Programmatic Access

Overview

This guide walks through every capability of the Yield.xyz Programmatic API. Use it to automate project provisioning, API key lifecycle, yield enablement, fee configuration, and reporting — all without touching the dashboard.

For background on what Programmatic Access is and when to use it, see the Programmatic Access documentation.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, you need a Programmatic Access API Key:

Go to dashboard.yield.xyz

Open the Developers section

Click your avatar (top-right) → </> Developers

Create an Admin API Key

Click Create API Key and store the key securely — it is only displayed once

All requests in this guide require the following header:

X-ADMIN-API-KEY: <your-admin-api-key>

Base URL:

https://api.stakek.it

Projects

A project maps to a logical grouping — typically one per client, workspace, or environment. Each project has its own API keys, enabled yields, and fee configurations.

Create a Project

curl -X POST https://api.stakek.it/v1/programmatic/projects \
  -H "X-ADMIN-API-KEY: <your-admin-api-key>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "Acme Corp",
    "description": "Production yield integration"
  }'

Response:

{
  "id": "b1c2d3e4-...",
  "name": "Acme Corp",
  "description": "Production yield integration",
  "teamId": "a1b2c3d4-...",
  "autoComplaintBansEnabled": false,
  "createdAt": "2026-03-05T10:00:00.000Z",
  "updatedAt": "2026-03-05T10:00:00.000Z",
  "deletedAt": null
}

List Projects

curl https://api.stakek.it/v1/programmatic/projects \
  -H "X-ADMIN-API-KEY: <your-admin-api-key>"

Returns all projects belonging to your team.

Update a Project

curl -X PATCH https://api.stakek.it/v1/programmatic/projects/{projectId} \
  -H "X-ADMIN-API-KEY: <your-admin-api-key>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "Acme Corp (Updated)",
    "autoComplaintBansEnabled": true
  }'

Field	Type	Required	Description
`name`	string	No	Updated project name
`description`	string	No	Updated description
`autoComplaintBansEnabled`	boolean	No	Enable/disable auto-ban on complaints

Delete a Project

curl -X DELETE https://api.stakek.it/v1/programmatic/projects/{projectId} \
  -H "X-ADMIN-API-KEY: <your-admin-api-key>"

Soft-deletes the project and associated resources.

API Keys

API keys are scoped to a project. These are the keys your application passes to the Yield API (X-API-KEY header) for staking, balance, and action requests.

Create a Key

curl -X POST https://api.stakek.it/v1/programmatic/projects/{projectId}/keys \
  -H "X-ADMIN-API-KEY: <your-admin-api-key>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "Production Key",
    "info": "Used by backend services"
  }'

Response:

{
  "id": "k1e2y3...",
  "apiKey": "sk_live_32refr-rwer231...",
  "name": "Production Key",
  "info": "Used by backend services",
  "category": "default",
  "projectId": "b1c2d3e4-...",
  "lastUsedAt": null,
  "createdAt": "2026-03-05T10:00:00.000Z",
  "updatedAt": "2026-03-05T10:00:00.000Z",
  "deletedAt": null
}

The apiKey value is only returned at creation time. Store it securely immediately — you will not be able to retrieve it again.

List Keys

curl https://api.stakek.it/v1/programmatic/projects/{projectId}/keys \
  -H "X-ADMIN-API-KEY: <your-admin-api-key>"

Update a Key

curl -X PATCH https://api.stakek.it/v1/programmatic/projects/{projectId}/keys/{keyId} \
  -H "X-ADMIN-API-KEY: <your-admin-api-key>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "Updated Key Name",
    "info": "Updated metadata"
  }'

Delete a Key

curl -X DELETE https://api.stakek.it/v1/programmatic/projects/{projectId}/keys/{keyId} \
  -H "X-ADMIN-API-KEY: <your-admin-api-key>"

Soft-deletes the key. It will no longer authenticate Yield API requests.

Enabled Yields

Control which yield integrations are available for a project. An integration is a specific yield opportunity identified by an integrationId (e.g., ethereum-eth-lido-staking, optimism-usdt-aave-v3-lending).

