Parameters

ParameterTypeDescription
coldkey_ss58stringColdkey whose identity to read.

CLI

btcli query identity --coldkey <ss58|name> --json

Python

Namespace method (autocomplete, signature help):

import bittensor as bt

sub = bt.Subtensor()
result = sub.identity.identity(coldkey_ss58="5F...")

Or dispatch by name, as an agent would:

result = sub.read("identity", coldkey_ss58="5F...")

Async is the same surface awaited: async with bt.Subtensor() as client:.
