Advanced API Overview
The Advanced API simplifies access to blockchain data by offering data cuts which are hard to get via the native Ethereum API, and offers aggregated and filtered data in a single API call. The Advanced API provides access to token balances for accounts, transactions and transfers for accounts, smart contract event logs, and more.
