Returns all information associated with the account of provided Pubkey

Parameters #

string required

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

object optional

Configuration object containing the following fields:

commitment string optional

encoding string optional

Encoding format for Account data

Values: base58base64base64 zstdjsonParsed

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 object optional

Request a slice of the account's data.

length: <usize> - number of bytes to return
offset: <usize> - byte offset from which to start reading

Info

Data slicing is only available for base58, base64, or base64 zstd encodings.

minContextSlot number optional

The minimum slot that the request can be evaluated at

Result #

The result will be an RpcResponse JSON object with value equal to:

<null> - if the requested account doesn't exist
<object> - otherwise, a JSON object containing:
- lamports: <u64> - number of lamports assigned to this account, as a u64
- owner: <string> - base-58 encoded Pubkey of the program this account has been assigned to
- data: <[string, encoding]|object> - data associated with the account, either as encoded binary data or JSON format {<program>: <state>} - depending on encoding parameter
- executable: <bool> - boolean indicating if the account contains a program (and is strictly read-only)
- rentEpoch: <u64> - the epoch at which this account will next owe rent, as u64
- space: <u64> - the data size of the account
