Kadena cut API

A cut represents a distributed state of a chainweb. It references oneblock header for each chain, such that those blocks are pairwiseconcurrent.Two blocks from two different chains are said to be concurrent if eitherone of them is an adjacent parent (is a direct dependency) of the other orif the blocks do not depend at all on each other.

Kadena cut API is one of 16 APIs that Kadena publishes on the APIs.io network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification.

Tagged areas include cut. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification and an API reference.

This API exposes 2 operations across 1 path, and defines 5 schemas. It is described by OpenAPI 3.2.0, at version 0.0.

Requests are made against 5 base URLs: https://api.chainweb.com/chainweb/{apiVersion}/mainnet01, https://api.testnet.chainweb.com/chainweb/{apiVersion}/testnet04, {schema}://{domain}:{port}/chainweb/{apiVersion}/{chainwebVersion}, https://{location}.chainweb.com/chainweb/{apiVersion}/mainnet01, https://{location}.testnet.chainweb.com/chainweb/{apiVersion}/testnet04.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of Kadena cut API, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.

The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
