Quote

This endpoint facilitates the creation of a potential quote for executing a swap between two assets. It allows users to obtain pricing information and other essential details necessary to initiate asset swaps within the system. Use this endpoint to explore the potential cost and feasibility of asset exchanges before finalizing transactions.

Request

Body Param	Description	Example
chain_id	Integer - Required ID of the chain	"chain_id": 137
time_in_seconds	Integer - Optional Amount of time between accepting a quote and receiving the quote on the blockchain. As this value increases, the quote will get worse for the user.	"time_in_seconds": 30
output_amount	Integer/String - Optional Desired quantity of assets to receive as part of the swap This field is mutually exclusive with input_amount	"output_amount": "18000" output_amount: 18000
input_amount	Integer/String - Optional Desired quantity of assets you are willing to exchange This field is mutually exclusive with output_amount	"input_amount": "18000" input_amount: 18000
input_asset_symbol	String - Required Identifier of the asset you want to provide for the swap Should correspond to the asset name returned from the pool call	"input_asset_symbol": "ETH"
output_asset_symbol	String - Required Identifier of the asset you want to receive in the swap Should correspond to the asset name returned from the pool call	"output_asset_symbol": "DAI"

Response

good_until	Integer - number of seconds that quotes live
chain_id	Integer - Represents the ID of the chain
input_asset_address	String - Contract address of the asset you want to provide for the swap

created_at	Integer - Unix Timestamp indicating the date and time when the quote was created
rate	Float - swap rate
