Configure a Ledger
Each tenant of LedgerScan must configure one or more ledgers of which they choose to monitor transactions. A set of preconfigured networks are provided by DTCC and are available for the tenant administrator to map to ledgers. The naming of ledgers are at the discretion of the tenant. For example, for public ledgers a tenant may name a ledger Ethereum Mainnet, E-Mainnet, Ethereum Sepolia, E-Test Ledger, etc. For private ledgers, a tenant may choose to personalize the name such as DTCC Launchpad HL Besu, etc.
Configuring a ledger is a quick and easy sequence of steps as follows:
- 1get
/v1/networks
Provides the list of networks preconfigured in LedgerScan
- 2put
/v1/networks/{name}/ledgers
Creates a new ledger (and can update the ledger)
- 3get
/v1/networks/ledgers
Retrieves the list of ledgers the tenant has configured
TIP: Consider using GET /v1/networks whenever a pull-down list of available ledgers is required within an application (for example: when configuring the tracking of tokens and wallets).
