Lido read-only APIs#

Lido APIs provide read-only data that applications can use for protocol and staking information. The documented API set includes staking APR endpoints and reward-history resources.

Integrators should treat API responses as external data, implement error handling and avoid assuming that a network request will always succeed.

APR and reward data#

The staking APR resources include moving-average and latest APR endpoints. Reward-history tooling can be used to inspect address-level stETH interaction and reward information where supported.

For on-chain truth, applications should still verify the relevant contract state and events when that distinction matters.

Integration guidance#

Use documented schemas, validate response types, cache responsibly and expose stale or unavailable states clearly rather than replacing missing data with fabricated values.

• Verify the intended Ethereum network and canonical deployed addresses.
• Handle unavailable or stale external data explicitly.
• Test token accounting and conversion behavior before production release.
