API

A unified API for the new financial stack.

Prerequisites

Before integrating with orda, ensure you're familiar with the following key concepts and workflows:

  • Project clientID & secret vs recipient Id (Learn more about auth here)

  • How to request & execute a quote

  • Monitoring a quote/transaction

  • Monetizing your order flow

  • Create your account.

After registering, you'll need to generate a project key to start interacting with the orda API.

Core Concepts

Authentication Types

orda uses two distinct authentication concepts:

  • Project Client ID & Secret: Used to authenticate your application's API requests

  • Recipient Client ID: Identifies entities that can receive funds within your project

See the Authentication Guide for implementation details.

Transaction Flow

A typical transaction in orda follows this process:

1. Request a quote for a specific value transfer

2. Execute the quote to initiate the transaction

3. Monitor the transaction status through completion

Creating a project

Head to our dev portal to obtain your Client ID and Client Secret, and follow these steps:

  1. Enter your Project Name to identify your integration.

  2. Add a project description (optional) for internal specification.

  3. Add Members (optional) who require access to the project.

  4. Click Generate Key. Your Client ID & Client Secret will be displayed.

  5. Securely store your Client Secret.

For security reasons, Client Secrets are only displayed once upon creation. Make sure to store it securely.

Managing or Starting your Integration

  1. Log in or sign up on the dev portal

  2. Navigate to the “Projects” section

  3. Select the project you want to use or create a new one

  4. Your Client ID will be displayed, and you can generate a new Client Secret

Next Steps

Once a project is created, you’ll receive a unique client ID & secret. Continue with the guides or API reference to properly integrate with orda to begin securely signing requests across blockchains & banking networks.
