How to get a free DexGrade API key
Create a free API key in under a minute and use the DexGrade API for token safety checks, trades, prices and holders on 9 chains.
Do I need a key?
No. The API works without one at 30 calls a minute. A free key raises that to 300 calls a minute and 5,000 calls a day (the day resets at 00:00 UTC). CoinsWavez plans raise the daily allowance: Starter 20,000, Pro 50,000, Whale 200,000. Answers to apps can be up to 2 minutes old.
Create your key
It is free and takes under a minute.
- Sign up or log in on dexgrade.com (top right).
- Open your profile and find "API keys".
- Give the key a name, such as the name of your bot or app, and create it.
- Copy the key straight away. For your safety it is shown only once.
Use your key
Send it as the X-API-Key header. You can also add ?key=YOUR_KEY to the address, but the header keeps it out of logs.
curl -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_KEY" https://dexgrade.com/api/data/v1/token/solana/DezXAZ8z7PnrnRJjz3wXBoRgixCa6xjnB7YaB1pPB263Keep it safe
Treat your key like a password: keep it on your server, never in a public website or app. If one leaks, delete it in your profile and create a new one.
What you can call
Token reports, a daily report for your token, the share card image, trades, price candles, price history, top traders and the token lists. See the full list on the Free API page.
Build a Telegram bot
See "Run your own Telegram safety bot with the free CoinsWavez API": a ready-made bot that checks any address posted in your group and posts your token's daily report.
