Authentication

The SolixDB API uses API key authentication for all requests.

API Key Header

Include your API key in the request header:

X-API-Key: your-api-key-here

Obtaining an API Key

Contact support to obtain an API key. API keys are unique identifiers that:

• Authenticate your requests

• Track your usage

• Enforce rate limits

Using API Keys

REST API

curl -X GET "https://api.solixdb.xyz/api/v1/transactions" \
  -H "X-API-Key: your-api-key"

GraphQL

curl -X POST "https://api.solixdb.xyz/graphql" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-API-Key: your-api-key" \
  -d '{"query": "{ stats { totalTransactions } }"}'

JavaScript/TypeScript

const response = await fetch('https://api.solixdb.xyz/api/v1/transactions', {
  headers: {
    'X-API-Key': 'your-api-key'
  }
});

Python

import requests

headers = {
    'X-API-Key': 'your-api-key'
}

response = requests.get(
    'https://api.solixdb.xyz/api/v1/transactions',
    headers=headers
)
