getAccountInfo RPC Method

Returns all information associated with the account of provided Pubkey

params​

string required Pubkey of account to query, as base-58 encoded string.

object optiona Configuration object.

  • commitment

  • encoding

    • Values: base58 base64 base64+zstd jsonParsed
    • Default:

    • Encoding format for Account data. See Parsed Responses.

      • base58 is slow and limited to less than 129 bytes of Account data.
      • base64 will return base64 encoded data for Account data of any size.
      • base64+zstd compresses the Account data using Zstandard and base64-encodes the result.
      • jsonParsed encoding attempts to use program-specific state parsers to return more human-readable and explicit account state data.
      • If jsonParsed is requested but a parser cannot be found, the field falls back to base64 encoding, detectable when the data field is type string.

  • dataSlice

    • Request a slice of the account's data.
      • length: <usize> - number of bytes to return
      • offset: <usize> - byte offset from which to start reading

  • minContextSlot

    The minimum slot that the request can be evaluated at.
