WAX-RPC API

The WAX Blockchain RPC API includes public endpoints used to get block information, block history, node information, and node producer information. Exposed through nodeos plugins, this API is available on the WAX mainnet and your local development environment.

TIP

If you're making local requests, nodeos must be running.

Environment	URL
WAX mainnet	Check node availability at https://validate.eosnation.io/wax/reports/endpoints.html (opens new window)
Local Testnet	http://127.0.0.1:8888

You can make API requests directly to blockchain endpoints:

curl --request POST \
  --url http://127.0.0.1:8888/v1/chain/get_info \
  --header 'content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8'

You can also call these endpoints using cleos commands:

cleos -u [api-url] get info

Additional Information and Third-Party Tools

Refer to RPC API documentation for a list of API calls.

eosjs is a javascript API SDK that's used to easily communicate with the WAX RPC API. To simplify development, you can use this tool to access blockchain endpoints.
