Use your account through an API

Feb 3, 2023

You can use the Strike API to act on your account programmatically, automate tasks, integrate it into your tools, or direct an AI agent to act on your behalf. Send and receive payments over Lightning and on-chain, buy and sell bitcoin, move funds in and out, and read balances and rates. The API was receive-only before, so sending is the change that opens full payments use.

Start with the revamped docs, the sending-payments guide, and the example apps. Generate keys with the scopes you define in the web app, where you also check balances or revoke keys, and test without real funds in the sandbox.
