Oracles API
Retrieve a list of supported oracles by chain and their associated metadata.
The Blocknative Gas Oracles API provides metadata on supported chains, including their chain ID, label, architecture, RPC url, block explorer url and oracle addresses keyed by version. This allows developers to dynamically identify which networks have live supported gas estimation oracles.
Authentication
A valid Blocknative API key is OPTIONAL in the Authorization Header of every request. Request an API key here .
A free API key is recommended for more generous rate limits and future features.
API Endpoint
GET https://api.blocknative.com/oracles
Returns a list of supported gas oracles per chain along with their chain ID, label, architecture (e.g., evm), RPC url, block explorer url and oracle addresses keyed by version (e.g. "2":"0x1c51B22954af03FE11183aaDF43F6415907a9287"). This allows users to identify networks that have supported oracles where Blocknative provides onchain gas price estimation. The list and available fields are subject to change as new chains or parameters are added or updated.
Rate Limits
Each endpoint is limited to provide updated results once per second for paid tier API keys, or every 5 seconds for free tier API keys. Polling faster than these rates may deliver stale data.
Example Request
curl -H 'Authorization: optional-apikey-here'
'https://api.blocknative.com/oracle'Headers
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Authorization | String | OPTIONAL if used, must contain a valid apikey |
Response Codes
| Code | Description |
|---|---|
200 | Success |
401 | API key invalid or not provided |
429 | Rate limit exceeded. Refer to headers for retry |
