Getting Started

To begin using Numia's Advanced API and access rich blockchain data, follow the steps below to create an account, set up a project, and generate your API key.

  1. First, you need to create an account with Numia. Visit our dashboard and sign up to get started.

  2. Once logged in, click Create on the New Project card, and choose a name for your project

  3. After creating your project, you need to open it and add the blockchain protocol you want to access through the API.

  4. Get your API key to be used for authentication in your API requests, allowing you to interact with Numia's data. You have two ways to authenticate. Let's assume your API key is sk_your_api_key and you want to access /cosmos/base/tendermint/v1beta1/blocks/latest:

    Bearer Token Authentication

    Include your API key in the Authorization header as a Bearer Token.

    curl -H "Authorization: Bearer sk_your_api_key" \
    "https://api.numia.xyz/cosmos/base/tendermint/v1beta1/blocks/latest"

    Path-based Authentication

    Prefix all API URLs with /apikey/$YOUR_API_KEY/.

    curl "https://api.numia.xyz/apikey/sk_your_api_key/cosmos/base/tendermint/v1beta1/blocks/latest"

    You'll also be able to see the LCD and RPC endpoints for that chain.

  5. Feel free to check the endpoints documentation and send request using the API docs playground.
