and interpretive text in Bengali script. No separate endpoint needed — it is a single parameter on every existing call.
Is the Bengali script native or transliterated?
The API returns native Bengali script (e.g. "মেষ", "মঙ্গল", "অশ্বিনী") for all Bengali responses. Romanised transliteration is not provided by default. If your app requires transliteration, you can apply a client-side library after receiving the response.
Which Indian languages are supported beyond Bengali?
VedIntel™ AstroAPI supports 27 languages including Hindi (lang=hi), Tamil (lang=ta), Telugu (lang=te), Kannada (lang=kn), Malayalam (lang=ml), Marathi (lang=mr), Gujarati (lang=gu), Punjabi (lang=pa), Odia (lang=or), Sanskrit (lang=sa), and 14 international languages. Bengali (lang=bn) serves developers building for West Bengal and Bangladesh audiences.
Can I use this API to build a Bengali Jyotish mobile app?
Yes. The API is designed for exactly this use case. Bengali-speaking users represent one of the largest regional markets for astrology apps, spanning West Bengal, Bangladesh, and the global Bengali diaspora. Pass lang=bn on every call and your app receives all content natively in Bengali — no translation layer required on your side. The free plan (500 calls/month) is enough to build and test your full app before going to market.
