}Returns metadata for an IPFS object without downloading it: its
cid, size,
cumulativeSize (total DAG size in bytes), type (file or dir), and blocks.
Useful to check size/type before fetching, e.g. NFT media.
Requires the IPFS add-on (
X-Api-Key). Node-only — there is no Blockfrost
fallback; if the self-hosted node is unavailable this returns 503.Example
curl "https://nexus.gerowallet.io/api/ipfs/stat?path=QmV7xw3QtGgqWR3PXtJSJdFKkW4ZhELmBwJS6edhVyKFVL" \
-H "X-Api-Key: $NEXUS_API_KEY"
Authorizations

API key (programmatic access — recommended)
Send your API key in the X-Api-Key header. Keys start with nxs_ and are
created in the dashboard (or via POST /api/keys with a session JWT).
Each key is scoped to one chain and one network (for example
CARDANO_MAINNET), fixed at creation time. It cannot query a different network
on the same chain, and it cannot query a different chain at all. A mismatched
network parameter returns 400 Network Mismatch. Create one key per chain
and network under the same account.
This is the credential most integrations should use.
Query Parameters
Maximum string length:
500
