API Endpoints
Clusters
Mainnet:
api-mainnet.magiceden.dev/v2/ord- This endpoint provides access to the real Ordinals Mainnet cluster, where the tokens are real and the data is consistent with what you see on https://magiceden.io/ordinals.
Ordinals API Keys
To access certain endpoints, you may need an API key. The API key is required to authorize your HTTP requests.
Rate Limiting
The public API is free to use, and the default rate limit is 30 queries per minute (QPM). Unauthorized requests use the "demo" key, which is also subject to the 30 QPM limit. Please note that exceeding the rate limit may result in a 429 status code. If you require a higher limit, please fill out the form to obtain an API key.
When making batch requests, it is recommended to add a small timeout between requests to avoid connection refusal, regardless of whether you have an API key or not.
Authorization Header
To access the instruction endpoints, you must include an Authorization header in your HTTP requests. The value of the Authorization header should be Bearer followed by your API key.
Example:
makefileCopy codeAuthorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY
Replace YOUR_API_KEY with the actual API key provided to you.
