Bitquery Explorer

We have built our multi blockchain explorer to showcase our APIs, Therefore for beginners, I recommend first check our explorer.

You can enter your token, transaction, address anything and search for it. Once you see the relevant data you can click on the “Get API” button at the bottom right corner to check what GrpahQL query is responsible for that data. I highly recommend searching our explorer first before

Check our IDE - Examples
We have built our GraphQL IDE to make it easy to work with blockchain data. Using our IDE you can create, save, test, and share your GraphQL queries.

You can find a lot of query examples created by our community on our IDE, I recommend checking them first, most probably someone already build the query which you are looking for.

Query Builder
We also have a Query Builder on our IDE which is built to help you create our queries easily. This way you can create queries with simple clicks.
