Introduction

Welcome to the PolygonScan APIs documentation 🚀.

PolygonScan is the leading blockchain explorer, search, API and analytics platform for Polygon zkEVM, a zero-knowledge scaling solution for Ethereum.

As a means to provide equitable access to blockchain data, we've developed the PolygonScan Developer APIs to empower developers with direct access to PolygonScan's block explorer data and services via GET/POST requests.

PolygonScan's APIs are provided as a community service and without warranty, so please use what you need and no more.

Source attribution via a backlink or a mention that your app is "Powered by PolygonScan APIs" is required except for personal/private usage.

API Endpoints

Your app may need to detect ETH token deposits , count how many transactions were sent from an address 🔢 or check an address's ERC20 token balance 💎

For that you may find a suitable endpoint from our wide range of APIs that you can simply query to provide data while you remain fully focused on building your applications.

PolygonScan offers 2 types of API plans, a set of free community endpoints and API PRO which consists of additional derived blockchain data.

Tutorials

There is an overwhelming amount of data 📈 that can be extracted from the Polygon zkEVM Chain.

We've helped you take the first steps by writing some thorough tutorials on how to query and derive popular blockchain metrics.

For power users, we've also added guides such as how you can programmatically verify contracts through API calls and more advanced use cases of endpoints.
