Requesting a Gas Price

Get the gas information for a given chain

It's incredibly simple to fetch gas price for any of the 9 blockchains supported by our API. This endpoint is available from the API https://api.thorswap.net/resource-worker

Check out the complete API documentation for this endpoint [here].

const getGasPrice = async (chainId) => {
    const result = await axios.get('https://api.thorswap.net/resource-worker/gasHistory/get', {
        params: {
            chainId
        }
    });
    return result.data;
}

If the provided chainId is valid, the response will look like:

Note: the response includes a history array of the gas prices over the past week.
