# Get Lighter on Robinhood Chain liquidation events

`GET /v1/rh-lighter/liquidations/{symbol}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.0xarchive.io`
- URL: `https://api.0xarchive.io/v1/rh-lighter/liquidations/{symbol}`
- Auth: API key in header `X-API-Key`

Get Lighter on Robinhood Chain liquidation events in a bounded time range using cursor pagination. Served from June 26, 2026 20:10:26 UTC. Rows from before live capture began on August 22, 2026 carry `source: "bucket"` and an empty `raw_json`, and live-captured rows carry `source: "ws"` and the venue's raw JSON. The earlier rows were backfilled from the venue's finalized export. Explicit endpoint cost is 3 credits per request.

## Path parameters

- `symbol` string, required

## Query parameters

- `start` union: An instant: Unix milliseconds, or an RFC 3339 string such as `2026-01-01T00:00:00Z` (encode a `+` offset as `%2B`). An unparsable value answers 400 `invalid_time_range`.
  - integer: Unix milliseconds.
  - string, date-time: RFC 3339 instant.
- `end` union: An instant: Unix milliseconds, or an RFC 3339 string such as `2026-01-01T00:00:00Z` (encode a `+` offset as `%2B`). An unparsable value answers 400 `invalid_time_range`.
  - integer: Unix milliseconds.
  - string, date-time: RFC 3339 instant.
- `cursor` string
- `limit` integer

    - `count` integer: Number of records returned
    - `has_more` boolean: Cursor-paged routes: whether another page follows. `next_cursor` is present exactly when this is `true`. A final page can be empty when the previous page was exactly full; `has_more` is `false` on it.
    - `next_cursor` string: Opaque cursor for the next page, present exactly when `has_more` is `true`. Pass it back unchanged as `cursor` with the same filters. Do not parse or construct it.
    - `request_id` string, uuid, required: Unique request ID for support
    - `symbol` string: Per-symbol routes: the canonical public symbol the response describes (for example `BTC`, `xyz:TSLA`, `HYPE-USDC`, `#0`).

    - `coverage_from` string, date-time: Earliest coverage for the requested symbol and data type. Present only when the requested window ends before coverage begins.
    - `notice` string: Human-readable advisory about the response. Used when the requested window ends before coverage begins for the symbol, and on CVD responses that are one page of several; may carry other advisories in future.
    - `finalized_through` string, date-time: Two-tier datasets (Lighter trades): data at or before this instant is final; later data is preliminary.
    - `requested_end` string, date-time, nullable: The `end` the request asked for, echoed when it was clamped to `finalized_through`.
    - `clamped_to` string, date-time, nullable: The boundary the request's `end` was clamped to, when clamping occurred.
    - `preliminary_row_count` integer, nullable: Number of preliminary rows in this response, on routes that intentionally serve preliminary data (Lighter `/recent`).

## Other responses

- `400`: Invalid request: a parameter, symbol, interval, cursor or time range failed validation. See `error_code`.
- `401`: Authentication required: the API key is missing or invalid.
- `403`: The request is outside the plan's history window or per-request span, or the key is not allowed to make it.
- `429`: Rate limit, concurrency limit or monthly credits exceeded. See `error_code`.
- `default`: Any other error. The body is an `ErrorResponse`; branch on `error_code`. A 503 (`upstream_unavailable`) carries `Retry-After`.
