# RWA API

Documentation for integrators using the **Anchored** RWA API to build stock trading, cash movement, and portfolio services.

Authenticate with API key + HMAC on every request. Choose **self-submit on-chain** or **One Click delegated** execution for orders, cash operations, and stock operations.

Current mainnet deployments are on Base, Monad, and Ethereum. Use `x-api-p: Anchored` for the Anchored product unless your API key is explicitly provisioned for another product context.

## Base URL

Production:

```
https://rwa-api.anchored.finance/rwa/trading
```

All paths start with `/api/v1`. Example:

```
GET https://rwa-api.anchored.finance/rwa/trading/api/v1/symbols
```

For HMAC authentication, the `URI` uses `/api/v1/...` only — no domain or `/rwa/trading` prefix.
