Fireblocks API Java SDK (beta)

Visit this link to try out the new Java SDK beta. Instructions for setup and usage can be found in the Github readme.

Java developers have two options to interact with the Fireblocks API:

  1. Use the Fireblocks API Java SDK (currently in beta)
  2. Use the standard HTTP REST requests when calling the Fireblocks API

In this guide, we explain in detail the setup for the "non-SDK" usage (including signing the JWT token).

Using the Fireblocks API

Install Java 8 or newer

While this guide specifies Java 8 or newer. You can check which version of Java you already have installed by running the following command.

java -version

Learn how to install or update Java to a newer version.

Your First Fireblocks Java program!

Now that you're set up, run a quick check for the API. The script will query existing vaults, create a new vault and then query again to see that the vaults were created.

This Maven-based implementation will require some library dependencies:

📘

Use the correct API Base URL

In the following script, make sure you're using the correct value for baseUrl for your environment:

  • For Sandbox workspaces: https://sandbox-api.fireblocks.io
  • For Mainnet or Testnet workspaces: https://api.fireblocks.io

Learn more about workspace differences.
