## Orchestration V2 API

### Endpoint

**V2 Endpoint:** `POST {{deployment_url}}/v2/completion`

### V1 to V2 Migration

If migrating from V1 to V2:

1. Update endpoint from `/completion` to `/v2/completion`
2. Modify payload structure to use `config.modules` format
3. Test with existing orchestration configurations

### V2 Request Structure

```json
{
  "config": {
    "modules": {
      "prompt_templating": { /* template config */ },
      "llm": { /* model config */ },
      "grounding": { /* optional */ },
      "filtering": { /* optional */ },
      "masking": { /* optional */ },
      "translation": { /* optional */ }
    }
  },
  "placeholder_values": {
    "variable_name": "value"
  }
}
```

### Key V2 Changes

| Aspect | V1 | V2 |
|--------|----|----|
| Endpoint | `/completion` | `/v2/completion` |
| Module structure | `module_configurations` | `config.modules` |
| Embeddings | Not available | `POST /v2/embeddings` |

---

## Module Execution Order

The orchestration pipeline executes modules in this fixed order:

```
1. Grounding → 2. Templating → 3. Input Translation → 4. Data Masking →
5. Input Filtering → 6. Model Configuration → 7. Output Filtering → 8. Output Translation
```

Only **Templating** and **Model Configuration** are mandatory.

---

## 1. Templating Module (Mandatory)

Compose prompts with placeholders that get populated during inference.

### Configuration

```json
{
  "templating_module_config": {
    "template": [
      {"role": "system", "content": "You are {{?assistant_type}}"},
      {"role": "user", "content": "{{?user_message}}"}
    ],
    "defaults": {
      "assistant_type": "a helpful assistant"
    }
  }
}
```

### Placeholder Syntax

| Syntax | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| `{{?variable}}` | Required placeholder (must be provided) |
| `{{?variable}}` with defaults | Optional if default provided |
| `{{$grounding_output}}` | System variable from grounding module |

### Message Roles

- `system`: System instructions
- `user`: User input
- `assistant`: Assistant responses (for multi-turn)
- `tool`: Tool call results

---

## 2. Model Configuration Module (Mandatory)
