TAOSCOPE / Reference
Explorer API
A versioned server-to-server API for TaoScope's indexed Bittensor explorer data. Create a key in your profile and send it with every request.
Authentication
Create an API key from /profile. TaoScope shows the full secret once and stores only its SHA-256 hash. Send the secret as a bearer token or in the X-API-Key header.
Treat API keys like passwords
Endpoints
GET /api/v1/explorer/overview— network statistics, leading subnets, and emission allocation.GET /api/v1/explorer/subnets— subnet list with status, sorting, and optional limits.GET /api/v1/explorer/subnets/:id— one subnet and its validator context.GET /api/v1/explorer/subnets/:id/history— 7-day or 30-day price history. Pro plan.GET /api/v1/explorer/validators— validator list with status, permit, subnet, sorting, and limits.GET /api/v1/explorer/validators/:hotkey— validator details and observed history.GET /api/v1/explorer/transactions— indexed network transactions with pagination.GET /api/v1/explorer/transactions/:id— one indexed transaction.
Filtering and limits
Subnets
Use status, sort, order, and limit. Sort fields are explicitly allow-listed; unsupported field names fall back to the endpoint default rather than accessing arbitrary object properties.
Validators
Use status, permit, subnet, sort, order, and limit.
Transactions
Use netuid, action, delegateHotkey, page, and limit. Transaction page size is capped at 200.
Quotas
The response includes minute and monthly quota headers. Usage is incremented atomically so concurrent requests cannot bypass a plan limit. Current plan limits are shown on the pricing and profile pages.
Errors
400— an identifier or query value is invalid.401— the API key is missing, invalid, or revoked.403— the endpoint requires a higher plan.404— the requested subnet, validator, or transaction does not exist.429— the minute or monthly plan quota has been reached.503— prepared explorer data is temporarily unavailable.
