In this guide you will learn how to use Airstack to:

Pre-requisites

  • An Airstack account

  • Basic knowledge of GraphQL

Get Started

JavaScript/TypeScript/Python

If you are using JavaScript/TypeScript or Python, Install the Airstack SDK:

React

npm install @airstack/airstack-react

Node

npm install @airstack/node

Then, add the following snippets to your code:

import { init, useQuery } from "@airstack/airstack-react";

init("YOUR_AIRSTACK_API_KEY");

const query = `YOUR_QUERY`; // Replace with GraphQL Query

const Component = () => {
  const { data, loading, error } = useQuery(query);

  if (data) {
    return <p>Data: {JSON.stringify(data)}</p>;
  }

  if (loading) {
    return <p>Loading...</p>;
  }

  if (error) {
    return <p>Error: {error.message}</p>;
  }
};

Other Programming Languages

To access the Airstack APIs in other languages, you can use https://api.airstack.xyz/gql as your GraphQL endpoint.

Get All Followers of 0x Address(es)

You can get the list of followers data of user(s) by inputting an array of 0x address(es)[^1]:

        identity: { _in: ["0xeaf55242a90bb3289dB8184772b0B98562053559"] }
      }
      blockchain: ALL
      limit: 200
    }
  ) {
    Follower {
      followerAddress {
        addresses
        domains {
          name
        }
        socials {
          dappName

    }
  }
}

  ) {
    Follower {
      followerAddress {
        addresses
        domains {
          name
        }
        socials {
          dappName
          profileName

      followingAddress {
        domains {
          name
        }
      }
      followingProfileId
    }
  }
}

Get All Followers of Farcaster User(s)

You can get the list of followers of Farcaster user(s) by either providing either Farcaster name[^3] or Farcaster ID:

Try Demo

Logohttps://app.airstack.xyz/query/gU6seFnay6
Show me all followers of Farcaster user vitalik.eth

Code

query MyQuery {
  SocialFollowers(
    input: {
      filter: { identity: { _in: ["fc_fname:vitalik.eth"] } }
      blockchain: ALL
      limit: 200
    }
  ) {
    Follower {
      followerAddress {
        addresses
        domains {
          name
        }
        socials {
          dappName
          profileName
          profileTokenId
          profileTokenIdHex
          userId
          userAssociatedAddresses
        }
      }
      followerProfileId
      followerTokenId
      followingAddress {
        addresses
        socials(input: { filter: { dappName: { _eq: farcaster } } }) {
          profileName
          profileTokenId
          profileTokenIdHex
        }
      }
      followingProfileId
    }
  }
}

Check If User A Is Followed By User B

This can be done by providing the user B's identity either a 0x address, ENS, cb.id, Lens, or Farcaster on the Wallet top-level query's identity input and the user A's identities in the socialFollowers.

For example, check if betashop.eth (user A) is followed by ipeciura.eth (user B):

Try Demo

Logohttps://app.airstack.xyz/query/2S7JXZj5cj
Show me if betashop.eth is being followed by ipeciura.eth

Code

If you need to check multiple users A simultaneously, then simply provide more identities into the identity input in the socialFollowers nested API.

query isFollowing { # Top-level is User B's Identity (ipeciura.eth)
  Wallet(input: {identity: "ipeciura.eth", blockchain: ethereum}) {
    socialFollowers( # Here is User A's Identity (betashop.eth)
      input: {filter: {identity: {_in: ["betashop.eth"]}}}
    ) {
      Follower {
        dappName
        dappSlug
        followingProfileId
        followerProfileId
        followingAddress {
          addresses
          socials {
            dappName
            profileName
          }
          domains {
            name
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

If betashop.eth is followed by ipeciura.eth on either Lens or Farcaster, then it will appear as a response in the Follower array as shown in the sample response and thus should be classified as a known sender.

Otherwise, betashop.eth will be considered an unknown sender and should be classified as one in the UI.

Get The Most Recent Followers of User(s)

You can get the list of most recent followers of users(s) by providing either 0x addresses, ENS names, Lens profiles, or Farcasters:

        }
      }
      blockchain: ALL
      limit: 200
      order: { followerSince: DESC }
    }
  ) {
    Follower {

        addresses
        domains {
          name

        }
      }
      followerProfileId
      followerTokenId
      followingAddress {
        addresses
        domains {
          name
        }

          userAssociatedAddresses
        }
      }
      followingProfileId
    }
  }
}

Get All Followers of User(s) that has ENS Domain

You can get the list of all followers of user(s) and check if they have any ENS domain:

Try Demo

Logohttps://app.airstack.xyz/query/tqP6R0fzfr
Show me all followers of users that have ENS domain

Code

query MyQuery {
  SocialFollowers(
    input: {filter: {identity: {_in: ["lens/@stani", "lens_id:0x024", "fc_fname:dwr.eth", "fc_fid:3", "vitalik.eth", "0xeaf55242a90bb3289dB8184772b0B98562053559"]}}, blockchain: ALL, limit: 200}
  ) {
    Follower {
      followerAddress {
        addresses
        domains { # Show all domains owned by followers
          name
          isPrimary
        }
        socials {
          dappName
          profileName
          profileTokenId
          profileTokenIdHex
          userId
          userAssociatedAddresses
        }
      }
      followerProfileId
      followerTokenId
      followingAddress {
        addresses
        domains {
          name
        }
        socials {
          dappName
          profileName
          profileTokenId
          profileTokenIdHex
          userId
          userAssociatedAddresses
        }
      }
      followingProfileId
    }
  }
}

You can use the followerAddress.domains that will return an array to see if there's any domain owned by the follower.

If the length of the followerAddress.domains array is non-zero, then the follower has at least one ENS domain. Otherwise, it does not have any ENS domain.

Get Users that have a certain amount of Followers

You can get the list of all users of that have a certain amount of followers, e.g. at least 1000 followers:

Try Demo

Logohttps://app.airstack.xyz/query/tZyC2q2Be6
Show me all users that have at least 1000 followers

Code

query MyQuery {
  Socials(
    input: {
      filter: { followerCount: { _gte: 1000 } }
      blockchain: ethereum
      limit: 200
    }
  ) {
    Social {
      dappName
      profileName
      profileTokenId
      profileTokenIdHex
      userId
      userAssociatedAddresses
      followerCount
    }
  }
}
