The OpenSea API gives you access to NFTs, tokens, and marketplace data across supported blockchains. Use it to fetch metadata, create and fulfill orders, track events, and build on top of the OpenSea ecosystem.

What you can do

Data & Discovery — Look up accounts, collections, NFTs, contracts, and tokens. Search across the OpenSea ecosystem.

Marketplace & Trading — Create and fulfill listings and offers, cancel orders, get swap quotes, and build drop mint transactions.

Analytics & Events — Query collection stats (floor price, volume, sales) and event streams (sales, transfers, listings, offers) filtered by collection, NFT, or account.
