# Order API

The Order API covers everything related to orders placed on the Spexi platform. An order represents a request for drone-captured products (images, panoramas, or orthomosaics) for one or more areas of interest, tracked from submission through delivery.

Orders are grouped by type:

* [**Tasking Orders**](/api-reference/order-api/tasking-api.md) - request new drone captures for an area of interest and track orders through delivery
* **Archived Orders** *(coming soon)* - access orders fulfilled from Spexi's existing imagery archive rather than a new capture

### Endpoints

* [List Images in Order](/api-reference/order-api/list-images-order.md) - retrieve the images associated with a given order, regardless of order type

### Authentication

All order endpoints accept an API key via the `x-api-key` header or the `api_key` query parameter.
