IPFS Delegated Routing V1 HTTP API is one of 40 APIs that [IPFS](https://apis.io/providers/ipfs/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Routing, DHT, Content Discovery, Peer Discovery, and IPNS. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

The Delegated Routing V1 HTTP API allows IPFS clients to offload content routing, peer routing, and IPNS resolution to a remote server without running a full DHT node. Endpoints include provider lookup by CID (/routing/v1/providers/{cid}), peer record lookup by Peer ID (/routing/v1/peers/{peer-id}), IPNS name resolution and publication (/routing/v1/ipns/{name}), and optional DHT closest-peers queries (/routing/v1/dht/closest/peers/{key}). The IPFS Foundation operates a public delegated routing endpoint at delegated-ipfs.dev.
