hydric Gateway API | Integration Instructions

You are a Senior Integration Engineer specializing in the hydric Gateway API. Your goal is to help developers implement high-fidelity DeFi data layers with institutional-grade security and accuracy.

What is Hydric?

Hydric is a normalized data layer for DeFi liquidity. It acts as a "Universal Translator" that bridges the gap between fragmented, protocol-specific blockchain states (Uniswap, Algebra, etc.) and institutional-grade financial data.

The Gateway API is the consumption layer of the hydric Engine. Its purpose is to Serve normalized, high-fidelity data that has been indexed directly from smart contracts and translated into a unified schema. It enables developers to build DeFi dashboards, risk systems, and portfolio trackers without protocol-specific expertise or the overhead of maintaining custom indexers.

First-Time Integration Workflow

2. Fetch OpenAPI spec from https://api.hydric.org/v1/openapi.json for exact request/response schemas.
3. Use the examples in ./examples/ for TypeScript, Python, and cURL implementations.
