# Migrate from Mobula

> A 1:1 mapping from the Mobula API to the Octav API

A drop-in mapping from the **Mobula API** to Octav. The biggest wins:

* **One call instead of two.** Mobula splits a portfolio across `wallet/portfolio` (tokens) and `wallet/defi-positions` (DeFi). Octav returns wallet tokens, DeFi positions, and net worth from a single [`GET /v1/portfolio`](/api/endpoints/portfolio).
* **Reliable DeFi coverage.** Mobula's DeFi decoding is inconsistent run-to-run. Octav decodes positions consistently across chains and protocols.
* **Sanity-checked pricing.** Mobula can emit long-tail price outliers — a single mispriced defunct token can blow up your total. Octav validates pricing so `networth` stays trustworthy.
* **P\&L and cost basis** come back in the same response.

## Endpoint mapping

| Use case                   | Mobula                                                          | Octav                                                                       |
| -------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Wallet tokens (all chains) | `GET /wallet/portfolio`                                         | [`GET /v1/portfolio`](/api/endpoints/portfolio) → `assetByProtocols.wallet` |
| DeFi positions             | `GET /wallet/defi-positions`                                    | same `GET /v1/portfolio` → `assetByProtocols.<protocol>`                    |
| Net worth                  | `GET /wallet/portfolio` → `total_wallet_balance` (+ DeFi total) | same response → `networth` + `chains`                                       |
| Transaction history        | `GET /wallet/transactions`                                      | [`GET /v1/transactions`](/api/endpoints/transactions)                       |

<Tip>
  Tokens and DeFi both come from a **single** `GET /v1/portfolio` call. There is no separate positions request to merge.
</Tip>

## Authentication

Mobula uses a raw `Authorization` header (no scheme prefix). Octav uses a standard `Authorization: Bearer` token.

<CodeGroup>
  ```bash Mobula theme={null}
  curl "https://api.mobula.io/api/1/wallet/portfolio?wallet=0x6426af179aabebe47666f345d69fd9079673f6cd" \
    -H "Authorization: YOUR_MOBULA_KEY"
  ```

  ```bash Octav theme={null}
  curl "https://api.octav.fi/v1/portfolio?addresses=0x6426af179aabebe47666f345d69fd9079673f6cd" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_OCTAV_KEY"
  ```
</CodeGroup>

## Wallet token balances

Mobula's `wallet/portfolio` returns `data.assets[]`, a flat array of tokens with per-chain splits in `cross_chain_balances`. In Octav, wallet tokens live under the `wallet` protocol, already grouped by chain:

```
assetByProtocols.wallet.chains.<chain>.protocolPositions.WALLET.assets[]
```

<CodeGroup>
  ```javascript JavaScript theme={null}
  const OCTAV_KEY = process.env.OCTAV_API_KEY;
  const address = "0x6426af179aabebe47666f345d69fd9079673f6cd";

  const res = await fetch(
    `https://api.octav.fi/v1/portfolio?addresses=${address}&includeImages=true`,
    { headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${OCTAV_KEY}` } }
  );
  const [portfolio] = await res.json(); // /v1/portfolio returns one entry per address

  // Flatten wallet tokens across every chain
  const wallet = portfolio.assetByProtocols.wallet;
  const tokens = Object.values(wallet.chains).flatMap((chain) =>
    Object.values(chain.protocolPositions).flatMap((pos) => pos.assets)
  );

  tokens.forEach((t) =>
    console.log(`${t.symbol} on ${t.chainKey}: ${t.balance} ($${t.value})`)
  );
  ```

  ```python Python theme={null}
  import os
  import requests

  OCTAV_KEY = os.environ["OCTAV_API_KEY"]
  address = "0x6426af179aabebe47666f345d69fd9079673f6cd"
  res = requests.get(
      "https://api.octav.fi/v1/portfolio",
      params={"addresses": address, "includeImages": True},
      headers={"Authorization": f"Bearer {OCTAV_KEY}"},
  )
  portfolio = res.json()[0]  # one entry per address

  wallet = portfolio["assetByProtocols"]["wallet"]
  for chain in wallet["chains"].values():
      for pos in chain["protocolPositions"].values():
          for t in pos["assets"]:
              print(f"{t['symbol']} on {t['chainKey']}: {t['balance']} (${t['value']})")
  ```

  ```bash cURL theme={null}
  curl "https://api.octav.fi/v1/portfolio?addresses=0x6426af179aabebe47666f345d69fd9079673f6cd&includeImages=true" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_OCTAV_KEY"
  ```
</CodeGroup>

| `asset.contracts[]`            | `contract`                             | Per-chain token address. Native tokens use the zero address in Octav.            |
| `cross_chain_balances.<chain>` | per-chain split                        | Octav splits by `chainKey` natively; no `cross_chain_balances` object to unpack. |

| `estimated_balance`            | `value`                                | USD value of the holding.                                                        |
| `asset.logo`                   | asset logo (with `includeImages=true`) |                                                                                  |

## Net worth and per-chain breakdown

In Mobula you add `data.total_wallet_balance` (from `wallet/portfolio`) to the DeFi positions total to get a full net worth. Octav returns the already-summed `networth`, plus a per-chain breakdown in `chains`.

