The Across API is being upgraded. V4 will be deprecated soon and integration support for V4 has ended. To learn more, reach out here.

Direct Route Linking

Link users directly to a pre-filled bridge route on the Across UI.

Across's frontend supports direct route linking — construct a URL with query parameters to drop users directly into a pre-filled bridge route. No API calls, no wallet connection required upfront.

How It Works

Append query parameters to the base URL to pre-select the origin chain, destination chain, and tokens:

https://app.across.to/bridge-and-swap?from=8453&to=42161&inputToken=BAL&outputToken=USDC

Direct route linking

This opens the Across bridge with Base → Arbitrum selected and BAL → USDC as the token pair.

ParameterDescriptionExample
fromOrigin chain ID8453
toDestination chain ID42161
inputTokenInput token symbolBAL
outputTokenOutput token symbolUSDC

All parameters are optional — use any combination.

For the full parameter reference, examples, chain ID table, and use cases, see the complete guide.
