Token API

Token API

Token API is an Advanced API's collection of methods that comes as a unique feature along with other extensive capabilities provided to our Premium Plan users.

Token API serves to request token-related data (account balance, supported currencies, token holders, token price, etc.) across multiple EVM-compatible chains.

Token API uses only official on-chain data, leaving third parties behind. Ankr constantly scans for the on-chain transactions coming from DEXs, flagging transactions and aggregating data into accurate real-time token price feeds. This solution is crucial for the Web3 projects like marketplaces and exchanges looking for efficient ways to query accurate on-chain data for tokenized assets.

Token API implements the JSON-RPC 2.0 specification (opens in a new tab) for interaction.

Token API Methods

Token API consists of the following methods to request token-related data across multiple chains:

ankr_getAccountBalance

Retrieves account balance.

Retrieves the balance of the account specified.

  • method (string; required): a method used for the request.

  • params (object): the data object containing request body parameters:

    • blockchain (string): a chain or a combination of chains to query:
      • Single chain: arbitrum, avalanche, base, bsc, eth, fantom, flare, gnosis, linea, optimism, polygon, polygon_zkevm, rollux, scroll, stellar, syscoin, telos, xai, xlayer, avalanche_fuji, base_sepolia, eth_holesky, eth_sepolia, optimism_testnet, polygon_amoy.
