API

• Recent Updates

  • Channel APIs

    • /feed/channel APIs now show channel member content only by default

  • Algorithmic Ranking

    • MBD as a new feed provider, in addition to Openrank

    • Algo ranking on conversation replies

  • Blocks

    • Fetch blocks, blocked by

    • Blocked users are filtered out by default if you pass in viewer_fid to APIs like /feed and /conversation

  • App level bans

    • Ban certain users from showing up on your app without impacting the rest of the protocol — client level access for app developers

• Up Next

  • Location APIs — location data as part of user object

    • Available next week

    • Fetch users from a specific location — can build but not sure if people need it yet, reach out if interested

  • Twitter usernames — Twitter usernames will be part of hydrated user objects

  • Better embed data in cast objects — we already return metadata for embeds in most cases. Coming next:

    • Quote casts, twitter links

Farcaster Actions

• Read the spec here

• Extends the same sort of auth signature for channel actions to other actions that clients might want to have

• eg. multiple clients using the same bookmarking service, other APIs etc

• Doesn't require Neynar the way the spec is designed(apps can just go through each other), or can use a Neynar POST endpoint so other apps using our signers can build this out

Data Products

• Upcoming — indexing custom schemas

  • Will start simple, timeline still TBD; actively investigating second half of October
