PearlStack exposes a versioned JSON API for Pearl explorer data. Start anonymously, add an API key for a higher bucket, and use cursor pagination for list endpoints.
Anonymous requests work immediately:
curl "https://api.pearlstack.net/v1/status" curl "https://api.pearlstack.net/v1/blocks?limit=5" curl "https://api.pearlstack.net/v1/search?q=PearlHash"
Use an API key when you want a separate, higher rate-limit bucket:
curl -H "X-API-Key: psk_live_..." "https://api.pearlstack.net/v1/api/me" curl -H "Authorization: Bearer psk_live_..." "https://api.pearlstack.net/v1/blocks?limit=5"
API keys are optional for now. When present, the key is checked server-side and responses identify the current bucket through /v1/api/me.
X-API-Key: psk_live_... Authorization: Bearer psk_live_...
Every rate-limited response includes headers your client can use to avoid noisy retries.
X-RateLimit-Limit: 300 X-RateLimit-Remaining: 299 X-RateLimit-Reset: 1782466380 Retry-After: 12
List endpoints accept limit and cursor. The first request omits cursor. Use pagination.nextCursor for the next page.
curl "https://api.pearlstack.net/v1/blocks?limit=10" curl "https://api.pearlstack.net/v1/blocks?limit=10&cursor=<nextCursor>"
Legacy offset still works, but new integrations should use cursors.
JSON responses include meta so clients can log request ids and know how fresh the indexed data is.
