The Route API is in private partner access. There is no self-serve signup.

Request a key

DM @rapidssh with:
  • Your project name and a link to it
  • What you are building (wallet, app, bot, aggregator)
  • Whether you need swap transactions or only quotes
  • Rough expected request volume
You will receive a key that starts with rk_. It is shown once, so store it somewhere safe.

Using your key

Send the key as a bearer token on every request:
Call the API from your backend only. Never put the key in a browser bundle, mobile app or public repository. The API does not allow browser cross-origin requests.

Key permissions

Ask for swap permission if you want transactions. A quote-only key gets 400 Parameter not available for this key: recipient when it sends transaction parameters.

Limits, rotation and revocation

Each key has its own requests-per-minute limit and a cap on concurrent requests. Both are set when the key is issued and can be raised on request. See errors and limits. If a key leaks, DM @rapidssh right away. It will be revoked and replaced. Revoked keys get 401 Unauthorized.
