Use Data Anchoring with KAS

As explained in the design section, you can anchor your service chain data to Kaia main chain. This page introduces how to enable data anchoring via KAS (Kaia API Service).

Once it is turned on, a node in your service chain can periodically anchor its chain data (block data) to Mainnet or Kairos as a proof of existence and immutability of the service chain. This ensures the security and credibility of the service chain.

Preparation for Using KAS

This section introduces the pre-requisites to use KAS for data anchoring.

Sign Up KAS (Kaia API Service)

First, you need to sign up KAS on the KAS console website to get a KAS account. Please visit the website above and sign up in KAS.

main page

sign up

Create Credential

After login, you can create your credential like below. The AccessKey ID and Secret AccessKey, or Authorization will be used to call KAS APIs.

credential

Anchor API

KAS provides Anchor API, which is designed for data anchoring and surely it is the one that you are going to use for anchoring task.

Create Operator Address

To anchor service chain data via KAS, there should be a Kaia address, enrolled in KAS, that actually send anchoring transaction to Kaia. So, before you set up your service node, you need to create an Kaia account called "operator" via KAS. Please, use KAS console to create this account.

It is important to be noticed that you must first select the chain in Kaia to which you want to anchor your data on the top right corner of the KAS console page. You should create an operator for each chain (Mainnet/Kairos).

select chain

Create an operator as below.

create operator

Then, you can check your operator list like below. Please note that the address of an operator is required for setting your service chain node.

create operator

Configure Service Chain Node

After obtaining API credentials, Anchor API information (API endpoint and parameters), and an operator account in KAS, then It is time to set up your service chain node. You need to edit the configuration file (kscnd.conf, kspnd.conf, ksend.conf) of your service chain node like below.

You should set SC_SUB_BRIDGE=1 and all SC_KAS_ prefix items.


...
# service chain options setting
...
SC_SUB_BRIDGE=1
...
SC_KAS_ANCHOR=1 # 1: enable, 0: disable
SC_KAS_ANCHOR_PERIOD=10 # Anchoring block period
SC_KAS_ANCHOR_URL="https://anchor-api.klaytn.com/v1/anchor" # Anchor API URL
SC_KAS_ANCHOR_OPERATOR="0x6A3D565C4a2a4cd0Fb3df8EDfb63a151717EA1D7" # Operator address
SC_KAS_ANCHOR_ACCESS_KEY="KAJM4BEIR9SKJKAW1G3TT8GX" # Credential Access key
SC_KAS_ANCHOR_SECRET_KEY="KyD5w9ZlZQ7ejj6lDF6elb61u8JH/mXdKqhgr3yF" # Credential Secret key
SC_KAS_ANCHOR_X_CHAIN_ID=1001 # Mainnet: 8217, Kairos: 1001
...

Run Service Chain Node

Now you are good to go. You can run your service chain node. You will see the log message related with KAS Anchor API like below.

List of Transaction

In KAS console website, you can see the list of anchoring transactions that the operator of your service chain has sent at "KAS Console - Service - Anchor - Operators" menu like below.
