API Guides
A unified API for the new financial stack
Prerequisites
Before integrating with orda, ensure you're familiar with the following key concepts and workflows:
Project clientID & secret vs recipient Id (Learn more about auth here)
How to request & execute a quote
Monitoring a quote/transaction
Monetizing your order flow
Create your account.
After registering, you'll need to generate a project key to start interacting with the orda API.
Core Concepts
Authentication Types
orda uses two distinct authentication concepts:
Project Client ID & Secret: Used to authenticate your application's API requests
Recipient Client ID: Identifies entities that can receive funds within your project
See the Authentication Guide for implementation details.
Transaction Flow
A typical transaction in orda follows this process:
1. Request a quote for a specific value transfer
2. Execute the quote to initiate the transaction
3. Monitor the transaction status through completion
Creating a project
Head to our dev portal to obtain your Client ID and Client Secret, and follow these steps:
Enter your Project Name to identify your integration.
Add a project description (optional) for internal specification.
Add Members (optional) who require access to the project.
Click Generate Key. Your Client ID & Client Secret will be displayed.
Securely store your Client Secret.
For security reasons, Client Secrets are only displayed once upon creation. Make sure to store it securely.
Managing or Starting your Integration
Log in or sign up on the dev portal
Navigate to the “Projects” section
Select the project you want to use or create a new one
Your Client ID will be displayed, and you can generate a new Client Secret
Next Steps
Once a project is created, you’ll receive a unique client ID & secret. Continue with the guides or API reference to properly integrate with orda to begin securely signing requests across blockchains & banking networks.
