Sunsetting Kaia Support on Dune Analytics
Kaia support on Dune Analytics will officially sunset on 6th September 2026. Beyond this date, Kaia datasets will cease updating and existing queries, dashboards and API endpoints will no longer process live block data.
This follows the public Governance Council decision regarding the Dune renewal proposal (read the GC outcome here : https://square.kaia.io/Proposal/Detail?id=1000047)
While Dune has been a key tool for ecosystem analytics, we encourage builders to utilise our robust network of dedicated indexers and block explorer APIs to ensure faster, more scalable long-term data access.
Platform Impact
- Live Queries & Dashboards: Visualisations will freeze at the final sunset block height and stop refreshing.
- API Endpoints: Applications calling Dune’s API for Kaia data will stop receiving information.
- Account Queries: Your saved SQL code will remain in your Dune account, but the underlying Kaia database tables will be decommissioned.
Step-by-Step Data Export Guide
To ensure your team retains all historical metrics and query logic, complete the following actions before 6th September:
| Data Asset | How to Back Up in Dune | Recommended Target |
|---|---|---|
| SQL Code | Copy raw SQL text directly from the Dune query builder. | GitHub / Internal Docs |
| Query Results | Use the Download CSV button on result tables or call GET /v1/query/{query_id}/results/csv. |
Local Storage / Data Warehouse |
| Charts & Graphs | Use the widget export menu to download visual representations as PNG images. | Reporting Slides / Archive |
| Automated Feeds | Fetch historical JSON/CSV dumps using the dune-client SDK. |
S3 / Database |
Transitioning Your Workflows: Alternative Data Sources
We do not want any team left without critical on-chain data. Please begin migrating your data dependencies to the following officially supported alternatives:
- Kaiascan API (For direct blockchain data & endpoints):
- If you rely on Dune to fetch token balances, transaction histories, or smart contract logs, the Kaiascan OAPI offers a comprehensive suite of endpoints (including an Etherscan-compatible API) to replace those queries.
- Dedicated Indexers (For custom, complex queries):
- If you use Dune to map complex smart contract events or track specific decentralized applications, we recommend deploying a subgraph or indexer. Kaia has integrated with top-tier indexing providers including Goldsky and SubQuery Network.
- Explore the Kaia Indexers Documentation to get started.
