The contract defines 17 schemas that model the data the API accepts and returns. The most detailed are blockHeader (13 properties), payloadWithOutputs (6 properties), nodeInfo (5 properties). Each schema is shown below with its type and property counts.

sha256Hash
string
Base64Url (without padding) encoded SHA256 hash
payloadWithOutputs
object
Payload with outputs of a Block including the Merkle roots for transactions and transaction outputs
6 properties 6 required
backupStatus
string
target
string
The PoW target of a block represented as the base64Url (without padding) 256 bit little endian encoding of the numerical value.
hostAddress
string
Host address containing IPv4 and port
blockHeader
object
JSON Encoded Block Header
13 properties 13 required
posixTimestamp
integer
Seconds since POSIX epoch
backupId
string
Textual backup job identifier
nodeInfo
object
General information about a chainweb node
5 properties 5 required
blockHeight
integer
The height of a block is the number of its predecessors in the block chain
posixTimestampMicro
integer
Microseconds since POSIX epoch
blockHash
Base64Url (without padding) encoded block hash
blockWeight
string
The POW weight of a block is the sum of the difficulties of the block and of all of its ancestors. The difficulty of a block is the maximum difficulty divided…
nonce
string
PoW nonce of the block. This is computed by the miner such that the block hash is smaller than the target.
chainwebVersion
The version of the Chainweb network
payloadHash
Base64Url (without padding) encoded block payload hash
chainId
integer
A Chainweb chain ID. In Kadena Chainweb chains are named by numbers starting form 0. Valid values depend on the current graph at the respective block height of…

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of Kadena misc 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.
