Network Node API

This section describes the Network Node API, specifically the /v1/epochs/{epoch_id}/participants endpoint. This endpoint is used to retrieve:

• Merkle proofs
• Host data
• Validator signatures

Usage

Current Epoch Data

curl -X GET http://<your_api_node_url:public_port>/v1/epochs/current/participants

Specific Epoch Data

curl -X GET http://<your_api_node_url:public_port>/v1/epochs/<epoch_id>/participants
