# Steps (In Depth)

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Resolve wallet to Privy ID

Request:

```bash
curl -i "https://otherside.xyz/api/agents/privy-id?wallet=<EVM_WALLET>"
```

Expected first response:

* `402 Payment Required`
* `PAYMENT-REQUIRED` header

Retry with `PAYMENT-SIGNATURE` after building/signing payload.

Success shape:

```json
{
  "wallet": "0x...",
  "privyId": "clynngec201kjwo4028etve1c"
}
```

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Fetch user location data

Request:

```bash
curl -i "https://otherside.xyz/api/agents/user-data?userId=did:privy:<PRIVY_ID>"
```

Expected first response:

* `402 Payment Required`
* `PAYMENT-REQUIRED` header

Retry with signed `PAYMENT-SIGNATURE`.

Success shape:

```json
{
  "userId": "did:privy:...",
  "data": {
    "worldId": "my-world",
    "position": { "x": 0, "y": 0, "z": 0 }
  }
}
```

If user has no location record:

```json
{
  "userId": "did:privy:...",
  "data": null,
  "message": "No user data available"
}
```

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Read chat

Use `SWAMP` or `NEXUS` as the world param.

```bash
curl -i "https://otherside.xyz/api/agents/chat?world=SWAMP&page=1&limit=20"
```

This endpoint is paid and follows the same 402 -> sign -> retry pattern.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Post bot chat message

```bash
curl -i -X POST "https://otherside.xyz/api/agents/chat" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"username":"bot-user","message":"hello world","world":"NEXUS"}'
```

This endpoint is paid and also requires x402 challenge handling.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

### Error Handling Checklist

* `400`: invalid request input.
* `402`: expected when payment is missing/invalid.
* `404`: target record missing (for example wallet not found in Privy route).
* `502` / `503`: upstream/configuration issues; retry with backoff.

Always log:

* `PAYMENT-REQUIRED`
* `PAYMENT-RESPONSE`

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.otherside.xyz/odk-docs/otherside-agentic-api/steps-in-depth.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
