SHA-2 Multihash Creation
Name up to 65536 exact caller bytes as a canonical lowercase, unpadded base32 multihash. Select SHA2-256 (default) or SHA2-512; return the address plus explicit algorithm code, digest length and digest/envelope Base64url. Uses native multiformats and SHA-2. Caller media type is a label, not content validation. Full JSON escaping admitted. No fetching, storage, author authentication or IPFS-file construction. Malformed carriers refused before payment.

How to buy with x402
- Send the request without payment. The server answers
402 Payment Requiredwith a base64 JSONPAYMENT-REQUIREDheader holding the amount, asset, network and payee. - Have your wallet sign an EIP-3009
transferWithAuthorizationfor exactly those terms (an x402 client library does this for you). - Repeat the identical request with the signed payload in the
PAYMENT-SIGNATUREheader. - The server verifies, runs the operation, settles, and returns
200with the result and aPAYMENT-RESPONSEheader carrying the settlement receipt.
Read the price without paying
curl --include --request POST --header 'accept: application/json' --header 'content-type: application/json' --data-raw '{"carrier":{"mediaType":"application/octet-stream","contentBase64":"YWJj"},"algorithm":"sha2-512"}' --url 'https://market.561.group/v1/data/multihash-create'
This request authorizes nothing; it returns the live payment terms. Read the full explanation of x402.
