Abstract: This paper is concerned with studying the problems of smart city ecosystem functioning. The work considers the influence on ecosystem sustainability of external and internal influences on infrastructural, network, digital, institutional, resource elements of a smart city. The author proposes the principles of assessing the sustainability of a smart city ecosystem (infrastructural saturation, the level of development of network connections and digital technologies, the absence of failures of the institutional environment, minimization of transaction costs), implemented through the indicators of the number of stakeholders, the use of network and digital potential of the municipality, the level of institutional saturation, determined by the method of building an institutional atlas, the level of comparative transaction costs, determined by the construction of transaction functions. The author also proposes possible directions of further research in terms of expanding the theoretical and instrumental base of research
