Get Started

The Blockdaemon Tokenization API provides access to various blockchain networks and their associated services. Follow the steps below to get started with the Tokenization API for free today.

Step 1. Sign Up for an API Key

To use the Blockdaemon Tokenization API, you must sign up for an API key. To do this, visit the Blockdaemon website and create an account.

Once you have an account, you can access your API key from the dashboard.

Step 2. Get Familiar with API Endpoints

The Blockdaemon Tokenization API provides a variety of endpoints for different types of interactions with tokenized assets.

You can learn more about Overview - Tokenization API or find a list of supported protocols and networks.

Step 3. Test the API

You can test the API by sending an API request to the endpoint, which will return the requested data in JSON format.

Option 1: Use the API Reference Docs

Below is a request example to identify token transfer restrictions using the POST - Check Transfer Restrictions endpoint:

curl -X POST 'https://svc.blockdaemon.com/tokens/v1/{protocol}/{network}/{token_addr}/check_transfer_restriction' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json'
-H 'X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY'
-d '{
      "from":"0x7986b3D94fB18fedF6F9eb4eB28A44C8952C95E4", 
      "to":"0x2Ee91F2AD688A568367D0dDa98A4e1ffd0F111E5", 
      "value":1
}' \

It returns the transfer restriction result, which could be "No Restriction" or "Existing Restriction" for each token (ERC-1404/ERC-3643).

/** Restriction for ERC-1404 **/
{
    "can_transfer": false,
    "restriction_code": 1,
    "restriction_message": "The transfer was restricted due to white list configuration.",
    "standard": "ERC-1404"
}

Option 2: Use Your Preferred API Platform

Alternatively, you can use an API platform such as Postman. Use the following endpoint to send an API request.
