# API Reference

### Overview

The API exposed by the EN is designed to be Web3-compliant. Any deviation from the Ethereum behavior is likely unintended, and we encourage users to report such discrepancies.

### \`eth\_\` Namespace

Data getters in this namespace operate in the L2 domain. They deal with L2 block numbers, check balances in L2, and more.
