curl

curl -s https://api.growthepie.com/v1/export/txcount.json

Python

response.raise_for_status()

rows = response.json()
print(f"rows={len(rows)}")
print(rows[0])

JavaScript / TypeScript

const url = "https://api.growthepie.com/v1/export/txcount.json";

const response = await fetch(url);
if (!response.ok) {
  throw new Error(`Request failed with status ${response.status}`);
}

const rows = await response.json();
console.log(`rows=${rows.length}`);
console.log(rows[0]);

Real Task: Fetch One Chain's Transaction Count History

import requests

url = "https://api.growthepie.com/v1/export/txcount.json"
rows = requests.get(url, timeout=30).json()

arbitrum_rows = [row for row in rows if row["origin_key"] == "arbitrum"]
print(arbitrum_rows[:3])

FAQ

What should I fetch before choosing an origin_key?

Fetch master.json. master.json is the canonical metadata file for supported chains and supported metrics.

When should I use fundamentals.json instead?

Use fundamentals.json when you want many fundamental metrics together in one 90-day daily export.
