Lido Finance Authentication

Authentication

Lido's three public REST APIs declare no securitySchemes in their OpenAPI documents and the docs state plainly that "Lido APIs are strictly for read-only access". There are no API keys, no OAuth flows, and no scope surface. The only credentialed surface in the Lido developer stack is The Graph gateway API key required to query the Lido subgraph — that key is issued by The Graph, not by Lido.

Lido Finance declares 0 security scheme(s) across its OpenAPI definitions.
