Chainalysis — public sanctions screening (reference)

Educational routing only. This skill does not reproduce Chainalysis Terms of Use, Privacy Policy, or other legal text. For binding terms, rate limits, signup URLs, and contract addresses, use Chainalysis’s current public documentation and dashboards.

What the public product family covers (high level)

Surface Role (conceptual)
Sanctions API REST service: check whether a cryptocurrency address appears on sanctions-related listings Chainalysis exposes for this API (commonly described in relation to OFAC SDN crypto addresses). Authenticate with an API key (typically X-API-Key header).
Oracle (EVM) On-chain smart contract aimed at dApps that need in-protocol screening—upstream docs describe a narrower scope than the API (e.g. Ethereum/EVM address checks vs API response shape).

Customers: If you use paid Chainalysis products, upstream docs note you may receive broader identifications (e.g. Chainalysis Identifications, clustering beyond what the free public API exposes). Treat customer docs and contracts as authoritative for your org.

Integration facts to verify live (do not trust stale copies)

  • No browser CORS: Public docs state the API is not meant for direct cross-origin browser calls—use a backend or server-side caller.
  • Authentication: Requests typically send X-API-KEY / X-API-Key (confirm header name in current docs).
  • Example host pattern seen in public materials: https://public.chainalysis.com/api/v1/address/<address>paths and versions change; copy from official docs before shipping.
  • Rate limits: Documentation cites high-volume windows (e.g. thousands of requests per few minutes)—confirm the current limit in official docs; 429/403 handling belongs in your integration.
