    # Introduction
      Welcome to the DexPaprika API! This product is developed by [CoinPaprika](https://coinpaprika.com).

      Our API enables developers to query token, pool, and DEX data across multiple blockchain networks. Feel free to explore our endpoints below.

      **Important:** This API is currently in beta and **should not be used in critical solutions or features**, as the service is under active development. We reserve the right to introduce changes or break backward compatibility.

      ---
    # Getting Started

    ## Testing the API - Code Snippets

    The snippets below show how to quickly make a **GET** request. Since this is
    a **public beta** (no API key needed), you can simply call the endpoints
    directly.


    > **Note**: If you see CORS issues in a browser, you may need to call these
    endpoints from a backend server to avoid local browser restrictions.


    ### 1. cURL


    ```bash

    curl -X GET "https://api.dexpaprika.com/networks/ethereum/pools" | jq

    ```

    ### 2. Node.js (JavaScript)

    ```js

    const https = require('https');


    const options = {
      hostname: 'api.dexpaprika.com',
      path: '/networks/ethereum/pools',
      method: 'GET',
    };


    const req = https.request(options, res => {
      let data = '';
      res.on('data', chunk => { data += chunk; });
      res.on('end', () => { console.log(JSON.parse(data)); });
    });


    req.on('error', error => { console.error(error); });

    req.end();

    ```


    ### 3. Python

    ```python

    import requests


    url = "https://api.dexpaprika.com/networks/ethereum/pools"


    response = requests.get(url)

    if response.status_code == 200:
        print(response.json())
    else:
        print(f"Error: {response.status_code} -> {response.text}")
    ```

    ### 4. PHP

    ```php

    <?php

    $curl = curl_init();


    curl_setopt_array($curl, array(
      CURLOPT_URL => "https://api.dexpaprika.com/networks/ethereum/pools",
      CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true
    ));


    $response = curl_exec($curl);


    if(curl_errno($curl)) {
      echo "Error: " . curl_error($curl);
    } else {
      echo $response;
    }


    curl_close($curl);

    ?>

    ```


    ### 5. Java

    ```java

    import java.io.*;

            try {
                URL url = new URL("https://api.dexpaprika.com/networks/ethereum/pools");
                HttpURLConnection con = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
                con.setRequestMethod("GET");
                int responseCode = con.getResponseCode();
                try (BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(con.getInputStream()))) {
                    String inputLine;
                    StringBuilder content = new StringBuilder();
                    while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null) {
                        content.append(inputLine);
                    }
                    if (responseCode == 200) {
                        System.out.println(content.toString());
                    } else {
                        System.out.println("Error: " + responseCode);
                    }
                }
            } catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
    }

    ```

    func main() {
        client := &http.Client{}
        req, err := http.NewRequest("GET", "https://api.dexpaprika.com/networks/ethereum/pools", nil)
        if err != nil {
            log.Fatal(err)
        }

        resp, err := client.Do(req)
        if err != nil {
            log.Fatal(err)
        }
        defer resp.Body.Close()

        body, err := ioutil.ReadAll(resp.Body)
        if err != nil {
            log.Fatal(err)
        }

        if resp.StatusCode == http.StatusOK {
            fmt.Println(string(body))
        } else {
            fmt.Printf("Error: %d -> %s\n", resp.StatusCode, body)
        }
    }
