Ink API

Token balances with prices, transaction history and token approvals for any Ink address, indexed from genesis to the latest block, plus JSON-RPC for Ink with archive depth. One API key, no nodes to run.

// Token balances on Ink: 1 credit
const chain = "ink-mainnet";
const address = "0xd8dA6BF26964aF9D7eEd9e03E53415D37aA96045";
const url = "https://api.covalenthq.com/v1/" + chain +
  "/address/" + address + "/balances_v2/";

const key = process.env.GOLDRUSH_API_KEY;
const res = await fetch(url, {
  headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${key}` },
});
const { data } = await res.json();

for (const token of data.items) {
  // balance, quote (USD value), quote_rate …
  console.log(token.contract_ticker_symbol, token.pretty_quote);
}

// ethers v6, pointed at the GoldRush endpoint
import { ethers } from "ethers";

const url = "https://rpc.goldrushdata.com/v1/ink-mainnet";
const req = new ethers.FetchRequest(url);
const key = process.env.GOLDRUSH_API_KEY;
req.setHeader("Authorization", `Bearer ${key}`);
const provider = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider(req);
