spec_type: Webhooks
surface: websocket
description: >-
ShapeShift unchained provides realtime updates about blockchain transactions
(pending and confirmed) over a WebSocket interface, alongside its REST API, on
the same per-chain api.<chain>.shapeshift.com hosts. Clients subscribe to an
address (pubkey) and receive transaction events as they enter the mempool and
as they confirm. The first-party @shapeshiftoss/unchained-client library wraps
this WebSocket subscription surface.
events:
- name: transaction
trigger: A transaction affecting a subscribed address is observed.
states: [pending, confirmed]
keyed_by: pubkey (subscribed address)
delivery:
transport: websocket
model: subscribe/push
auth: none (public)
notes: >-
Captured as a Webhooks/event-surface artifact: the realtime transaction
subscription is documented in the unchained project and implemented by the
official client, but ShapeShift does not publish a formal AsyncAPI document or
a per-message JSON schema, so no AsyncAPI spec is saved (none is fabricated).
The concrete WebSocket URL path and message schema should be read from
@shapeshiftoss/unchained-client.
