What is Qwery Dashboard?

Qwery Dashboard is a web application that lets you manage your access to the Solana API. Think of it as your control panel for getting blockchain data from Solana.

What Can You Do Here?

1. Connect Your Wallet

When you first visit the website, you'll see a "Connect Wallet" button. Click it to log in using your Phantom wallet (a Solana cryptocurrency wallet). This is how the website knows who you are - no passwords needed!

2. View Your Dashboard

After connecting your wallet, you'll see your personal dashboard. This shows:

  • How many API requests you've made

  • Charts showing your usage over time

  • Quick links to manage your API keys

3. Create API Keys

API keys are like passwords that let your apps talk to the Solana blockchain through our service. To create one:

  • Go to "API Keys" in the navigation menu

  • Click the "+ New API Key" button

  • Give your key a name (like "My App" or "Production Key")

  • Click "Create API Key"

  • IMPORTANT: Copy the key immediately and save it somewhere safe! You won't see it again.

4. Manage Your API Keys

On the API Keys page, you can:

  • See all your API keys

  • Copy them to use in your applications

  • Delete keys you no longer need

  • See how many times each key has been used

5. Read the Documentation

The Documentation page explains all the different API endpoints (URLs) you can use to get Solana blockchain data. Each endpoint shows:

  • What it does

  • What information you need to send

  • Example code showing how to use it

How to Use Your API Keys

Once you have an API key, you can use it to make requests to our API. Here's a simple example:

When making a request to our API, include your key in the header like this: Header: X-API-Key: your_key_here

For example, to get token prices, you would send a request to: https://api.qwery.xyz/api/v1/token-price

And include your API key in the request headers.

Tips for Using the Dashboard

  1. Save Your API Keys: When you create a new key, copy it immediately. For security, we only show the full key once.

  2. Name Your Keys: Give each key a descriptive name so you know which app or project it's for.

  3. Monitor Usage: Check your dashboard regularly to see your API usage and make sure everything is working correctly.

  4. Delete Unused Keys: If you stop using a key, delete it from the dashboard for better security.

  5. Keep Keys Secret: Never share your API keys publicly or commit them to public code repositories (like GitHub).

Understanding API Keys

What is an API Key?

An API key is a unique identifier that lets you access our Solana API services. It's like a special code that proves you're allowed to use our service.

Key Formats

All Qwery API keys start with "qwery_" followed by a long string of random characters.Example: qwery_abc123xyz789...

Full Key vs Prefix

  • Full Key: The complete key you get when you first create it. This is what you use in your applications.

  • Prefix Only: After creation, we only show the first part (prefix) of your key in the dashboard for security. The full key is stored securely in our database.

Security & Best Practices

Do's:

  • Save your API keys in a secure location (password manager, environment variables)

  • Use different keys for different projects

  • Delete keys you're no longer using

  • Monitor your usage for any unusual activity

Don'ts:

  • Share your API keys with others

  • Post keys in public forums or social media

  • Commit keys to public GitHub repositories

  • Use the same key for everything

Technical Requirements

To use this dashboard, you need:

  • A modern web browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge)

  • A Phantom wallet extension installed in your browser

  • A Solana wallet address with some SOL (for wallet connection)

  • Internet connection

What Makes This Dashboard Special

Dark Theme

The entire dashboard uses a true black theme that's easy on your eyes and perfect for OLED screens. It looks professional and saves battery on mobile devices.

Wallet Authentication

No need to remember passwords! You log in using your Solana wallet, which is more secure and convenient.

Real-Time Data

Your usage statistics and API key information updates in real-time, so you always see the latest information.

Mobile Friendly

The dashboard works great on phones and tablets, not just computers.

Next Steps

  1. Connect Your Wallet: Click "Connect Wallet" on the home page

  2. Create Your First API Key: Go to API Keys → New API Key

  3. Save Your Key: Copy it and store it securely

  4. Read the Docs: Check out the Documentation page to learn what you can do

  5. Start Building: Use your API key in your applications to access Solana data

Important Notes

  • Your wallet address is your identity: We identify you by your Solana wallet address, not by email or username

  • API keys are stored locally: Full keys are saved in your browser's local storage for convenience

  • Clear cache carefully: If you clear your browser data, you might lose access to viewing your full API keys (though they'll still work)

  • Always stay logged in: Keep your wallet connected while using the dashboard

Understanding API Usage

When you make requests to our API using your key, we track:

  • Request Count: How many times you've called our API

  • Last Used: When your key was last used

  • Daily Usage: A chart showing your usage over time

This helps you:

  • Monitor your application's activity

  • Detect any unusual patterns

  • Plan for scaling your application
