getAccountInfo

Parameters

• <base-58 encoded string> - Pubkey of account to query

• <object> - (optional) Config object:

  • encoding: (optional) <string> - data encoding for each returned transaction

  Accepts one of the following strings:
  ["json" (Default), "jsonParsed", "base58" (slow), "base64"]
  "jsonParsed" encoding attempts to use program-specific parsers to make the transaction.message.instructions list more human-readable; if a parser cannot be found, the instruction falls back to default JSON.

  • dataSlice: (optional) <object> - limits the returned account data using the provided offset: <usize> and length: <usize> fields
    Only available for "base58", "base64" or "base64+zstd" encodings.

Results

<object> - a JSON object containing:

• lamports: <u64>, number of lamports assigned to this account
• owner: <base-58 encoded string>, 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>, indicates if the account contains a program (and is strictly read-only)
• rentEpoch: <u64>, the epoch at which this account will next owe rent
