Each task has `type`, `status`, `retractionStatus`, the associated `takedownProvider` name, submission/retraction timestamps, and an optional `externalId` for the provider's tracking ID. [Learn more about takedown tasks](../general/concepts#takedown-tasks). * **blockedBy** - List of platforms currently consuming (blocking) the asset. Each entry has a `consumer` slug (e.g. `metamask`, `google-safe-browsing`, `quad9`), the platform's display `name`, and a `consumedAt` timestamp indicating when the platform started blocking the asset. ## Quick Start ### Authentication Include your API key in the `X-API-KEY` header: ```bash theme={null} X-API-KEY: ``` ## OpenAPI ````yaml POST /asset/search openapi: 3.0.3 info: title: ChainPatrol External API -
