The Protocol Metrics API is a foundational set of endpoints for interacting with protocols supported by Messari. Because different protocol types track different metrics, the data is organized by protocol category.
Core Protocol Metrics
All supported protocols have a common set of core metrics, which represent aggregated data across all deployments of a given protocol.
Endpoints:
List All Protocols
Returns all available protocols and their coverage within Messari.
List All Protocols Core Metrics
Returns a list of all available core protocol metrics.
Protocol Core Timeseries Metric
Returns data points for a selected core timeseries metric. Typically used to export full data series or for graphical visualizations.
DEX Protocol Metrics
Protocols categorized as Decentralized Exchanges (DEXs) have an additional set of DEX-specific metrics, aggregated across all deployments of the DEX.
Endpoints:
List DEXs
Returns all available DEXs and their coverage within Messari.
List DEX Metrics
Returns a list of all available DEX metrics.
DEX Timeseries Metric
Returns data points for a selected DEX timeseries metric. Typically used to export full data series or for graphical visualizations.
Lending Protocol Metrics
Protocols categorized as Lending Protocols have their own set of lending-specific metrics, aggregated across all deployments of the lending protocol.
Endpoints:
List Lending Protocols
Returns all available lending protocols and their coverage within Messari.
List Lending Metrics
Returns a list of all available lending metrics.
Lending Timeseries Metric
Returns data points for a selected lending timeseries metric. Typically used to export full data series or for graphical visualizations.
Data Sources
Protocol data is sourced from Token Terminal and depends on the coverage of both the underlying network and the individual protocol.
