Introduction

Welcome to the official API documentation for Ethos Network. This documentation provides detailed information about the Ethos API endpoints, request/response formats, and data models.

These docs are available at https://developers.ethos.network/ and https://github.com/trust-ethos/api-docs.

Getting Started

Ethos offers a comprehensive RESTful API that allows developers to interact with the Ethos Network. The API is organized around standard HTTP methods and uses standard HTTP response codes.

Whitepaper

For a complete overview of the Ethos Network, including its mechanisms and governance model, please refer to the Ethos Whitepaper.

Base URL

All API requests should be made to the following base URL:

https://api.ethos.network

Authentication

Most API endpoints require authentication using Privy authentication tokens. Include the token in the Authorization header:

Authorization: Bearer <your_privy_token>

Client Identification

To help us monitor and manage usage across different integrations, all API requests must include the X-Ethos-Client header.

This header should contain the name of your product or integration, and may optionally include a version number (e.g., my-app or [email protected]).

X-Ethos-Client: [email protected]

Including this header helps us:

  • Attribute traffic to your app

  • Diagnose issues faster

  • Ensure fair and efficient resource allocation

Userkeys

Some APIs accept a userkey as a user identifier. Below are the supported formats:

  • profileId:<id> — Ethos profile ID (e.g., profileId:10)

  • address:<address> — Ethereum address (e.g., address:0xd8dA6BF26964aF9D7eEd9e03E53415D37aA96045)

  • service:discord:<discordUserId> — Discord user ID (e.g., service:discord:797130033613242441)

  • service:x.com:<twitterUserId> — Twitter (x.com) user ID (e.g., service:x.com:295218901)

  • service:x.com:username:<twitterUsername> — Twitter (x.com) username (e.g., service:x.com:username:VitalikButerin)
