Working in the Testnet
0x API and 0x Protocol can be accessed on the Goerli testnet, or by forking Ethereum mainnet into your own testnet.
A hosted 0x API for the Goerli testnet is available at https://goerli.api.0x.org/ which offers a subset of DEX sources available on Ethereum mainnet.
To view the currently supported sources on Goerli refer to https://goerli.api.0x.org/swap/v1/sources. At the time of writing this guide
0x, MultiHop, SushiSwap, Uniswap, Uniswap_V2 and Uniswap_V3 are supported. The token you want to use for testing must have liquidity on at least one of these sources.For general information about the /swap endpoints see 0x API Swap
The following is example code for swapping 0.1 ETH for DAI on Goerli using Metamask.

Refer to @0x/contract-addresses to find the addresses of the latest deployment on Goerli and then follow our limit order related guides below, using the Goerli contract addresses, and chain id 5.
When forking Ethereum mainnet all current Ethereum state as of the block that you fork will also be available in your private fork, all contracts addresses, and balances tokens will be exactly like the Ethereum mainnet. The main advantage with this is that you can test quotes from our hosted Ethereum mainnet 0x API on your private forked network without having to run any additional infrastructure or spend any real funds on test transactions.
This guide assumes that you already have a working Hardhat project, if not please refer to the official Hardhat Getting Started Guide.
Configuring Hardhat to create a private fork
First, you need to add a
hardhat network in your Hardhat config file.// hardhat.config.ts
// ...
const config = {
solidity: "0.8.4",
networks: {
hardhat: {
forking: {
url: RPC_URL, // This should be your Alchemy/Infura RPC URL
},
},
},
};
// ...
Now, for your tests, you can find an account on Ethereum mainnet with the appropriate balances required for the swaps that you want to test locally, then using the hardhat_impersonateAccount you can act as that account on your private fork. You can then request a valid quote for that account from Ethereum mainnet 0x API and submit the transaction on your private fork. Keep in mind that you may need to set allowances if you are trading with other tokens than Ethereum.
