Blockscout smart-contract verification API

Blockscout also offers a contract verification API.

License type

You can specify license type of the smart contract as string or number. For example for GNU General Public License v2.0 (GNU GPLv2) you could pass either 4 or "gnu_gpl_v2"

We are supporting such types of license as:

1. No License (None)
2. The Unlicense (Unlicense)
3. MIT License (MIT)

6. GNU Lesser General Public License v2.1 (GNU LGPLv2.1)
7. GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 (GNU LGPLv3)
8. BSD 2-clause "Simplified" license (BSD-2-Clause)
9. BSD 3-clause "New" Or "Revised" license* (BSD-3-Clause)
10. Mozilla Public License 2.0 (MPL-2.0)
11. Open Software License 3.0 (OSL-3.0)
12. Apache 2.0 (Apache-2.0)
13. GNU Affero General Public License (GNU AGPLv3)
14. Business Source License (BSL 1.1)

API license types:

none
unlicense

gnu_gpl_v3
gnu_lgpl_v2_1
gnu_lgpl_v3
bsd_2_clause
bsd_3_clause
mpl_2_0
osl_3_0
apache_2_0
gnu_agpl_v3
bsl_1_1

Verify smart contract

Use the appropriate Blockscout instance endpoint to verify if the smart contract microservice is enabled.

In the following examples we use https://eth.blockscout.com to query Ethereum.

const data = await response.json();

0x contract addresses in POST example urls below should be replaced with your contract hash supplied on contract creation. Variables in the body are examples and should be replaced with your contract details.

Flattened contract

For more information on parameters to pass, see the flattened source code information on the Verifying a smart contract page.
