User Profiles and Linked Wallets
Art Blocks users can link multiple wallets to a single profile.
,
, and

The
field in results is the full project ID used by all downstream tools:
<contract_address>-<project_index>
Example:

Use this directly with
,
get_project_minter_config
,
build_purchase_transaction
, and
check_allowlist_eligibility

Following Up with GraphQL
The domain-specific tools above handle most use cases. For deeper data (sales history, aggregations, custom joins), use the GraphQL tools (
