The NFTScan API SDK is a JavaScript / TypeScript library which provides convenience and quick access to the NFTScan's APIs, it helps developers build new experiences retrieving NFTs and data analysis. We provide a set of endpoints that enable you to fetch ERC721 and ERC1155 NFT assets as well as transactions, collections, marketplace statistics and more.

To use our APIs, You need to register an account on NFTScan open platform OpenAPI Platform and get your API-KEY for making calls to API services.

The daily request limit for a single account is 10,000 general calls. If you have more needs, please upgrade your API plans to OpenAPI Pricing to enhance the number of calls and obtain access to the PRO interfaces.

The SDK currently supports the following chains:

The value of Short name is used in the SDK as an initialization configuration parameter.

via npm:

npm install nftscan-api

or yarn:

yarn add nftscan-api

Then you can import and use the SDK:

import { ErcType, EvmChain, NftscanEvm } from "nftscan-api";

const config = {
  apiKey: "<YOUR_API_KEY>", // Replace with your NFTScan API key.
  chain: EvmChain.ETH, // Replace with your chain.
};

const evm = new NftscanEvm(config);

The new NftscanEvm() returns an object that can query the EVM-like chain, for here it is EvmChain.ETH, which stand for the Ethereum blockchain.

The complete enumeration value of EvmChain includes the following:

export enum EvmChain {
  ETH = 'eth',
  BNB = 'bnb',
  ARBITRUM = 'arbitrum',
  MOONBEAM = 'moonbeam',
  POLYGON = 'polygon',
  OPTIMISM = 'optimism',
  PLATON = 'platon',
  AVALANCHE = 'avalanche',
  CRONOS = 'cronos',
}

And then you can use the object evm to access to the NFTScan API, form example getAssetsByAccount, which can retrieve the assets owned by an account.

const accountAddress = "<ACCOUNT_ADDRESS>"; // Replace with the account address you want to query.
// Access asset-related APIs
evm.asset
  // Retrieve assets owned by an account.
  .getAssetsByAccount(accountAddress, {
    erc_type: ErcType.ERC_721, // Can be erc721 or erc1155
  })
  .then((res) => console.log(res));

// Access transaction-related APIs 
evm.transaction
  // Retrieve transactions by an account
  .getTransactionsByAccount(accountAddress)
  .then((res) => console.log(res));

Not only asset and transaction, but the NftscanEvm also provides several other objects, for example collection \ statistic \ other, these objects provide different types of APIs.

To query the other EVM-like chain's asset, for example 'Arbitrum', changing the config param chain to EvmChain.ARBITRUM:

const evm = new NftscanEvm({
  apiKey: "<YOUR_API_KEY>",
  chain: EvmChain.ARBITRUM, 
});

We also support the Solana blockchain, to access the API, you just need to use new NftscanSolana() to get an object.

const sol = new NftscanSolana({ apiKey: "<YOUR_API_KEY>" });
sol.asset
  .getAssetsByAccount("<ACCOUNT_ADDRESS>")
  .then((res) => console.log(res));

In general, NFTScan's API that supports pagination will uses the query params cursor as the paging parameter, The return data of the API call will contain the attribute next, you can pass in the next value to the next call.

For example:

let nextCursor = "";
const { content, next } = await evm.asset.getAccountMinted("<ACCOUNT_ADDRESS>", {
  cursor: nextCursor, // A cursor to retrieve the next page
  limit: 20, // Page size
});
// update the nextCursor
nextCursor = next;

The SDK currently supports all of the NFTScan API endpoints, The distribution of the API is consistent with the NFTScan API.
