# Total Supply

Users can retrieve the total supply of a token from the Magna platform. This endpoint returns the self-reported total supply from the cap table (the minted supply that the project reports), not the smart contract max supply.\
\
This endpoint is designed for token data provider compatibility (ex. Coinmarketcap) and returns a plain text number for easy integration with external systems.

Access Control: 

This endpoint requires the `EXTERNAL_STATS_READ` scope, which is more restrictive than full access API keys. You can generate a scoped API key with `EXTERNAL_STATS_READ` permissions from your project settings at `/settings/api-keys` (called "Statistics API Key"). This allows third-party integrations to access token statistics without full project access.

Example request:

```sh
curl -X GET https://app.magna.so/api/external/v1/tokens/{your_token_id}/total-supply?id={your_token_id} \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -H 'x-magna-api-token: magna_project_api_token'
```

* `magna_project_api_token` (required) - replace with your actual Magna API token
* `your_token_id` (required) - with your token id

Response example:

```json
1000000000
```
