Classic Swap API

Our Swap, Intent, and Price API will be discontinued permanently on 31.10.24

Quote and Solve

Classic Swap has the following endpoints:

• Quote: Returns a quote (but no route). Optimized for response time.

• Solve: Returns quote and transaction instructions. Optimizes for solution quality.

Use /quote to display price and gas quotes with low latency.

Use /solve to build transactions for the user to execute.

Both endpoints use the same format order object to specify user orders.

Token Endpoints

The API also has the following token endpoints:

• Tokens: Get the list of tokens supported by the solver.

• Token Price: Get the token's price denominated in the chain's native token.

• Native Token USD Price: Get the native token to USD price.

Order Object

Definition

Both endpoints use the Order object, which is defined as follows:

Field	Description
sell_token	(string) ERC20 token address of the token you want to sell.
buy_token	(string) ERC20 token address of the token you want to buy.
sell_amount	(string) The amount of sell_token (in sell_token base units) you want to send. Assumes the amount is given in WEI.
origin_address	(string) Wallet address with the funds.
receiver	(optional string) Receiver of the funds. Only pass if different from the origin_address
buy_amount	(optional string) The minimum amount of buy_token (in buy_token base units) you want to receive. If the solver can't find a solution with a better buy amount than this, it will fail immediately. Default is 0, meaning that your order will be solved at the current market price.

Example

{​
    "sell_token": "0xA0b86991c6218b36c1d19D4a2e9Eb0cE3606eB48",​
    "buy_token": "0x6B175474E89094C44Da98b954EedeAC495271d0F",​
    "sell_amount": "1000000000",​
    "origin_address": "0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000",​
    "receiver": "0x1230000000000000000000000000000000000000",
    "buy_amount": "1000000000000000000000"​
}

Quote

POST https://api.propellerheads.xyz/partner/v2/solver/quote

Request

The parameters needed to call the quote endpoint are the following:

Body Parameter	Description
blockchain	(string) The blockchain on which to obtain quotes for orders.
orders	(list[Order]) A list of Order objects
amms	(optional list[string]) Protocols to include in the solution. By default, this is "+all", which includes all protocols (see AMMs for details).
venue	(optional string) Switch between propeller (classic swap) or helix (intent based swap). Default is propeller
fee	(optional float) Percentage of the swap to be taken as a fee to be sent to the fee receiver, specified as a value between 0 and 1 where 1 would signify a fee of 100%. Default 0 (see Fee and Fee Receiver for more)
fee_receiver	(optional string) Address of the wallet which will receive the fee

The Order for the quote endpoint has an optional origin_address and receiver. If at least the origin_address is passed, the quote might be better than without it because the Solver will be able to tap into market makers (through Hashflow, for example).

}

Where request_id is the unique ID used to identify the quote. The quotes are displayed in a list in the same order as the request. For each quote, the sell_token, buy_token, sell_amount and buy_amount are returned. gas is a rough gas estimation of what it would take to execute all quotes on chain and target_address is our router address on the target chain. Information on the sell_tokens and buy_tokens is also returned.

Where there is one solution per order that was in the request, the solution is defined by the same parameters as the order (to match order and solution) and the following parameters:

Field	Description
executed_buy_amount	(string) Optimised amount of buy_token that the solver found.
buy_amount	(string) Minimum amount that you will receive for your order, taking slippage into consideration
gas	(string) Estimated gas used in the txs
call_data	(string) Call data used to execute the txs found by the solver. This data is meant to be sent to our Solver Contracts.
target_address	(string) Contract address to send the txs to. This address should match our Solver Contracts.

Information on the sell_tokens and buy_tokens is returned. If return_routes is True, the routes used in each solution will also be returned (see Routes for more information).

Details on parameters:

AMMs

Both Quote and Solve endpoints support the amms input parameter. amms lets you specify a list of protocols to include in the solution. By default, it is ["+all"], which includes all protocols.

