Horizon (Stellar)

Last updated:

Applies to: Stellar

In more detail

Collection endpoints are cursor-paged (cursor, order, limit) and many can be streamed with Server-Sent Events. Horizon focuses on classic Stellar data; smart-contract (Soroban) data is served by Stellar RPC, a separate service.

How much history a Horizon server returns depends on how it is operated, so the history available is a property of the server, not of the network.
