This extensive support caters to the diverse needs of developers seeking to index different types of NFT data.

PlatON NFT API Model

This comprises three primary model interfaces, each with an overview and explanation of core API fields to assist developers in accessing and utilizing data for their Dapp services under development.

Assets API: “Assets” represent the most critical data fields within NFT, uniquely identifying and describing digital assets. Developers can extract “Assets” data from NFTs on the PlatON to gain comprehensive insights and construct relevant applications. The “Assets” object provides a unique identification for digital assets and data about their entire lifecycle, serving as a foundation for developers to understand and utilize NFTs.

Transactions API: The transaction model represents the complete transaction data for an NFT asset on the blockchain, offering developers a full view of an NFT’s transaction history. This includes NFT minting, transfers, sales, and other transaction activities, providing developers with an opportunity to deeply understand the flow and evolution of NFT assets within the PlatON ecosystem. NFTScan continuously aggregates the NFT transaction market and related contract information from various blockchain networks. Currently, NFTScan has compiled data for tracking and understanding NFT market dynamics, aiding developers in building NFT-based applications and tools.

Collections API: NFTScan retrieves off-chain data related to NFT Collections, including descriptions, social media, and other fundamental information. This data is obtained from the most popular NFT markets provided through various blockchain networks. Additionally, floor price information is centralized data derived from order information on NFT markets, and it can be accessed via API.

PlatON NFT API Retrieval

1/ Retrieve Assets Series

• Get NFTs by account (Retrieve NFTs using a wallet address)
• Get all NFTs by account (Retrieve all NFTs associated with a wallet address and group them by contract address. If the total number of NFTs owned by the account exceeds 2000, the returned NFTs will be limited to 2000 or less. In such cases, developers and users can use pagination queries to retrieve all NFTs owned by the account.)
• Get minted NFTs by account (Retrieve NFTs minted by a specific wallet address)
• Get NFTs by contract (Retrieve NFTs using a contract address, sorted by token_id in ascending order)
• Get single NFT (Retrieve details of a single NFT)
• Get multiple NFTs (Retrieve details of multiple NFTs from different contract addresses simultaneously)
• Search NFTs (This interface returns a list of NFT assets by applying search filters in the request body. Assets are sorted by nftscan_id in ascending order.)
• Get NFTs by attributes (This interface returns a set of NFTs belonging to contract addresses with specific attributes. NFTs are sorted by token_id in ascending order.)
• Get all multi-chain NFTs by account (This interface returns all multi-chain NFTs owned by a specific wallet address, grouped by contract address.)

Here, we can retrieve all the NFTs held by a specific PlatON wallet address using the API Get all NFTs by account “/v2/account/own/all/{account_address}”. The query parameters include the protocol standards: erc721/erc1155, and sorting fields: mint_time/own_time/last_trade_price (only applicable to erc721). In this case, we are requesting all the erc721 protocol NFTs on the PlatON chain for the address: lat1cghxn3j8j4h7sxw0rey9jzc9388tp7aede4870.

Clicking “Try it” generates a response showing that there are a total of three NFT Collections held at the given address, which are “PlatON Ecosystem Rabbit Red Packets,” “SA NFT,” and “HashKey DID.” The data is sorted in descending order by each collection’s floor price. The returned information includes the contract address and name of each NFT collection, the number of holdings per collection, the number of items under each contract address, and basic details such as floor price and other relevant information.

2/ Retrieve Transactions Series

• Get transactions by account (This interface returns a list of NFT transactions for a wallet address)
• Get transactions by contract (This interface returns a list of NFT transactions for an NFT contract address
• Get transactions by NFT (This interface returns a list of NFT transactions for a single NFT)
• Search transactions (This interface returns a list of NFT transactions by applying search filters in the request body)
• Get transactions by address (This interface returns a list of NFT transactions filtered by transaction parameters)
• Get transactions by hash (This interface returns transaction records based on a list of transaction hashes)

We can use the API “Get transactions by account” “/v2/transactions/account/{account_address}” and the feature to search for NFT transaction records on the PlatON network associated with a particular wallet address. The query parameters allow us to choose which types of NFT events Mint/Transfer/Sale/Burn. Multiple events can be selected using “;” as a separator.

In this case, we will search for NFT transaction records associated with the address lat1cghxn3j8j4h7sxw0rey9jzc9388tp7aede4870. By selecting the Mint event type, the resulting response data will contain all key data for every Item Mint event associated with this address. This includes information such as transaction hash value, From and To addresses, block information, gas usage, transaction timestamp, and other basic data that characterizes NFT transaction events.

3/ Retrieve Collections Series

• Get an NFT collection (Retrieve details based on the contract address of the collection, including an overview and classification of items based on descriptions, distribution of holders, average prices, floor prices, and other basic summary information)
• Search NFT collections (This interface returns information about collections by applying search filters in the request body, and the collections are sorted in ascending order based on the deployment block number)
• Get NFT collections by account (This interface returns a list of projects with the given account address, and the collections are sorted from high to low based on the floor price)
• Get NFT collections by ranking (This interface returns a list of projects with the given sorting field, and the collections are sorted based on the specified sorting field and direction)

Here, we use the API “Get an NFT collection” (“/v2/collections/{contract_address}”) to retrieve the details of an NFT collection with the contract address lat1qjwjv237chk0nhv7xevumjf0g3wtcm73hqv9al and the name Plato_World. Each data entry in the returned response contains 32 data.

Building Relevant NFT API Requests

Once developers find the required PlatON API interfaces and parameters in the NFTScan API documentation, they can use their chosen programming language (such as Python, Java, JavaScript, etc.) to write API request code. Here is an example that demonstrates how a Python script can be used to request details of NFTs held by a wallet address.

For instance, to obtain the NFT details held by the address “lat1cghxn3j8j4h7sxw0rey9jzc9388tp7aede4870,” we can use the HTTP GET request interface “v2/account/own/{account_address}” and the Python requests library to construct the request as shown below:
`import requests

Define NFTScan API endpoint and account address

api_endpoint = "https://api.nftscan.com/v2/account/own"
account_address = "lat1cghxn3j8j4h7sxw0rey9jzc9388tp7aede4870"

Construct API request URL

url = f"{api_endpoint}/{account_address}"

Make an HTTP GET request

response = requests.get(url)

Check if the request was successful

if response.status_code == 200:
# Get the returned JSON data
data = response.json()
# Process the returned NFT details
print("Owner's NFT details:")
print(data) # This will print the retrieved NFT details; you can further process or extract information as needed
else:
print("Request failed:", response.status_code)
After running the code, developers will receive detailed information on the NFTs held by the address and can further process or extract the information as required.`
