Using web3.js
import { Connection, PublicKey } from '@solana/web3.js';
const connection = new Connection('https://rpc.orbitflare.com');
const publicKey = new PublicKey('vines1vzrYbzLMRdu58ou5XTby4qAqVRLmqo36NKPTg');
const accountInfo = await connection.getAccountInfo(
publicKey,
'confirmed'
);
Notes
-
The
jsonParsed encoding is only available for certain account types:
- Stake account
- Token account
- Token mint
- Token metadata
-
When using
dataSlice, the data field will be limited to the requested slice only.
-
The account data may be encoded differently based on the program that owns the account.
