API

Introduction

A consolidated API inclusive of all endpoints for protocols and tools within the Portal Network, it is an easy access to the Blockchain networks.

Authentication

Portal Network uses API keys to allow access to the API. Users can register a new Portal Network API key here (coming soon).

Portal Network expects for the API key to be included in all API requests to the server in a header that looks like the following:

Authorization: auth_key

shell

python

Errors

This error section is stored in a separate file in includes/_errors.md. Slate allows you to optionally separate out your docs into many files...just save them to the includes folder and add them to the top of your index.md's frontmatter. Files are included in the order listed.
