Public Nova API requests do not require an API key or Authorization header: 
curl "https://api-nova.tech/v1/data/tokens/search?query=bonk"

​
Open Public Access

The public API is intended for browser playgrounds, docs examples, demos, and lightweight integrations. Send public-chain identifiers only.

​
Public User Context

When an endpoint needs user context, pass the public wallet address: 
{
  "walletAddress": "9xQeWvG816bUx9EPfQ5D9b8fRGyJitf8F6f4fH6QJjAo"
}
That keeps the playground easy to understand and safe to expose.

​
Rate Limits

Nova uses layered rate limits:
  • Per IP
  • Per IP for docs playground traffic
  • Per endpoint
  • Per high-cost capability, such as wallet trade history or Nova Bridge route plans
If a request is limited, Nova returns 429 with retry guidance.

​
Safe Use

Do not send private keys, seed phrases, recovery phrases, passcodes, backup codes, or signing payloads. Wallet approvals and signing stay in the wallet.
