API Documentation
Overview
We provide a simple and powerful API that allows you to programmatically fetch search results from Blockabase. As a member of blockabase you can have multiple API keys which can manageable from your Manage API section of member area. You can create API keys for any of the available two tiers (Tier I, Tier II). All requests are POST requests and all responses come in a default JSON response object.
Getting Started
You can create new APIs on the manage API section. There will be two different API tiers.
- Tier I will be an all inclusive tier which gives a response such as search results, along with number of upvotes, downvotes, likes, comments etc.
- Tier II will only give results without detailed information on each result. Tier II will be typically less expensive than Tier I