List Enabled Yields

curl "https://api.stakek.it/v1/programmatic/projects/{projectId}/yields/enabled?page=1&limit=10" \
  -H "X-ADMIN-API-KEY: <your-admin-api-key>"

Response:

{
  "data": [
    { "integrationId": "ethereum-eth-lido-staking" },
    { "integrationId": "optimism-usdt-aave-v3-lending" }
  ],
  "hasNextPage": false,
  "page": 1,
  "limit": 10
}

Query Parameter	Type	Default	Description
`page`	number	1	Page number
`limit`	number	10	Items per page

Enable Yields (Bulk)

curl -X POST https://api.stakek.it/v1/programmatic/projects/{projectId}/yields/enabled \
  -H "X-ADMIN-API-KEY: <your-admin-api-key>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '[
    { "integrationId": "ethereum-eth-lido-staking" },
    { "integrationId": "optimism-usdt-aave-v3-lending" },
    { "integrationId": "arbitrum-eth-aave-v3-lending" }
  ]'

You can curate bundles of yield integrations (e.g., “Stablecoin Conservative”, “Blue-chip DeFi”) and enable an entire bundle in a single call by passing all the relevant integrationId values.

Disable a Single Yield

curl -X DELETE https://api.stakek.it/v1/programmatic/projects/{projectId}/yields/enabled/{integrationId} \
  -H "X-ADMIN-API-KEY: <your-admin-api-key>"

Disable Yields (Bulk)

curl -X DELETE https://api.stakek.it/v1/programmatic/projects/{projectId}/yields/enabled \
  -H "X-ADMIN-API-KEY: <your-admin-api-key>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "integrationIds": [
      "ethereum-eth-lido-staking",
      "optimism-usdt-aave-v3-lending"
    ]
  }'

Fee Configuration

Configure fees on a per-integration basis within a project. Fees are expressed in basis points (bps), where 100 bps = 1%.

Applying fees may require Yield.xyz to deploy onchain infrastructure (e.g., an OAV or fee wrapper). The fee configuration status reflects this lifecycle: REQUESTED → PROCESSING → LIVE.

Create a Fee Configuration

curl -X POST https://api.stakek.it/v1/programmatic/projects/{projectId}/fee-configuration \
  -H "X-ADMIN-API-KEY: <your-admin-api-key>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "integrationId": "optimism-usdt-aave-v3-lending",
    "depositFeeBps": 50,
    "performanceFeeBps": 1000
  }'

This configures a 0.5% deposit fee and 10% performance fee on the Aave USDT lending pool on Optimism. Response:

{
  "id": "fc1e2...",
  "projectId": "b1c2d3e4-...",
  "integrationId": "optimism-usdt-aave-v3-lending",
  "depositFeeBps": 50,
  "managementFeeBps": null,
  "performanceFeeBps": 1000,
  "allocatorVaultContractAddress": null,
  "feeWrapperContractAddress": null,
  "status": "REQUESTED"
}

Field	Type	Required	Description
`integrationId`	string	Yes	Target yield integration
`depositFeeBps`	number	No	Deposit fee in bps (1–10000)
`managementFeeBps`	number	No	Management fee in bps (1–10000)
`performanceFeeBps`	number	No	Performance fee in bps (1–10000)

List Fee Configurations

curl "https://api.stakek.it/v1/programmatic/projects/{projectId}/fee-configuration?page=1&limit=10" \
  -H "X-ADMIN-API-KEY: <your-admin-api-key>"

Update a Fee Configuration

curl -X PATCH https://api.stakek.it/v1/programmatic/projects/{projectId}/fee-configuration/{feeConfigurationId} \
  -H "X-ADMIN-API-KEY: <your-admin-api-key>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "performanceFeeBps": 500
  }'

Pass null for a fee field to remove it.

Delete a Fee Configuration

curl -X DELETE https://api.stakek.it/v1/programmatic/projects/{projectId}/fee-configuration/{feeConfigurationId} \
  -H "X-ADMIN-API-KEY: <your-admin-api-key>"

}

Recommended Provisioning Flow

A typical integration follows this sequence when onboarding a new client or workspace:

Create a project

POST /v1/programmatic/projects — one project per client or workspace

Mint an API key

POST /v1/programmatic/projects/{projectId}/keys — the key is used by the client or your backend to call the Yield API

Enable yields

POST /v1/programmatic/projects/{projectId}/yields/enabled — enable a curated set of yield integrations

Configure fees (optional)

POST /v1/programmatic/projects/{projectId}/fee-configuration — apply deposit, management, or performance fees

Monitor with reports

GET /v1/programmatic/report-entries — pull activity data for reconciliation and analytics

Fee Configuration Lifecycle

When a fee configuration is created, it may go through several statuses before becoming active:

Status	Description
`REQUESTED`	Fee configuration has been submitted
`PROCESSING`	Yield.xyz is deploying the required onchain infrastructure (OAV or fee wrapper)
`LIVE`	Fee configuration is active and being applied
`CHANGES_REQUESTED`	An update has been requested and is being processed

Some fee configurations require Yield.xyz to deploy a dedicated Optimized Allocator Vault (OAV) or fee wrapper contract onchain. This is handled automatically — the status field reflects the deployment progress.
