A Simple API for Web3 Data

It should be easy to query Web3 data, all of it, anything on the blockchain. Despite the blockchain's openness, it's still extremely hard to decode and use blockchain data.

Introducing a Simple API for Web3 Data

Today we're releasing the Alpha version of a new API for accessing data on the Ethereum blockchain.

1. Access a fully decoded transaction including logs and function information

GET https://api.sort.xyz/v0/transaction/0x4a4101abb79d0e6d8d09dac5f1d2312ef713f20b1101eefcd395a040985eda28

1. Access the latest transactions for a contract address

POST https://api.sort.xyz/v0/transaction/{  "contract_address" : "0xbc4ca0eda7647a8ab7c2061c2e118a18a936f13d",  "limit": 10}

1. Access NFT data for a contract

POST https://api.sort.xyz/v0/transaction/{  "nft_address" : "0xbc4ca0eda7647a8ab7c2061c2e118a18a936f13d",  "nft_event" : "sale",  "limit": 10}

1. Aggregate coin sales data to power a real-time sales chart

POST https://api.sort.xyz/v0/transaction/{  "contract_address" : "0xd9e1ce17f2641f24ae83637ab66a2cca9c378b9f",  "coin_buy" : "0x0ab87046fBb341D058F17CBC4c1133F25a20a52f",  "aggregate" : { "op" : "sum", "by" : "hour", "field" : "coin_transaction.from.amount_shifted" },  "limit" : 24,  "timestamp" : "gte:2021-03-22"}

An Open API

The Sort Analytics API is free, rate limits and other information are listed here.

As of April 13, 2022, the API is considered version 0 (Public Alpha), we are still finding and fixing occasional bugs. Please relay any feedback to the team via our public discord.

Powering Dashboards, Applications, Charts, and More

Use the API to power anything in your application that needs Web3 data. Since the API is open and doesn't require API keys, no server side code is needed, all API calls can be made directly by the client.
