Portal API methods
Portal API's convenient helper methods are designed to streamline data retrieval from the Portal REST API.
portal.api
portal.apiThe api property contains an instance of the PortalApi class, which has a number of helper methods to facilitate the retrieval of relevant application data from the Portal REST API.
portal.api.getNFTs
portal.api.getNFTsFetches a list of non-fungible tokens (NFTs). The response is an array of objects where each object represents a unique NFT.
const nfts = await portal.api.getNFTs()Response structure
The response is a JSON array of objects. Each object represents a unique NFT and consists of the following fields:
contract: An object which contains theaddressfield, representing the contract address associated with the NFT.id: An object with the following fields:tokenId: The unique identifier of the NFT within its contract.tokenMetadata: An object containing metadata about the token type.
balance: The balance of the NFT, represented as a string.title: The title of the NFT.description: A description of the NFT.tokenUri: An object withgatewayandrawfields that hold URI links to access the token.media: An array of objects each representing a media file associated with the NFT. Each object includes:gateway: The URL to access the media file.thumbnail: The URL to access the thumbnail image of the media file.raw: The raw link to the media file.format: The format of the media file.bytes: The size of the media file in bytes.
metadata: An object which contains:name: The name of the NFT.description: The description of the NFT.image: The URL to access the image associated with the NFT.external_url: The external URL that provides additional information about the NFT.
timeLastUpdated: The time when the NFT was last updated.contractMetadata: An object which contains additional metadata about the contract, such as:name: The name of the contract.symbol: The symbol of the contract.tokenType: The type of the token. (e.g., ERC1155)contractDeployer: The address of the contract deployer.deployedBlockNumber: The number of the block where the contract was deployed.openSea: An object which contains additional metadata from the OpenSea platform.
This is a general structure and it may contain more fields depending on the NFT and the contract. For example, openSea object in contractMetadata might include information like collectionName, safelistRequestStatus, imageUrl, description, externalUrl, lastIngestedAt, floorPrice, twitterUsername, discordUrl, etc. Always refer to the actual API response for the most accurate information.

]portal.api.getTransactions
portal.api.getTransactionsFetches a list of the client's transaction history ordered by blockTimestamp descending (latest transactions will come first). This includes both inbound and outbound transactions.
const transactions = await portal.api.getTransactions()Optional arguments can also be provided:
limit: (Optional) The maximum number of transactions to return.offset: (Optional) The number of transactions to skip before starting to return.order: (Optional) Order in which to return the transactions. Either"asc"or"desc".chainId: (Optional) ID of the chain to retrieve transactions from. Defaults to your Portal instance's chainId if not provided.
Response structure
The response is a JSON array of objects. Each object represents a unique transaction and consists of the following fields:
blockNum: A string representing the hexadecimal number of the block in which the transaction occurred.uniqueId: A unique string that uniquely identifies this transaction. It is constructed from the transaction's hash and category.hash: A string that represents the hash of the transaction.
