Octav API Integration
API for cryptocurrency portfolio tracking, transaction history, and DeFi analytics.
Quick Reference
Base URL: https://api.octav.fi
Auth: Bearer token in Authorization header
Rate Limit: 360 requests/minute/key
Pricing: Credit-based ($0.02-0.025/credit)
Dev Portal: https://data.octav.fi
Authentication
bashcurl -X GET "https://api.octav.fi/v1/credits" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
Store API key in environment variable OCTAV_API_KEY. Never hardcode.
Access methods
Default to the API-key REST API documented below. It covers all 25 endpoints.
Octav also exposes 5 endpoints over the x402 payment protocol at /v1/agent/{portfolio,wallet,nav,status,chains} — 0.025 USDC per call on Base, no API key. Use x402 only when:
- the user explicitly asked for x402 or pay-per-call access, or
- the agent has its own funded wallet and no API key is available.
Otherwise use /v1/* with a Bearer token, and mention x402 exists if one of those cases applies. Do not start from x402 by default.
There is no /v1/agent/transactions — transaction history requires an API key.

x402 endpoints (no API key — see Access methods above)
| Endpoint | Method | Cost | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
/v1/agent/portfolio | GET | 0.025 USDC | Wallet and protocol holdings |
/v1/agent/wallet | GET | 0.025 USDC | Wallet holdings only |
/v1/agent/nav | GET | 0.025 USDC | Net Asset Value — {nav, currency, conversionPrice} |
/v1/agent/status | GET | 0.025 USDC | Sync status |

An unpaid request returns HTTP 402 with a base64 payment-required header containing the payment challenge (USDC on Base, eip155:8453). An x402-capable HTTP client settles it and retries automatically.
Core Endpoints
Portfolio
Get holdings across wallets and DeFi protocols.
javascriptconst response = await fetch( `https://api.octav.fi/v1/portfolio?addresses=${address}`, { headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${apiKey}` } } ); const portfolio = await response.json(); // portfolio.networth, portfolio.assetByProtocols, portfolio.chains
Parameters:
addresses(required): EVM or Solana address. Comma-separate multiple addresses in one request to save credits.includeImages: Include asset/protocol image URLs (default: false)includeExplorerUrls: Include block explorer URLs (default: false)waitForSync: Wait for fresh data if stale (default: false)
Response structure:
json{ "address": "0x...", "networth": "45231.89", "assetByProtocols": { "wallet": { "key": "wallet", "name": "Wallet", "value": "12453.20", "assets": [...] }, "aave_v3": { "key": "aave_v3", "name": "Aave V3", "value": "8934.12", "assets": [...] } }, "chains": { "ethereum": { "value": "25123.45", "protocols": [...] }, "arbitrum": { "value": "20108.44", "protocols": [...] } } }
Nav (Net Asset Value)
Get net worth as a single value, optionally converted to another currency.
javascriptconst response = await fetch( `https://api.octav.fi/v1/nav?addresses=${address}¤cy=USD`, { headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${apiKey}` } } ); const { nav, currency, conversionPrice } = await response.json(); // { "nav": 1235564.43, "currency": "USD", "conversionPrice": 1 }
Parameters:
addresses(required): EVM or Solana addresscurrency: FiatUSD(default),EUR,CAD,AED,CHF,SGD; cryptoETH,SOL,cbBTC,EURC,BNBwaitForSync: Wait for fresh data if stale (default: false)
conversionPrice is the rate used — for fiat, the exchange rate from USD; for crypto, the weighted average USD price across the queried wallets.
Transactions
Query transaction history with filtering.
javascriptconst params = new URLSearchParams({ addresses: '0x...', limit: '50', offset: '0', sort: 'DESC', hideSpam: 'true' }); const response = await fetch( `https://api.octav.fi/v1/transactions?${params}`, { headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${apiKey}` } } );
Required parameters:
addresses: Wallet address(es)limit: Results per page (1-250)offset: Pagination offset
Optional filters:
sort:DESC(newest) orASC(oldest)networks: Chain filter (e.g.,ethereum,arbitrum,base)txTypes: Transaction type filter (e.g.,SWAP,DEPOSIT)protocols: Protocol filter (e.g.,uniswap_v3,aave_v3)hideSpam: Exclude spam (default: false)hideDust: Exclude dust transactions (default: false)startDate/endDate: ISO 8601 date range, UTC, both inclusive.endDaterounds up to the end of its calendar day (23:59:59Z), so for a single day set both to the same date; never setendDateto the next day's midnight (duplicates the boundary tx)interactingAddresses: Filter by interacting addresses (comma-separated)tokenId: Filter by NFT token IDinitialSearchText: Full-text search in assets
Response (array of transactions):
json[{ "hash": "0xa1b2c3...", "timestamp": "1699012800", "chain": { "key": "ethereum", "name": "Ethereum" }, "type": "SWAP", "protocol": { "key": "uniswap_v3", "name": "Uniswap V3" }, "fees": "0.002134", "feesFiat": "7.12", "assetsIn": [{ "symbol": "WETH", "amount": "1.5", "value": "4800.00" }], "assetsOut": [{ "symbol": "USDC", "amount": "4795.23", "value": "4795.23" }] }]
Sync Transactions
Trigger manual sync for fresh transaction data.
javascriptconst response = await fetch('https://api.octav.fi/v1/sync-transactions', { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${apiKey}`, 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, body: JSON.stringify({ addresses: ['0x...'] }) }); // Returns: "Address is syncing" or "Address already syncing"
Cost: 1 credit + 1 credit per 250 transactions indexed (first-time only).
Status (Free)
Check sync status before expensive operations.
javascriptconst response = await fetch( `https://api.octav.fi/v1/status?addresses=${address}`, { headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${apiKey}` } } ); const [status] = await response.json(); // status.portfolioLastSync, status.transactionsLastSync, status.syncInProgress
Credits (Free)
Check remaining credit balance.
javascriptconst credits = await fetch('https://api.octav.fi/v1/credits', { headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${apiKey}` } }).then(r => r.json()); // Returns: 19033 (number)
Historical Portfolio
Get portfolio snapshot for a specific date. Requires subscription.
javascriptconst response = await fetch( `https://api.octav.fi/v1/historical?addresses=${address}&date=2024-11-01`, { headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${apiKey}` } } );
Token Overview (PRO Only)
Detailed token breakdown by protocol.
javascriptconst response = await fetch( `https://api.octav.fi/v1/token-overview?addresses=${address}&date=2024-11-01`, { headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${apiKey}` } } );

