Does Polymarket have an API?

Yes. Polymarket exposes three services: Gamma (market discovery), CLOB (order book and trading) and Data (history and analytics), plus a WebSocket feed. Reading market data needs no key; placing orders requires API credentials and EIP-712 signing.

Is the Polymarket API free?

Reading market data via Gamma, Data and the public CLOB endpoints is free and needs no authentication. You only need credentials to place or cancel orders.

Which Polymarket SDK should I use in 2026?

The V2 line: py-clob-client-v2 (Python), @polymarket/clob-client-v2 (Node), or the official Rust client polymarket_client_sdk_v2. New projects can use the unified beta SDK (polymarket-client / @polymarket/client). The old py-clob-client 0.34.x is V1 and archived.
