Get a timestamp

Last updated on
GET 

/timestamp/v3/timestamps/:timestampId

Returns a timestamp identified by its ID.

Request

Path Parameters
    timestampId stringrequired

    Multihash of the sha256 of the original hash, encoded in multibase base64url.

    timestampId = multibase_base64url(multihash(sha256(original_hash)))

    Example: let's assume the original hash is a sha3-224 with the value

    0xb2a8e000d1f25778cecf6b29fc0e7f811fb5f4a3a8230585e9056921
    .

    It is stored in the smart contract with the timestamp ID

    0xb2a8e000d1f25778cecf6b29fc0e7f811fb5f4a3a8230585e9056921
    , which corresponds to the sha256 of the original hash.

    The multihash representation of

    0xb2a8e000d1f25778cecf6b29fc0e7f811fb5f4a3a8230585e9056921
    is
    EiCPQS4deZG8y1FXlG9sW1vDfMbpulXYTkn0HWj2OWd61A
    (encoded in base64url).

    At the API-level, the timestamp ID is then

    uEiCPQS4deZG8y1FXlG9sW1vDfMbpulXYTkn0HWj2OWd61A
    , i.e. it's the multibase base64url (prefix "u") encoded multihash.