| Mobula                                   | Octav                                      | Notes                                           |
| ---------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------- |
| `data.total_wallet_balance` + DeFi total | `networth`                                 | Single field, tokens and DeFi already summed.   |
| —                                        | `chains.<chain>.value`                     | Per-chain total (Octav adds this).              |
| —                                        | `chains.<chain>.key` / `chainId`           | Chain identifier + numeric ID.                  |
| —                                        | `chains.<chain>.valuePercentile`           | Share of net worth per chain (Octav adds this). |
| —                                        | `openPnl` / `closedPnl` / `totalCostBasis` | P\&L and cost basis (Octav adds these).         |

```javascript JavaScript theme={null}
console.log(`Net worth: $${portfolio.networth}`);
Object.values(portfolio.chains).forEach((c) =>
  console.log(`${c.name}: $${c.value} (${c.valuePercentile}%)`)
);
```

## DeFi positions

Mobula returns DeFi from a **second** call, `wallet/defi-positions`, as an array of `{ protocol, positions[] }`. Octav returns the same money in the first response under `assetByProtocols`, keyed by protocol, then chain, then position type (`LENDING`, `LIQUIDITYPOOL`, `STAKED`, `FARMING`, …).

<CodeGroup>
  ```javascript JavaScript theme={null}
  // Every protocol except the "wallet" bucket is a DeFi position
  const defi = Object.entries(portfolio.assetByProtocols).filter(
    ([key]) => key !== "wallet"
  );

  defi.forEach(([key, protocol]) => {
    console.log(`${protocol.name}: $${protocol.value}`);
    Object.values(protocol.chains).forEach((chain) => {
      Object.entries(chain.protocolPositions).forEach(([type, pos]) => {
        console.log(`  ${type}: $${pos.totalValue}`);
        pos.assets.forEach((a) => console.log(`    ${a.symbol}: $${a.value}`));
      });
    });
  });
  ```

  ```python Python theme={null}
  for key, protocol in portfolio["assetByProtocols"].items():
      if key == "wallet":
          continue
      print(f"{protocol['name']}: ${protocol['value']}")
      for chain in protocol["chains"].values():
          for ptype, pos in chain["protocolPositions"].items():
              print(f"  {ptype}: ${pos['totalValue']}")
  ```
</CodeGroup>

**Field mapping**

| Mobula (`defi-positions[]`)       | Octav                                     | Notes                                                                     |
| --------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `protocol.name`                   | `assetByProtocols.<key>.name`             | Keyed by protocol.                                                        |
| `positions[].type`                | position `TYPE` key                       | e.g. `LENDING`, `LIQUIDITYPOOL`, `STAKED`.                                |
| `positions[].chain_id`            | `assetByProtocols.<key>.chains.<chain>`   | Strip the `evm:` prefix to get the numeric chain id (e.g. `evm:1` → `1`). |
| `positions[].tokens[].symbol`     | asset `symbol`                            |                                                                           |
| `positions[].tokens[].amount`     | asset `balance`                           | Human-readable in both.                                                   |
| `positions[].tokens[].amount_usd` | asset `value`                             | USD value, precomputed.                                                   |
| `protocol.logo`                   | protocol logo (with `includeImages=true`) |                                                                           |

<Tip>
  Mobula's DeFi coverage varies between runs and can miss protocols. Octav decodes positions consistently and folds every protocol into the same `assetByProtocols` map, so you never call a second endpoint.
</Tip>

## Transaction history

Swap Mobula's `wallet/transactions` for [`GET /v1/transactions`](/api/endpoints/transactions).

<CodeGroup>
  ```bash Mobula theme={null}
  curl "https://api.mobula.io/api/1/wallet/transactions?wallet=0x6426af179aabebe47666f345d69fd9079673f6cd" \
    -H "Authorization: YOUR_MOBULA_KEY"
  ```

  ```bash Octav theme={null}
  curl "https://api.octav.fi/v1/transactions?addresses=0x6426af179aabebe47666f345d69fd9079673f6cd" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_OCTAV_KEY"
  ```
</CodeGroup>

Octav categorizes each transaction (swap, deposit, stake, bridge, …) and prices transfers in USD. See the [transaction types reference](/api/reference/transaction-types).

## Key differences

* **Calls per portfolio.** Mobula: `wallet/portfolio` + `wallet/defi-positions`. Octav: one `GET /v1/portfolio`.
* **DeFi reliability.** Mobula's DeFi decoding is inconsistent run-to-run. Octav decodes positions consistently.
* **Pricing.** Mobula can emit long-tail price outliers that distort totals. Octav sanity-checks pricing so `networth` stays trustworthy.
* **Auth header.** Mobula sends the raw key in `Authorization`. Octav uses `Authorization: Bearer <key>`.
* **Chains.** Both cover EVM **and** Solana. Octav returns them in the same shape from one endpoint.
* **Chain ids.** Mobula formats DeFi chain ids like `evm:1`; strip the `evm:` prefix for the numeric id. Octav keys chains by name (`ethereum`) with `chainId` alongside.
* **Grouping.** Mobula returns `data.assets[]` (tokens) and a separate `defi-positions[]` array. Octav groups `assetByProtocols` → `chains` → `protocolPositions` → `assets[]`, with a dedicated `wallet` bucket for loose tokens.
* **Billing.** Mobula charges roughly 1 credit per chain. Octav charges **1 credit per call** (see [pricing](/api/pricing)).
* **P\&L.** Octav adds `openPnl`, `closedPnl`, and `totalCostBasis` at no extra call.
