# Rosetta API

IoTeX provides an implementation of the [Rosetta API](https://github.com/coinbase/rosetta-sdk-go) Gateway from [Coinbase](https://coinbase.com/). Rosetta is an open standard and a set of tools designed to simplify blockchain deployment and interaction. For more informations about Rosetta see the [project website](https://www.rosetta-api.org/). IoTeX currently support Data API, while Construction API is **coming very soon**.

### Deploy Rosetta Gateway <a href="#deploy-rosetta-gateway" id="deploy-rosetta-gateway"></a>

You can deploy the IoTeX Rosetta gateway along with the IoTeX Mainnet node by following the current Build\&Run documentation for the **IoTeX Rosetta Gateway** on our [GitHub Repository](https://github.com/iotexproject/iotex-core-rosetta-gateway#iotex-gateway-for-rosetta).

### Your Exchange doesn't implement Rosetta? <a href="#your-exchange-doesn-t-implement-rosetta" id="your-exchange-doesn-t-implement-rosetta"></a>

Go ahead, and check out the [general integration guide](broken://pages/-MXiRLKZm8jPXcuMGfoH)!

### Testing <a href="#testing" id="testing"></a>

Once you've fully integrated with the IoTeX blockchain, please make accurate tests on both testnet and mainnet. All states of the IoTeX blockchain can be queried through either the command line tool [ioctl](broken://pages/-MUPPxwTruagQSRZfNAM) or the official IoTeX explorers for ([Mainnet ](https://iotexscan.io/)and [Testnet](https://testnet.iotexscan.io/)).

Please reach to IoTeX Team if you have any question.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.iotex.io/blockchain/build/node-operators/rosetta-api.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
