Spot swap (submit signed permits)
POST/v1/actions/swap/spot
Same parameters as GET. The JSON body carries the two-call permit contract: permits (signed offers from a previous response) and optionally builds (the previous response's buildIds, spliced without re-quoting).
Permit flow (permit=auto): the response additionally carries actions.signatures[] (an EIP-712 permit to sign instead of the approve — the spot spender is always the 1delta composer, so ONE signature covers every alternative) and a buildId per quote row. Sign, then POST the same endpoint with {permits: [{permitId, signature}], builds: [buildId]} — the cached builds are re-headed with the permit and answered without re-quoting; the approve permission disappears. BUILD_EXPIRED (builds live ~3 min) means re-quote and resubmit the SAME signature. Without builds, a POST with permits re-quotes and threads the permit into the fresh calldata.

Parameters
| Parameter | In | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
chainId | query | string | yes | Chain ID See the ChainId schema for the full set of supported chains. |
tokenIn | query | string | yes | Input token address |
tokenOut | query | string | yes | Output token address |
amount | query | string | yes | Amount in wei |
slippage | query | number | yes | Slippage tolerance (basis points) |
account | query | string | no | Account address. Include to build transaction, omit for quote-only. |
receiver | query | string | no | Receiver address |
tradeType | query | 0, 1 | no | Trade type (0=EXACT_INPUT, 1=EXACT_OUTPUT) |
usePendleMintRedeem | query | boolean | no | Use Pendle mint/redeem |
permit | query | off, auto, required | no | Permit mode: 'off' (default) approve-only; 'auto' additionally offers a permit signature when the token supports one; 'required' fails with PERMIT_UNAVAILABLE when none exists. |
Request body
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
permits | object[] | no | Signed permits from a previous response of the SAME endpoint. |
permits[].permitId | string | yes | The permitId from signatures[] |
permits[].signature | string | yes | The eth_signTypedData_v4 signature (0x-hex) |
builds | string[] | no | buildIds from the previous response's quote rows. When present alongside permits, the cached builds are re-headed with the permit — no re-quote, the price you saw is the price you execute. Builds expire after ~3 minutes; a BUILD_EXPIRED error means re-quote and resubmit the SAME signature (the permit binds token/spender/value, not the route). |
Response 200
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
success | True | |
data | object | Full build response for spot swap (account provided). |
data.currencyIn | object | Input currency info |
data.currencyOut | object | Output currency info |
data.quotes | object[] | Candidate routes, best output first. Execute exactly one. |
data.quotes[].aggregator | string | |
data.quotes[].tradeInput | number | |
data.quotes[].tradeOutput | number | |
data.quotes[].tx | object | An EVM transaction ready to sign and broadcast. Send to, data and value as-is; do not re-encode them. |
data.quotes[].tx.chainType | evm | Which VM executes this step. ABSENT means evm, which is the only value any endpoint returns today — every EVM response is unchanged. A non-EVM chain would return a different shape (a serialized, PERISHABLE transaction rather than to/data/value) carrying its own chainType, so a client that wants to stay forward-compatible should branch on this field rather than assume to is present. |
data.quotes[].tx.to | string | Target contract address |
data.quotes[].tx.data | string | Encoded calldata |
data.quotes[].tx.value | string | ETH value to send with the transaction |
data.quotes[].tx.description | string | Human-readable label. For alternatives, this is the aggregator name (e.g. "Paraswap"). For transactions, describes the setup action (e.g. "Switch e-mode to 1"). |
data.quotes[].buildId | string | Present when permit=auto|required produced a signature offer. Send it back in the POST body (builds[]) together with the signed permit to splice this exact build — no re-quote. Expires after ~3 minutes. |
data.permissionTxns | object[] | Approvals needed for this specific quote. Most integrators should use the deduplicated envelope-level actions.permissions instead. |
data.permissionTxns[].to | string | Target contract address |
data.permissionTxns[].data | string | Encoded calldata |
data.permissionTxns[].value | string | ETH value |
data.permissionTxns[].description | string | Human-readable description of the approval (e.g. "Approve borrow for AAVE_V3", "Approve ERC20") |
data.permissionTxns[].spender | string | ERC-20 approve spender (x-chain permissions). Match it against the selected quote's approvalTarget — several bridges can share one spender, so do not match by description. |
data.permissionTxns[].type | ERC20, Lender | What kind of grant this is. A signatures[] offer names the type it replaces via its replaces field. |
actions | object | Transaction calldata and approvals. Null for quote-only responses (no account provided). |
actions.transactions | object[] | Pre-trade setup transactions (e.g. e-mode switch, collateral enable). Execute these before the main swap. Empty when no setup is needed. |
actions.transactions[].chainType | evm | Which VM executes this step. ABSENT means evm, which is the only value any endpoint returns today — every EVM response is unchanged. A non-EVM chain would return a different shape (a serialized, PERISHABLE transaction rather than to/data/value) carrying its own chainType, so a client that wants to stay forward-compatible should branch on this field rather than assume to is present. |
actions.transactions[].to | string | Target contract address |
actions.transactions[].data | string | Encoded calldata |
actions.transactions[].value | string | ETH value to send with the transaction |
actions.transactions[].description | string | Human-readable label. For alternatives, this is the aggregator name (e.g. "Paraswap"). For transactions, describes the setup action (e.g. "Switch e-mode to 1"). |
actions.alternatives | object[] | DEX aggregator swap transactions sorted by best output (descending). Each entry's description is the aggregator name. The client should pick one to execute. Present on loop action endpoints. |
actions.alternatives[].chainType | evm | Which VM executes this step. ABSENT means evm, which is the only value any endpoint returns today — every EVM response is unchanged. A non-EVM chain would return a different shape (a serialized, PERISHABLE transaction rather than to/data/value) carrying its own chainType, so a client that wants to stay forward-compatible should branch on this field rather than assume to is present. |
actions.alternatives[].to | string | Target contract address |
actions.alternatives[].data | string | Encoded calldata |
actions.alternatives[].value | string | ETH value to send with the transaction |
actions.alternatives[].description | string | Human-readable label. For alternatives, this is the aggregator name (e.g. "Paraswap"). For transactions, describes the setup action (e.g. "Switch e-mode to 1"). |
actions.permissions | object[] | Approval/delegation transactions that must execute before both transactions and alternatives. Includes ERC20 allowances (targeting the composer contract) and lender borrow/withdrawal delegations (targeting the lending protocol contract directly). Filtered against on-chain state so only missing approvals are returned. Null when no approvals are needed. |
actions.permissions[].to | string | Target contract address |
actions.permissions[].data | string | Encoded calldata |
actions.permissions[].value | string | ETH value |
actions.permissions[].description | string | Human-readable description of the approval (e.g. "Approve borrow for AAVE_V3", "Approve ERC20") |

Spot swap build with the permit spliced in
Validation error
Rate limited. Unauthenticated callers share a per-IP budget; send an x-api-key header to lift it. Retry with exponential backoff.
Unexpected server error. Safe to retry with backoff.
An upstream data source or protocol origin failed (error.code is ORIGIN_FAILED). error.details carries the per-origin status. This is also what a missing or malformed required parameter currently returns, rather than a 400.
