The IXO Blockchain REST API provides a RESTful interface to access IXO blockchain’s gRPC services, bridging the gap between high-performance gRPC and web-friendly REST APIs.

How It Works

The process of handling API requests

Steps

  1. Client makes RESTful HTTP request
  2. Gateway translates to gRPC request
  3. gRPC server processes request
  4. Response converted back to HTTP/JSON
Main benefits of using the gRPC Gateway

Features

  • REST access to gRPC services
  • Simplified blockchain integration
  • JSON response format
  • Extensive endpoint coverage

Available Endpoints

Endpoints for managing entities
GET /ixo/entity/{id}
Endpoints for handling claims
GET /ixo/claims/claims
Endpoints for token management
GET /ixo/token/params

Response Structure

All responses are returned in JSON format and follow a consistent structure:
{
  "data": {
    // Response data specific to the endpoint
  },
  "metadata": {
    // Additional information about the response
  }
}

Development Resources

The gRPC Gateway simplifies blockchain integration by allowing developers to use familiar REST APIs instead of implementing gRPC-specific libraries.
