Bounded contexts

The reference is grouped by bounded context: a business area with its own entities and vocabulary. Each context lists its queries, mutations and types. A type that is used in one context but defined in another shows the defining context as a badge.

Context	What it owns	Example entry points
Supply	Parts, offers, sellers, manufacturers, categories, attributes, part search and matching	supSearch, supSearchMpn, supParts, supMultiMatch
Part Family	Part families and part groups, their parameters, and search	supPartFamilySearch, supPartGroupById
Reference Design	Reference designs, their files, parts and resources	supRefDesigns, supRefDesignById
Solution Template	Solution templates and their applications, parameters, compatible evaluation kits and reference designs	supSolutionTemplateSearch, supSolutionTemplateById
Eval Kit	Evaluation kits, their devices, parameters and preview images, and the reference designs and software projects they are compatible with	supEvalKitSearch, supEvalKitById
Supply Software Project	Software projects and their compatibility with evaluation kits and solution templates	supSoftwareProjectSearch, supSoftwareProjectById
Procurement	Bill of materials analysis built on supply data	datBomParts, datBomAnalyses

Common holds the scalars, paging and error types that every context uses.

A single request can combine contexts. This one matches a BOM line to Octopart parts (Procurement) and reads each match from Supply:

query MatchBomLine {
  datBomParts(items: [{ itemRefId: "R1", mpn: "RC0603FR-0710KL", manufacturerName: "Yageo" }]) {
    itemRefId
    parts {
      confidence
      part {
        mpn
        manufacturer {
          name
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

What is not on this site

The endpoint serves more than these seven contexts. Operations that are not documented here are not part of the Octopart API as described on this site:

• Design data (des… operations) is documented in the Altium 365 API reference.
• Other domains served by the same gateway are outside the scope of this reference.

The downloadable schema.graphql contains the documented scope only.
