# Introduction

We actively contribute to the development of the Metaplex Digital Assets Standard API (DAS) that is used to interact with Solana NFTs, SPL (Solana Program Library) Tokens and Token-2022 (Token Extension Program), ensuring also production-ready indexing and caching layer.

DAS API provides a fast and scalable way to query digital assets on the Solana blockchain, including Fungible Tokens, Regular and Compressed NFTs. The decompression of NFTs and data caching is done server-side, providing a convenient way to access Digital Assets data and metadata. It is available via all our shared and dedicated endpoints, fully integrated with our RPC Pool infrastructure.

DAS API offers a comprehensive set of features for querying digital assets, including:

* The transaction history of any compressed asset
* Current token holders and balances
* Search and filtering by owner, creator, authority, or collection
* Data across regular and programmable NFTs, compressed NFTs, MPL Core, fungible tokens, and metaplex agent tokens
* Merkle proofs for compressed assets

## How to use

The DAS API is enabled by default on all our shared and dedicated endpoints. You can use any of our Solana mainnet RPC endpoints with the DAS API methods, and your queries will be routed automatically.

Available methods are listed and documented in the [API Methods](https://github.com/rpcpool/customer-docs/blob/gitbook/digital-assets-api/digital-assets-api/metaplex-digital-assets-api/README.md) section.

The DAS API is billed on a per-request basis ($50 per million requests). To see detailed billing information, check the Billable Items Chart in your account panel at the customers.triton.one.

[Ratelimits](https://github.com/rpcpool/customer-docs/blob/gitbook/rpc-pool/ratelimits.md) as per your standard RPC Pool will apply.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.triton.one/digital-assets-api/introduction.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
