    Finalized Metrics

    Santiment provides a way to access finalized metric data points through our API. Data points are flagged as final for a given interval, meaning no further backfills or adjustments will occur for that timestamp. This is especially useful when you need guaranteed consistency for analysis, dashboards, or reporting.

    📖

    Finalized here means the value is considered final for the requested interval. It does not change afterwards due to late-arriving data or corrections.

    How to request finalized data

    Set onlyFinalizedData: true in your GraphQL query. For example, requesting daily finalized Transaction Volume for Bitcoin Cash:

    1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
{
  getMetric(metric: "transaction_volume"){
    timeseriesDataJson(
      selector:{slug: "bitcoin-cash"}
      from: "utc_now-6h"
      to: "utc_now"
      interval: "5m"
      onlyFinalizedData: true
    )
  }
}

    Run in explorer

    Supported scope (WIP)

    This feature is currently in testing and implemented for Bitcoin Cash and for a limited subset of metrics:

    • active_addresses_1h
    • active_addresses_24h
    • active_addresses_30d
    • active_addresses_7d
    • active_addresses_delta_1h
    • active_addresses_delta_24h
    • active_addresses_delta_30d
    • active_addresses_delta_7d
    • nvt_transaction_volume
    • stack_age_consumed_5min
    • transaction_volume
    • transaction_volume_5min

    The assets and metrics coverage will expand in the future.

    ❗

    Requesting finalized data introduces additional latency.
