# Developer API

### Building the Future of Data

While we're actively developing and expanding its capabilities, some features outlined below will be rolled out progressively.

**Current Features and Upcoming Developments:**

* **Quest Integration (In Progress):** We're actively working on API endpoints to programmatically interact with the Quest system for requesting and fulfilling data requests. Our roadmap includes functionality to set parameters, define pricing, and manage the data acquisition lifecycle. This will empower you to automate data collection and contribute to a thriving data ecosystem.
* **Data Access and Model Integration (Early Stages):** Access to datasets and protocol-native models via the API is in its early stages. We envision a standardized interface for building AI-powered applications, refining models, and contributing to model improvements. Stay tuned for updates on this functionality.&#x20;
* **Permissionless Client Expansion (Available):** Our open API and SDK are available now, enabling you to build custom clients and integrations. Expand the Eidon ecosystem and be a part of its growth. This allows for tailored user experiences and a wider range of data applications.&#x20;
* **Decentralized Storage Integration (Future Goal):** While currently centralized, our architecture is designed for a future transition to decentralized storage. The API will adapt as we implement partitioned and fully decentralized storage models, ensuring long-term data integrity and availability for your applications.

**Phased Approach to Decentralization:**

We're committed to a phased approach to decentralization. The API is designed to evolve alongside the network as we transition to more decentralized models, ensuring a stable and secure experience for developers.

**Getting Started:**

Explore our current documentation to start building on the Eidon Network. Join our community to stay informed about updates, new features, and contribute to the future of decentralized data. Contact our team with questions or for assistance.
