Ic Dashboard

A clean wrapper around the public REST APIs that power dashboard.internetcomputer.org. You get read-only access to canister metadata, ICRC ledgers, SNS data, the ICP ledger, and network metrics without deploying canisters or spending cycles. The v2+ endpoints use cursor pagination (after, before, limit) and mirror what the live dashboard uses. One gotcha: ICRC API only covers TestICP and other ICRC tokens like ckBTC, not mainnet ICP. For mainnet ICP accounts and transactions, you need the separate Ledger API. Useful when you're building off-chain tooling or scripts that need IC network data over HTTPS. The OpenAPI specs are linked if you want to generate clients.

IC Dashboard APIs

What This Is

These public REST APIs power dashboard.internetcomputer.org. They expose read-only access to canister metadata, ICRC ledgers, SNS data, the ICP ledger, and network metrics via OpenAPI specs and Swagger UI. Agents and scripts can call them over HTTPS from off-chain (no canister deployment or cycles required). Prefer v2 or higher API versions where available; they provide cursor-based pagination (after, before, limit) and are the same surface the dashboard uses.

Prerequisites

Any HTTP client: curl, fetch, axios, or the language’s native HTTP library.
No icp-cli or canister deployment needed for read-only API access.
For OpenAPI-based codegen: optional use of the openapi.json URLs with your preferred OpenAPI tooling.
