# List active Finney subnets

`GET /api/v1/subnets`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.metagraph.sh`
- URL: `https://api.metagraph.sh/api/v1/subnets`
- Auth: none required

List active Finney subnets. The screening fields ride the `fields=` projection: `gpu_required`/`min_vram_gb` are the MINER hardware floor from the subnet's own min_compute.yml (four-valued -- `required`, `not-required`, `declared-inconsistently`, and null for the subnets whose repo publishes no readable file -- a null is NOT a no), and `also_on` names the testnet twin. The whole declaration, both roles and the commit it was read at, is the `compute_requirements` section on /subnets/{netuid}/overview.

    - `observed_through` string, date-time, nullable: How far the tier that answered this request has observed at all. A payload reporting no activity at or before this time is a measured absence; one whose subject is newer is outside coverage, not empty. Null when the horizon is unreadable.

      - `built_under` string, required: Contract version the served artifact was built under.
      - `live` string, required: Current (live) contract version the Worker is running.
  - `ok` true, required
  - `schema_version` 1, required
