4

Submit a signed quote

The market maker sends a signed quote message with odds and max_fill_micros.

Longshot responds with quote_ack after receiving and routing the quote.
6

Environment URLs

EnvironmentAPI Base URLWebSocket Gateway URL
External gatewayhttps://api.longshot.xyzwss://api.longshot.xyz/ws
The WebSocket gateway is for market-maker bot connections: authentication, RFQ broadcasts, quote submission, and quote results all happen over that socket. Public HTTP reference reads and MM-authenticated taker-intel reads use the API base URL.
Production market-maker traffic must use WSS. Do not connect production bots to direct ws:// origin endpoints for auth, RFQ broadcasts, quote submission, or quote results.
