⚙️Getting Started: REST API

The following is an example of how to access Nansen Query API via the Postman API Platform. The process might be different, depending on your network environment and software used. Please consult your IT administrator for access issues.

Nansen Query API allows users to retrieve real-time blockchain data via REST APIs.

To get started:

• Make sure your Nansen account has access to Nansen Query. Contact your Customer Success Manager for help.

• Retrieve your API access token using your account's email and password from this endpoint:

https://query.api.nansen.ai/auth

The following sample code can be executed from most Linux terminals:

    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -d '{"email": "EMAIL", "password": "PASSWORD"}' \
    https://query.api.nansen.ai/auth

    -H "Authorization: Bearer TOKEN" \