Error Handling
javascriptasync function fetchWithRetry(url, options, maxRetries = 3) { for (let i = 0; i < maxRetries; i++) { const response = await fetch(url, options); if (response.status === 429) { const retryAfter = response.headers.get('Retry-After') || 60; await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, retryAfter * 1000)); continue; } if (!response.ok) { const error = await response.json(); throw new Error(`API Error ${response.status}: ${error.message}`); } return response; } throw new Error('Max retries exceeded'); }
Common errors:
401: Invalid/missing API key402: Insufficient credits403: Endpoint requires PRO subscription429: Rate limit exceeded (wait and retry)404: Address not indexed (>100k transactions)
Cost Optimization
- Batch addresses: comma-separate them in one request —
?addresses=0x123,0x456,0x789— to save credits versus one call each - Use free endpoints:
/v1/status,/v1/credits,/v1/chains, and/v1/chains/{chainKey}/protocolscost nothing - Filter on server: Use
networks,txTypesparams vs client filtering - Cache results: Portfolio cached 1 minute, transactions 10 minutes
- Check status first: Avoid unnecessary syncs
Common Patterns
Multi-wallet portfolio
javascriptconst addresses = ['0x123...', '0x456...', '0x789...']; const response = await fetch( `https://api.octav.fi/v1/portfolio?addresses=${addresses.join(',')}`, { headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${apiKey}` } } );
Paginated transaction fetch
javascriptasync function getAllTransactions(address) { const transactions = []; let offset = 0; const limit = 250; while (true) { const response = await fetch( `https://api.octav.fi/v1/transactions?addresses=${address}&limit=${limit}&offset=${offset}&sort=DESC`, { headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${apiKey}` } } ); const batch = await response.json(); if (batch.length === 0) break; transactions.push(...batch); offset += batch.length; if (batch.length < limit) break; } return transactions; }
Smart sync workflow
javascriptasync function smartSync(address) { // Check status first (free) const [status] = await fetch( `https://api.octav.fi/v1/status?addresses=${address}`, { headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${apiKey}` } } ).then(r => r.json()); const lastSync = new Date(status.transactionsLastSync); const minutesSinceSync = (Date.now() - lastSync) / 1000 / 60; if (minutesSinceSync > 10 && !status.syncInProgress) { await fetch('https://api.octav.fi/v1/sync-transactions', { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${apiKey}`, 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, body: JSON.stringify({ addresses: [address] }) }); } }
