# API Methods

The OptSwap API is queryable using standard HTTPS (REST) requests. 

{% hint style="info" %}
The OptSwap API is read-only, limited in scope and has been developed to overcome some of the drawbacks of querying The Graph (specifically the lack of grouping and aggregation). It cannot be used to send transactions or interact with the smart contracts.
{% endhint %}