If you want to include only a particular protocol, for example uniswap_v2, you would set amms=["+uniswap_v2"]. If you want to exclude only a particular protocol, you would set amms=["+all", "-uniswap_v2"].

Example

Request example using the AMMs filter:

curl -X 'POST' \
  'https://api.propellerheads.xyz/partner/v2/solver/solve?blockchain=ethereum&slippage=0.0005&return_routes=false' \
  -H 'accept: application/json' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -H 'x-api-key: <api-key>' \
  -d '{
  "orders": [
    {
      "origin_address": "0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000",
      "sell_token": "0xA0b86991c6218b36c1d19D4a2e9Eb0cE3606eB48",
      "buy_token": "0x6B175474E89094C44Da98b954EedeAC495271d0F",
      "sell_amount": "10000000000000",
      "buy_amount": "1000000000000000000000"
    }
  ],
  "amms": [
    "+all",
    "-maverick"
  ]
}'

If an AMM that is not supported is passed, the API will return a 400 error.

"Unsupported AMM found. Supported AMM's are {"uniswap_v2", ...}."

Return Routes

The return_routes parameter in the Solve endpoint lets you specify if you want to receive the routes included in the swap in a structured format (for example, to display the route to users). By default, it is set to False). If set True, the routes used in each solution will be returned in the response. The routes are aggregated per in_token.

Example

A simple solution to swap USDC for DAI would be:

[
  [
    {
      "protocol": "uniswap_v2",
      "in_token": "0xA0b86991c6218b36c1d19D4a2e9Eb0cE3606eB48",
      "out_token": "0x6B175474E89094C44Da98b954EedeAC495271d0F",
      "split": "1.0"
    }
  ]
]

This solution has only one swap in a uniswap v2 pool. The whole sell amount will be routed through this pool.

Let's have a look at a more complex example: swap WBTC for WETH.

[
  [
    {
        "protocol": "balancer",
        "in_token": "0x2260FAC5E5542a773Aa44fBCfeDf7C193bc2C599",
        "out_token": "0xC02aaA39b223FE8D0A0e5C4F27eAD9083C756Cc2",
        "split": 0.04,
    },
    {
        "protocol": "curve_v2",
        "in_token": "0x2260FAC5E5542a773Aa44fBCfeDf7C193bc2C599",
        "out_token": "0xdAC17F958D2ee523a2206206994597C13D831ec7",
        "split": 0.34,
    },
    {
        "protocol": "curve_v2",
        "in_token": "0x2260FAC5E5542a773Aa44fBCfeDf7C193bc2C599",
        "out_token": "0xC02aaA39b223FE8D0A0e5C4F27eAD9083C756Cc2",
        "split": 0.62,
    },
],
[
    {
        "protocol": "curve_v1",
        "in_token": "0xdAC17F958D2ee523a2206206994597C13D831ec7",
        "out_token": "0xA0b86991c6218b36c1d19D4a2e9Eb0cE3606eB48",
        "split": 1.0,
    }
  ],
  [
    {
        "protocol": "uniswap_v2",
        "in_token": "0xA0b86991c6218b36c1d19D4a2e9Eb0cE3606eB48",
        "out_token": "0xC02aaA39b223FE8D0A0e5C4F27eAD9083C756Cc2",
        "split": 1.0,
    }
  ],
]

Visually, the solution would be the following:

Where the splits represent the percentage of sell amount that goes into each pool.

Fee and Fee Receiver

The fee and fee_receiver parameters let you specify the fee percentage (as a value between 0 and 1, where 1 signifies a fee of 100%) and receiver wallet of the fee respectively. By setting the fee parameter of the swap, additional gas will be necessary in order to perform the fee transfer. This will be reflected in a higher gas value in the response of both the /quote and /solve endpoints.

Fee taking is only available on Ethereum Mainnet. To use the fee taking feature, please use the latest Router contract ethereum address: 0x6F67D2b294eAFCD10c420Af9cCdE99ddE7aBE41a. See here all the addresses.
