Description

Context

PR #209 adds docs/references/ic-dashboard-api.md covering all five public ICP Dashboard REST APIs:

  • IC API (ic-api.internetcomputer.org/api/v3/) — metrics, nodes, subnets, governance, canisters
  • Metrics API (metrics-api.internetcomputer.org/api/v1/) — time-series metrics
  • ICRC API (icrc-api.internetcomputer.org/api/v1/) — ICRC token data
  • Ledger API (ledger-api.internetcomputer.org/api/v1/) — ICP ledger data
  • SNS API (sns-api.internetcomputer.org/api/v1/) — SNS/governance data

Task

Add contextual cross-references from the relevant doc sections to the APIs they'd use most:

  • Tokens / ledger pages (PR docs: Batch 8 — tokens, ledgers, and cycles concepts #215docs/concepts/tokens-ledgers): link to ICRC API and Ledger API from ledgers.md or a dedicated digital assets guide
  • Governance pages (PR docs: Batch 7 — governance deep dives #216docs/concepts/governance-deep-dives): link to SNS API from governance or SNS concept pages
  • Protocol canisters reference (docs/references/protocol-canisters.md): link to IC API and Metrics API from the relevant sections (Bitcoin metrics, network metrics)
  • Chain-key tokens / digital assets guides: link to ICRC API for token balance and transaction queries

The reference page is at docs/references/ic-dashboard-api.md and is already linked from the references index and the performance concept page.
