Lighthouse REST API: /validator
The /validator endpoints provide the minimum functionality required for a validator
client to connect to the beacon node and produce blocks and attestations.
Endpoints
| HTTP Path | Description |
|---|---|
/validator/duties |
Provides block and attestation production information for validators. |
/validator/duties/all |
Provides block and attestation production information for all validators. |
/validator/duties/active |
Provides block and attestation production information for all active validators. |
/validator/duties
Request information about when a validator must produce blocks and attestations
at some given epoch. The information returned always refers to the canonical
chain and the same input parameters may yield different results after a re-org.
HTTP Specification
| Property | Specification |
|---|---|
| Path | /validator/duties |
| Method | POST |
| JSON Encoding | Object |
| Query Parameters | None |
| Typical Responses | 200 |
Request Body
Expects the following object in the POST request body:
{
epoch: Epoch,
pubkeys: [PublicKey]
}
Duties are assigned on a per-epoch basis, all duties returned will contain
slots that are inside the given epoch. A set of duties will be returned for
each of the pubkeys.
Validators who are not known to the beacon chain (e.g., have not yet deposited)
will have null values for most fields.
Returns
A set of duties for each given pubkey.
Example
Request Body
{
"epoch": 1203,
"pubkeys": [
"0x98f87bc7c8fa10408425bbeeeb3dc387e3e0b4bd92f57775b60b39156a16f9ec80b273a64269332d97bdb7d93ae05a16",

]
}
Note: for demonstration purposes the second pubkey is some unknown pubkey.

/validator/duties/all
Returns the duties for all validators, equivalent to calling Validator Duties while providing all known validator public keys.
Considering that duties for non-active validators will just be null, it is
generally more efficient to query using Active Validator
Duties.
This endpoint will only return validators that were in the beacon state in the given epoch. For example, if the query epoch is 10 and some validator deposit was included in epoch 11, that validator will not be included in the result.
HTTP Specification
| Property | Specification |
|---|---|
| Path | /validator/duties/all |
| Method | GET |
| JSON Encoding | Object |
| Query Parameters | epoch |
| Typical Responses | 200 |
Parameters
The duties returned will all be inside the given epoch (Epoch) query
parameter. This parameter is required.
Returns
The return format is identical to the Validator Duties response body.
/validator/duties/active
Returns the duties for all active validators, equivalent to calling Validator Duties while providing all known validator public keys that are active in the given epoch.
This endpoint will only return validators that were in the beacon state in the given epoch. For example, if the query epoch is 10 and some validator deposit was included in epoch 11, that validator will not be included in the result.
HTTP Specification

Parameters
The duties returned will all be inside the given epoch (Epoch) query
parameter. This parameter is required.
