IsDelegate API

Public endpoint to verify IsDelegate attestation chains on a wallet

The IsDelegate API is a public endpoint (no authentication) that checks whether an Ethereum wallet has a valid IsDelegate attestation chain. Use it to verify that a wallet is delegated to act on behalf of a verified identity before trusting it (e.g. in agents, integrations, or access control).

Endpoint: GET /api/v1/is-delegate/{walletAddress} Category: Zipwire Attest


Request

GET https://zipwire.io/api/v1/is-delegate/{walletAddress}
Parameter
Type
Description

walletAddress

string

Ethereum wallet address (0x-prefixed, any case)


Response

The endpoint always returns HTTP 200 OK. Success or failure is indicated in the response body. Check the success field to determine the result.

Success

The wallet has a valid IsDelegate attestation chain.

Error codes

Code
Meaning

InvalidWalletAddress

Wallet address format is invalid.

NoAttestationsFound

ValidationFailed

Attestation failed validation (e.g. revoked or expired).

ProofPackValidationError

ProofPack validation failed.

InternalError

Server error; try again later.


How validation works

  • The wallet address is checked against standard Ethereum address rules.

  • Each attestation is validated (revocation, expiration, and chain integrity).

  • The delegation chain is followed to a trusted root (e.g. Zipwire identity attestations).

  • Authority continuity is checked so the chain is consistent.
