Overview
The Universal API is Moralis’ unified, multichain Data API, designed to provide a single, consistent interface for accessing blockchain data across 30+ supported chains, including both EVM networks and Solana. It standardizes complex on-chain data into clean, developer-friendly formats, allowing you to build multichain applications without handling chain-specific differences.What the Universal API Is For
The Universal API is intended for:- Applications that support both EVM and Solana
- Teams building chain-agnostic products
- Use cases where a consistent data model across chains is more important than chain-specific depth
Consolidation Strategy
Moralis is gradually consolidating cross-chain functionality into the Universal API. This means:- New multichain endpoints are added to the Universal API
- Existing EVM- or Solana-specific endpoints may be mirrored or superseded over time
- No breaking changes are introduced without notice
When to Use the Universal API
Use the Universal API if you:- Need the same endpoint to work across EVM and Solana
- Want to minimize chain-specific logic
- Are building dashboards, analytics, or wallets that span multiple ecosystems
When Not to Use It
For advanced, chain-specific features, you may still want:- EVM API for deep EVM-only functionality
- Solana Data API for Solana-specific data and semantics
