<Update label="July 29, 2026" tags={["Pipes SDK", "Release"]}>
  ## Pipes SDK 1.0, in beta

  Pipes SDK is a TypeScript library that gets onchain data into your database. You describe the events you care about, and a pipe streams them into ClickHouse, Postgres, BigQuery, or Parquet files, decoded, typed, and kept consistent through reorgs. The 1.0 line is on npm under the `beta` tag.

  ## Adding API keys to gateways
