Marketplace Stats, Treasury, and other tasks

Get marketplace stats, check and withdraw treasury balance.

In our previous tutorials about SHYFT's Marketplace APIs, we have seen how we can create and set up a marketplace using custom tokens, Listing NFTs in a marketplace, buying NFTs from a marketplace, and getting active listings from a marketplace. However, SHYFT Marketplace APIs offer a lot more services for having more control and easier management of the marketplace. Let us explore a few of the services which SHYFT's Marketplace APIs have to offer.

This tutorial is a part of a series, please make sure you have gone through the previous parts here

1. Build Your First NFT Marketplace

2. List and buy NFTs in your marketplace

Getting marketplace statistics

SHYFT provides an out-of-the-box stats API for fetching all the relevant marketplace statistics in one call. This removes the requirement of maintaining the marketplace statistics manually using a database, saves time and resources, and makes integration with the front end really easy.

The API endpoint for getting marketplace statistics

GET https://api.shyft.to/sol/v1/marketplace/stats?network=devnet&marketplace_address=54K5BTMj8ynktzEeaD1iGhAJsCN2svBKmD1fTQTonbBB&start_date=2022-09-02&end_date=2022-09-06

Details of the parameter used

Header

1. x-api-key : The x-api-key is a parameter that is required to use SHYFT APIs. It is used by SHYFT for authorization purposes. You can get your x-api-key for free from the SHYFT Website.

Parameters

1. network (required parameter) : Selects the Solana blockchain network instance, which can be devnet,testnet or mainnet-beta.

2. marketplace_address (required parameter) : Address of the marketplace whose detailed statistics we want to fetch. In our case, this will be the marketplace we created two tutorials back.

3. start_date : This field accepts the date as an input in yyyy-mm-dd format. This acts as a filter for fetching all the statistics of a marketplace after a specified date. If empty, returns all the statistics since the day the marketplace was created.

4. end_date : This field accepts the date as an input in yyyy-mm-dd format. This acts as a filter for fetching all the statistics of a marketplace up to a specified date. If empty, returns all the statistics up to a day before the current date.

start_date and end_date are both optional parameters and they can be used together to fetch statistics between the dates.

Response on successful execution:

{
  "success": true,
  "message": "Marketplace stats fetched successfully",
  "result": {
    "total_sales": 1, // total no. of NFTs sold 
    "sales_volume": 0.1, // total value worth of NFTs sold
    "total_sellers": 1, // no. of unique sellers in the marketplace
    "total_listings": 2, // no. of NFTs listed
    "listed_volume": 0.2 // total value worth of NFTs listed for sale
  }
}

Let's see what information we receive from SHYFT's stats API.

1. total_sales : This field indicates the total number of NFTs sold in the marketplace.

2. sales_volume : This field indicates the total amount (in marketplace currency) of sales that has taken place in the marketplace.

3. total_sellers : This field indicates the number of unique sellers in the marketplace.

4. total_listings : This field indicates the total number of NFTs listed in the marketplace.

5. listed_volume : This field indicates the total value (in marketplace currency) of listed NFTs in the marketplace.

Getting the marketplace’s treasury balance

Whenever an NFT is sold from the marketplace, a small percentage of the cost of the NFT is added to the marketplace treasury. This percentage is set by the marketplace creator when the marketplace is created (by default it is 2%). Let's see how you can check the current marketplace treasury balance.

API for checking the marketplace treasury balance

GET https://api.shyft.to/sol/v1/marketplace/treasury_balance?network=devnet&marketplace_address=54K5BTMj8ynktzEeaD1iGhAJsCN2svBKmD1fTQTonbBB

Details of the parameters used:

1. network : Selects the Solana blockchain network instance, which can be devnet,testnet or mainnet-beta.

2. marketplace_address : Address of the marketplace whose treasury balance we are attempting to fetch.

Response:

{
    "success": true,
    "message": "treasury balance fetched successfully",
    "result": {
        "amount": 1.56,
        "symbol": "SOL"
    }
}

The result field should contain the amount which is the treasury_balance and the currency symbol for the marketplace. Now, let's see how we can withdraw this balance from the marketplace treasury.

Withdraw money from the marketplace treasury

We have learned how we can view (or fetch) our marketplace treasury balance. Now let’s see how we can withdraw money from our marketplace treasury. Please note that only the wallet which was set as the fee_recipient during marketplace creation has the authority to withdraw money from the marketplace treasury.

API for withdrawing fees from the marketplace treasury:

POST https://api.shyft.to/sol/v1/marketplace/withdraw_fee

The Request Header

{
    "Content_Type": "application/json",

  "authority_wallet": "Eb3ykuiCtvGcqs4XRCASThFf4EUxrL7k3TZsytWkXTBe"
